Where in the UTCO-World is Mayor Corroon?

So I get it that Utah County is exactly a hot bed of support for the Corroon for Gov campaign, but I can't recall hearing about any campaign events in Utah County. I wouldn't spend a ton of time down here either, but you can't completely ignore Utah County. Richard Davis must be pulling his hair out. Just sayin...you know...Richard Davis must be pulling his hair out.

And to tag along on that note, just for fun; Can you tell me what's different between the campaign logo above versus the one below? And I'm not talking "Mayor" v. "Governor." There's something the Corroon Campaign isn't emphasizing in the statewide race.

International House of...Politics?

You've heard of "pancakes and politics" right? You know, when candidates buy delegates/would-be voters breakfast?

Just when I was about to launch my own IHOP version; a world-wide political think tank/non-profit/save-the-world/its-all-about-the-kids foundation... the lawyers go and get in the way!

IHOP (the pancake maker) sues IHOP (the prayer center) over trademark

Next Stop. Havana?

Cuba is reforming their economic system. As one of the last few communist holdouts its amazing really it's lasted this long.

One gem from the Cuban statement: "Our state cannot and should not continue supporting businesses, production entities and services with inflated payrolls," the union said, "and losses that hurt our economy are ultimately counterproductive, creating bad habits and distorting worker conduct."

Well duh.

I've always thought the travel and trade restrictions to Cuba are silly. They are a remnant of the Cold War and should be abolished. The White House as recently as last month has indicated they may move to lift the restrictions. With any luck we could all be relaxing on a Cuban beach a year from now.

Who's in?

To Report or Not Report. That is the...

I was a bit surprised to see this piece from Paul Rolly of the Trib.

It's an article regarding the Florida pastor who wanted to burn the Koran. Interestingly, Paul in this case argues that there are some stories the press should not report. It's insightful and spot on.

If a tree falls in the forest...
