My family and I are brand new to Utah. We moved to Orem from Alaska to be near our daughter at Brigham Young University, and because our younger children all want to go to BYU. We love this school and everything it stands for. As new residents, we barely know a handful of people here in Orem. On the other hand, I have no doubts that two well established, prominent men such as Dr. Ned Hill and Dr. Steve Albrecht have a lot of friends and supporters here, so I’m bracing myself for a negative response to this, nevertheless, I feel like someone has to say it: BYU needs to discipline Ned Hill and Steve Albrecht for their indiscretion. (more…)

It started simply enough.

Pittmans.net was supposed to be our family website, a place for sharing photos, disseminating news and keeping in touch with our loved ones around the world.

Blog907 (.com and .net) was for sharing comments on current events, particularly those of interest to those who live in area code 907: Alaskans.

Then life happened and we found ourselves in area code 801 (Utah) instead!

So, as of today, Blog907.net and Blog907.com have been put out to pasture, and their articles and comments have been migrated to TWO NEW BLOGS.

Blog801 (.com and .net) will continue from this point on and feature commentary on current events of local, national or global interest, including politics, news, sports, music and modern culture.

Journal.Pittmans.net will chronicle the adventures (yeah, I know I’m stretching it there) of the Pittman family.

So this post is the demarcation point. Everything before this post was Blog907; everything after this post is Blog801.
