Walk to any bar you want, stroll in and have a cold one. You deserve it!

Great news - on the few trips that I have made to Utah the whole private club thing thru me for a loop but I got over it pretty quickly. On another note, the state has some awesome geography, that's for sure!

Strangely there are still areas in the UK where you can't get a drink either - I was amazed (and sober) when I found myself in one.

I wonder what Utah's currently death rate is for alcohol-related auto accidents? I wonder if this will change that?

I've never heard of this. That's...Odd. Membership fees for a beer?

I liked what the guy who gave his opinion had to say:
"It helped keep strange people out of here" Laughing emoticon

Phew, don't even get me started. If that were the only oddity we have to deal with here, I'd be in paradise.

No lane splitting allowed.
Everything closes down on Sunday.
Can you say prude?
Humidity? What's that?
A new governor who denies global warming.
The lowest emissions standards in the nation (and the air quality to prove it)
And on and on and on.

But also:
Never have met friendlier and more willing-to-help folks then here.
Weather: sunny.
Outdoors: ample with lots for every taste.
Traffic: what's that?
Scenic roads: everywhere.
Want everything for yourself alone? Have at it, every Sunday.
Economic slump: yet to hit hard, if at all.
Crime: okay, we know how to spell it.
Scooter-friendly (at least in the University and college towns)
And on and on and on.

Why, thank you. BTW, what is the recipe you use for your organic fertilizer?
