I’ve had cocktails in Salt Lake City on multiple occasions. Not a big deal, even though there are some arcane rules, like bartenders being legally prohibited from pouring you a double or beer on tap having to be 3.2 or less. Happy hours are illegal as well. But strip joints? That’s news to me. Haven't been to Utah in over 15 years. Back then the rules could be really bizarre. I remember seeing so-called "private clubs" where liquor was served. There was one at the timeshare hotel I was staying at as well as one in a pizza place we ate at. I believe they were required to charge memberships good for a year and where a member was allowed to invite several guests. Those "club" areas were clearly separated with glass partitions. It's way past any statute of limitations, so I'll admit that I brough in alcohol from out of state. I really didn't know what the laws were. However, it's my understanding that they rarely crack down on it other than for state residents, where they might tail someone loading a case of beer if they see Utah plates. |

And the hits keep on coming.
www.sltrib.com/news/2024/01/14/tim-ballard-faces-4-new-criminal/Celeste Borys, one of the women suing Tim Ballard, flew to California with her lawyer last week to file criminal complaints alleging the founder of Operation Underground Railroad sexually assaulted her in four jurisdictions, according to her attorney. Borys, who was Ballard’s executive assistant from March 2023 until last fall, previously filed a criminal complaint with the Lindon Police Department in Utah County. She now has also reported assaults to police departments in San Diego, San Clemente, the San Jose suburb of Campbell, and to Los Angeles Airport police, Borys’ attorney Suzette Rasmussen told The Salt Lake Tribune. |

I thought someone was going to post that the movie is now available to stream on Amazon Prime. But nobody seems to care, it’s way down on my list of movies I want to see.

The film was released on July 4, 2023, by Angel Studios. It was a sleeper hit, becoming one of the most successful independent films in history. It has grossed $250 million against a $14.5 million budget. It received mixed reviews from critics, while audience reception was highly positive.
A huge success obviously. I want to thank all the Volley Talk bitches for drawing attention to this film so it could be watched more. Thank you bear

So, in the sequel, the twist will be that the actual sex offender is the cop, like IRL? Hmm, that could work. Kind of like the end of “The Sixth Sense.”

Kind of like the end of “The Sixth Sense.” Thousand bucks says it beats any project you came up with in the past year. Let’s be honest. You’ve just lost touch with what people want to watch |

It’s not a terrible film, though. It’s not great by any means - it’s slow, and the dialogue is really clunky - but the production values are solid, and the film looks good. A serviceable thriller, for sure. It’s not performing particularly well on streaming, but there could be a couple of reasons for that - although it probably doesn’t help the guy the story is based on turned to be a real dirtbag. |

You’ve just lost touch with what people want to watch I've just now noticed this pattern from Holiday. That saying something like "let's be honest" as a lead in to saying something fundamentally dishonest. I hadn't seen it before, because he's dishonest most of the time, so this phrasing was always way down in the dishonesty noise. |

Or the phrase "You know as well as I do", when it's obvious Holiday knows nothing. Or "I'll answer if you do" and then he never answers. Common gaslighting. |
