Articles like this have a tendency to make me a bit misty. Just when you give up oh humanity, along comes something that changes your mind.

Beyond the boundaries of nations, language, customs, and traditions, we all cry, laugh, dream, hope, and love, a glowing universal spirit that flows from each and every man, woman and child touching us all as champions of good will.
What a beautiful story you have posted for us to read this morning. Thank you.

This is just one on the nice things about Utah. If you are working in your yard and you look like you need help your neighbor will just turn around and go back in his house. In a few minutes there will be people pulling in the drive way because the neighbor had put out the word someone needs help. Of course in the mean time the neighbor is back out and helping before the backup get there.

Well, it never fails that some moron will always try to contradict my clear statement of who is the most cynical man on the planet.
I hate everyone.
Because everyone is stupid.
Because that can't see the obvious truth that I am right.
INSERT BIG GRIN
Your shot

You mount a very persuasive argument.
I am reconsidering...
To: CathyRyan
I should add that I have developed a healthy respect for Utah generally and its people specifically.
Its restrained "marching to a different drummer" has been well noted.
The worth of who people are is always measured by what they do.

Finally, the bus arrived at a dollar store. "Not exactly where you want Olympians to pick up Olympic souvenirs," Hemmert said. Yeah. Every darn item in those stores is "MADE IN CHINA."
