JCP, I did a lot of business in SLC with Mormons from 93-97. The Mormons always paid their bills exactly on time, and we never had to force payment (this is rare in the automotive supply world). Seems like they had a lot of integrity and always honored their agreements. A handshake was often all that was required. But, every single time I took customers to dinner we would drive to the mountains Northeast of Ogden to this place called the Timbermine. The Timbermine was in a "pro-alcohol" area, and had full bar. That always struck me as odd. GT TH

Message 21205392 I swear Chris, It feels like deja vu every 4 months or so - me and you and mcmannis were talking about mexican SLC restuarants back then too. Did you go to the place I recommended - the workers in there were fresh - just crossed the border - very authentic mexican food experience - even the diarrhea to complete the adventure - dont forget your pepto bismol - I remember when I was there the colleges had graduation going on one night - and everyone told us if we wanted to get laid go to this underground pizza place that was near the college - I don't remember the name but we went, long lines, weak beer, stuck up bitchy women, and the pizza was OK but nothing to get excited about. The next night we ate at some japanese steak house place across from the irish bar if I remember right, and it sucked - the asian place in the food court at the mall for 4 bucks tasted far better than that 30 dollar meal. For that to be a place of beat down religious women, we sure met a lot of drug using stuck up bitchz. I watched a special with martin sheen on the WHITE HOUSE last night, lincolns wife was given 20K for 4 years to furnish the white house - she spent that up in the first few months - SHOPPING MACHINE - poor lincoln~!
