Earlier this month I went on a trip to San Diego. After being in school for 4 years and working fulltime I never had the chance to go on trips. I was nervous because it had been years since I had been on a plane, but it actually wasn't that bad. My brother and I…… MORE
Saying Goodbye
Steve Connor died the other day. I foolishly thought that everyone would remember Steve, but few did. It is a sign, I guess, that I am getting old. None of the TV guys knew who he was, nobody from the newspaper did either, and they ran his obit. Only Tom Scott and I, among the…… MORE
E Pluribus Wyoming
Most colleges in the United States have a Latin motto. Some are simple. Harvard's Latin motto is fairly famous. It's the single word "Veritas", which means "truth". The University of Oregon's is "Mens agitat molem", which translates to "minds move mountains". I like that one. Others are more complex and sometimes confusing. The motto of…… MORE
Bad Grandpa
Over the weekend I went to see the movie "Bad Grandpa". Watching the previews I had a feeling the movie would be funny, but I wasn't expecting how gross it would be. It's not a film you would let your kids see. Now with that aside, anyone still considering seeing it should, because it…… MORE
Another Busy Week
I went camping, hunting, and shooting over the weekend. I had traveled to Blue Lake which is near Cascade. And although it's early October and the sun isn't shining, I figured I should get one more good camping trip in. The place was absolutely beautiful and at nighttime the stars reflecting off of the lake…… MORE
I Can’t Drive 70!
I might be off a few years on the benchmark age, but I do believe seniors should go through a few more tests starting every year at age 70 to get a drivers license. Most of them go to the doctor every year for a physical. Just have the doctor have them take a reaction,…… MORE
Bye Bye
This is the first of two bye weeks for the Boise State football team. The bye comes at a good time for BSU as they lost two of their first five games. The Broncs young defense needs the extra week to go back to fundamentals, and sharpen up their defense against the pass across the…… MORE
AGT
The finale of my summer show was on last night. I have been watching America's Got Talent since it first started. I enjoy that reality show more than others because it shows all kinds of talents versus just singing or dancing. The point of watching the show for me is to pick my favorite act…… MORE
Conference Opener
There are five U.S. service academies. The oldest is the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York. It was founded in 1802. Next oldest is the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland, followed by the U.S. Coast Guard Academy at New London, Connecticut and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point,…… MORE
When Is Crime….Not A Just A Crime?
Earlier this week, The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), asked law enforcement to investigate the possibility of racial motive behind the recent string of vandalism of Mazzah Mediterranean Grill in Boise. A rock was thrown through their glass door, the establishment has had eggs thrown at them and had the word "murder" spelled out using…… MORE
