I hate that lady. I got kicked off the bus a time or two, and it did the trick. Easy enough to make kids take the walk of shame without looking like you’ve lost complete control of yourself. Not at all sure how there’s anything to admire here.

I just paid for a well on my cabin property. Was not cheap! But, my permanent property value went up at least the value of the well cost, and now I’m one step closer to my off-grid bug-out dream. Was going to invest in my retirement instead, but feel much better about this one. Plus, now I can...

No, he lives down in Hurricane

A buddy of mine has an armada on 35’s, DIY hidden winch, and is almost done with his home built sliders. It did impressively well on our last outing. He’s considering swapping the rear axle for a titan one to be able to get a rear locker. He went with the calmini lift and hasn’t had any issues...

Will do. This isn’t my scenario, it was a nonsense application of the logic I was hearing, restated for philosophical banter. I guess when it comes to taxes, I have to agree with Cap’n Jack Sparrow - there’s only what a man CAN do, and what a man CAN’T do. If it can survive an audit, I’m doing...

Also, acknowledging election losses. Find out if this is a problem for Steve.

Got it. So I’m cool to buy a $90k Ram TRX but not a $45k f-150 for me and a $45k explorer for my wife. Word.

Notice I said liberals, not democrats. Fiscal liberalism is the most bi-partisan tenet in Washington.

I sort of agree. First, regarding bills having to be paid, this is the liberal line every single time we hit the debt ceiling. Rather than cut entitlements, programs, foreign spending, whatever, it’s framed as a moral responsibility to pay our bills. If enough people said no, they’d have to...

I applaud your Kantian moral imperative to be truthful to all governments everywhere. I will throw tea into the harbor and feel okay about it.

How much do you pay in taxes? When my accountant last year told me I was staring at a $90,000 tax bill, I changed from a philosophical libertarian to an insurrection-shaman libertarian. If I felt at all that the government was being fair with how it taxes and spends my money, I might feel a...

We just hit 30” snow water equivalent. 1983 record was 26, unofficial 1952 record was 28.8. Unlikely we will top this in our lifetimes, pretty crazy

Here’s my don’t move here campaign: “There’s like, so many Mormons still here you guys.” We just need to get the word out, keep ‘em scared.

Just for future reference, verbal agreements don’t mean anything legally when it comes to property lines. Even written agreement mean jack until/unless they are recorded with the county. Property line disagreements can be tough with neighbors. I had a big one with my last property, and it...

Er, emphasis on the trash. Some of us married Utah county religious girls and rely on this quality resource to make our wives a little more trashy, in all the good ways. 10/10 would recommend.

My BIL built a home close to utah lake about 15 years ago. One weirdo on his street built his house up super high with all these steps up to the front door, and was the butt of some jokes in the hood. Until the big winter of 2011 brought the groundwater up and every basement in the neighborhood...

It’s funny…but my last house was at the bottom of a hill and flooded from time to time. Current house is on a hill for that very reason 😎

In ‘83 they had a really late snowpack/cold spring, with a sudden change to 80* weather. ‘82 was also almost as big of a winter, so soil saturation was maxed out. It was the perfect combo, so the flooding was epic. You see the preparations happening with many reservoirs preemptively draining...

No need for a compromise, it’s possible to determine actual property lines, and actual legal rights. Then nobody has to feel shafted. Get a good survey, that will trump his “construction company GPS” bullshit lot line. If a surveyor says he is into your property line, he won’t go to court...
