Don't punish the gander for the comments made by a few geese. We all appreciate and gain from your input. None of the comments made were hateful. We're all childish at times. Please forgive us and forget what was said...and don't be a stranger!
Yours,
Rock |

Acca, thatnks for your comments and efforts, they are truly apprciated.
Uutah.com is a great site, mainly becuase of its variety. It's strong becuase it doesn't adhere to any sort of strict mission statement and has the involvement of wonderful people. I've met some folks in here like JP and Disc that became internet friends after some pretty raucous debates.
We all share a love for Utah, and many of us share an appreciation not only of good debate but of playing the dozens. And yeah, it gets out of hand sometimes and people get tweaked (but not me, never). Should we squash this, edit it out? I don't think so.
Back to variety: There are many times I visit this site just to read about new hiking spots and look at all the pretty pictures -- whether they're from canyoneering trips, high pointing, or jeep excursions. And there's content on the website I find obscene, but would never suggest it be removed. The Internet is a working experiment in anarchy.
Uutah has created a spot for all of us -- a diverse group. Just like Utah itself is a wild and wonderful place settled originally by outcasts and still a landing spot for "live and let live" pariahs. A few years ago I performed a same-sex wedding (that's where the Rev. part comes in) up in the La Sals, and at the end of the day realized it was the perect place for those of us who probably don't fit in elsewhere.

I have no idea what is going on here but I'm just going to blindly assume you are right because I'm pretty sure we were soul mates somewhere in Europe around the 12th Century. I'm just trying to figure out where your perfect husband fits into all this. |
