With the Utah vs. Brigham Young University game coming to a head, there is only one question left: Whose side is U President Michael Young on, anyway?

If it takes three Utah national parks being strip mined and polluted beyond recognition for the United States to realize it has a problem, then so be it, but I'm selling my house now, before the whole neighborhood goes.

Being "Facebook stalked" is very real. It's taken a while, but I've finally realized how exposed my Facebook profile left me, and how much I would rather not know about other people, too

Just imagine heading out to the desert for a few days to escape civilization, only to be greeted in Moab by oil derricks and other industrial accoutrements humming away and generating fantastic profits for energy companies, while the air and water are choked with pollution for everyone else's enjoyment.
