In California, in the 4th grade, you learn about state history and your parents are tortured by being forced to stay up until all hours of the night gluing sugar cubes together to recreate a mission. Fun! In Utah, in the 4th grade, you learn about state history and your parents are tortured by being forced to sit through a program about the history of the state, complete with costumes, songs, and speakers that need a prompt from the teacher every 3 lines or so. I'll choose the Utah option, thank you very much. Less work for me!
Nixon's Utah play was last week. Here is the video they showed while we were waiting for the program to start. This guy had way too much time on his hands:

That was painful. The video, the singing, the dancing, the speaking... all of it.
I really was actually hoping for another group to get up and sing some more or do another rap about the mormons... or at least one more verse of 'Utah!...'
This is the place. Where the pioneers came and Brigham Young said... THIS IS THE PLACE!....
According to Dick Cavet in an episode of Hollywood Squares, the phrase was "This Is The RIGHT Place!"
I'd whole-heartedly agree that the song and dance video was painful. Even with the use of a favorite Beach Boy's song, still painful.
State history. Interesting. Utah does have an interesting state history though. Your kids are becoming so cultured by learning about California AND Utah!
