SkyWest announces plans to aquire........

[USCtrojan]

Salt Lake is only part of the State.

No matter Comrade. The Baby Boomers are retiring. California has a lot of high property taxes. Californians like 2 things (Like most others) 1) Beaches and 2) Mountains. Beaches are rather expensive today, at least in CA. Going rate in San Diego for Ocean Front is around $2K per sq. foot. That's a lot of Jack. The second alternative is to live in the Mountains (Not that either has a priority over the other). Utah has great property taxes vs. California. A lot of retirees are moving here. All over, not just Salt Lake proper.

Practice your faith. I'm all for whatever makes you happy. Don't infringe on my quality of life by imposing your religious beliefs into my personal life. The Gov't of Utah does that--to an extent. That will change over the next few years, I believe as more "Gentiles" move to Utah. Just my opinion of course.

[Jon Rivoli]

I wanted all things
To seem to make some sense,
So we all could be happy, yes,
Instead of tense.
And I made up lies
So that they all fit nice,
And I made this sad world
A Par-a-dise.

And now back to our irregularly scheduled poking at SkyWest, Utah, and the Mormons.......

Nephi: Of goodly parents I was born
I've never drunk, I've never sworn
This is Lehi, he's my dad
Laman, Lemuel, they are bad
And who is this? Why this is Sam
Yes, this is Sam; [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Sam: Sam I am[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica] [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: That Sam I am, that Sam I am
I do not like that Sam I am [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Sam: In a tent, my father dwelt [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: And it's so hot, I think I'll melt [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lemuel: Our father's brain is out of whack [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: Yeah, it's too hot, I'm going back [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lehi: Then go and get the plates my dear [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: On second thought, I'm staying here[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica] [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Nephi: You said you'd leave and go away
Now all you want to do is stay? [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lemuel: That Nephi always gets his way [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: Here we are in this damp cave [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Sam: We would not be here if you'd behave [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Nephi: I will go and I will do
There's the angel, that's my cue
Laban's had too much to drink
Now he'll lose his head, I think [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Nephi: Look what I found, a brother from the quorum[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica] [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Sam: We will take him home, we will call him Zoram [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lemuel: Oh great, another pathetic life form[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica] [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: Our gold and silver we have spent
I do not like it in this tent [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lemuel: I cannot read the Liahona
I must have drunk too much Corona [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: We hate it here, we have no lives [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lehi: Then go back to the city and get some wives [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lehi: A tree, a tree, I see a tree [/FONT][FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]
The fruit is white, the fruit is free
A floating building, could it be?
Why do they laugh and stare at me? [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman, Lemuel, come and see [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: We will not eat your precious fruit [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lemuel: We will not wear a tie and suit [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: We will not help you build your boat [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lemuel: We do not think that it will float [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: No not this boat, it will not float
Not even in a shallow moat
I do not care what Nephi wrote [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lemuel: We will not eat your fruit I say [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: We will not eat it on a tray [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Lemuel: And we won't eat it in a tent
Not even if your clothes you rent [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: We'd rather have a can of spam[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]
L & L: We will not eat it, Sam I am [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Sam: You do not like it, so you say
Try it, try it, and you may
Try it and you may I say [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]Laman: Sam, if you will let us be,
We will try it, you will see[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica] [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, geneva, helvetica]L&L: Say, we like this fruit of life
Sorry that we caused such strife
You've saved us from an awful jam
Thank you, thank you, Sam I am[/FONT]

Most everything here has been quoted and been referenced as fact. If you don't like it, move along or erase it as you have threatened. I don't care either way. But your own posts point to their own bias.

Hey, you wanna kiss somebody's behind that's completely up to you. I don't judge Longhorn on any basis. On the basis of argument, I'm just pointing out fact. You have a problem with that? That's your problem not mine. Thanx for the heads up though. I don't give a crud either way. I was challenged and answered. You wanna blame somebody, blame the challenger not me.

Thank you for the kind words.

USC...I am not trying to be a prick about this. My point was that the thread started on one topic and quickly turned into mockery of a religion. As stated above, I was simply asking the group here to please get the thread back on track....which was about Skywest, not the Mormon religion.

Longhorn, point well taken and I accept. However, I was challenged, therefore I digressed. No disrespect.

I can assure you he is not kissing anyone rear. We 737 and I have had plenty of disagreements over the years, but they are always resolved in a professional manor. I like to think that I am very fair and do the best I can, so I am always open to any suggestions etc....there is no reason to make this out to be a bigger deal that it is...just asking for the topic at hand to continue and not tangent into something else. If you want to argue religious fact and fiction, go to the non aviation thread and start a topic there. I am sure there are many here that would enjoy it.

Oh that's rich!

The fact was that the thread got off topic!

You have a problem with that?

No, not me personally, but others might!

Then why make suck a BFD about it?

Now I have no idea what you're talking about. It sounds to me like you want to argue, just for the sake of arguing. If that's your case, get a wife, it will help all that!

Like I said, I'm not arguing that. I just don't want to be taken out of context here. Everything that has been discussed HAS BEEN FACT AND HAS BEEN QUOTED AS SO. I will provide references if need be. I don't mean to bash or demean. I WAS CHALLENGED AND RESPONDED TO CHALLENGE AS SUCH. Hopefully the thread provided you proof enough. I understand so let's get back to topic..... ??? Have a nice day.

Okay Longhorn. If you're gonna bring up history, let's go the whole way, shall we? USC has a historical 14 National Championships. How many does the Eyes of Texas have? USC has 7 Heismans, how many does Texas have? You have ONE game, and believe me, I'm still hungover from it, but let's not get disrespectful here......

As the Creator of this thread I must defend it's original intention....that is to make everyone laugh a little and poke fun at SkyWest, and whatever else comes along with that (i.e. Utah, Mormons, Empire Building, constructing Death Stars).

As usual, the thread is hijacked by humorless Wonderturds who can't wait to show us how much they know and how wrong everyone else is.

As is with most of these threads, many of us seem to think that our regional airline, ALPA, our own agendas, etc. etc., really matter. What really matters is family, laughter, good friends, good beer, and strong toilet paper.

So, everyone take a pill. It's the American Way.

What if, and I'm just hypothesizing here, the thread was started by, "a humorless wonderturd?" Questions that make you go hmmmm?
