Where I be

[Kaos]

I'm out in Utah for the fourth or fifth time in the last three years.  

I used to think I wanted to live in Maine, but I've come around.  This is it.  This is the place I want to give up the South for.  

I'm in SLC.  I can drive for 30 minutes and be at 10,000 feet among some amazing ski resorts.  I can go 30 minutes in another direction and be in Park City where the Sundance festival is held.  I can drive for about three hours and be in some of the most beautiful desert imaginable.  Half the western movies you've ever seen have filmed scenes there.  

In the time it takes me to drive to Memphis or Nashville from where I live, I could be from here to Vegas, the Grand Canyon, Sun Valley Idaho, the Rockies.  

I can get used to the altitude.

I think I want to be there when you are at Sundance.  Tomatoes are gonna fly.

I been to the resort.  Went there accidentally on their craft fair day in the fall.  Denzel was allegedly there and so was Mr. Sundance.  

I figured it was a pretty liberal state but was wrong.  It seems solidly conservative.  Population breakdown? 

White	2,600,077
Some Other Race	150,596
Two or More Races	83,283
Asian	67,545
Black or African American	33,619
American Indian and Alaska Native	32,079
Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander	26,742

60% Republican, 20% Independent.  

The ONE drawback?  I saw several people wearing "Build the Wall" shirts the last few days.  I though that was odd for a state that has no border with Mexico.  When I looked closer, though, the words underneath said "Between Utah and California"   According to some of the folks I talked to, there is an increasing problem with asshats from California fleeing the disaster they wrought with their own ignorant policies and positions and then trying to impose that same horseshit here.  

Sort of the immigration issue as a whole, to me.  Why leave something that's grown unbearable to come to a place that's so much better and then try to recreate the shitty conditions that drove you out in the first place?  I don't understand that.

I feel this way about Alaska and Montana.  The wife and kids wouldn't be on board, but it would be nice to live there.

What in the wide world of sports would lead you to assume that a homogeneous, nearly theocratic state would be liberal?

I wasn't aware of the homo and theo tendencies.  I just never paid attention, I suppose.

Is that an invitation?  You should know that I like to cook breakfast in my boxers.

You thought Utah was liberal?? The last 2-3 general elections I think it has been the most lopsided gop leaning state in the country. Ahead of even Oklahoma and Alabama. It’s as white and conservative as it gets. And Mormon.

Would love Montana or Wyoming. Not sure I can take the winters. Really shortens skinny dipping season. Maybe I’ll just head to East Tennessee.

Damn, you fry bacon and sausage without a shirt?  You know that shit will burn your nips, right?
