It was a slow day, give me a break.

Another example ( If you don't mind me sharing. ) would be that one time I came across a blog that had a drawing of a diagram of a few tall skyscrapers. It showed the tallest buildings in cities like L.A., New York, London ect. It showed tallest to shortest and right at the very end it had a drawing of a PHONE BOOTH as Salt Lake's tallest building. Just stuff like that drives me nuts that Salt Lake seems to have a lack of respect.

By the way thanks jmonkey for those photo updates on state street. That bar and grill place looks cool. I never even notice that there before.
Zionide beat me to the punch on the Tribune article. I don't even drink and I was way excited to hear that the liquor laws were going to be changed, but now the GOP representatives have taken my hopes and dreams into an alley and beaten them to a — pulp! Then they bound, gagged, and blindfolded them just before putting them in the trunk of a car that drove for what seemed like miles upon miles, even though it was just 5 minutes to the Jordan River where they threw them in to swim with the (mutant) fishes.

Also, Projects, the man comparing the tallest skyscraper in Utah to a phone-booth was Maddox, who is a satirist who lives in Salt Lake City. The whole article was him making fun of Idaho actually. Check it: http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=idaho_blows
