Died: Not soon enough for some people.
College: Bellarmine College BA 1972. Bellarmine College is named after St. Robert Bellarmine (Roberto Bellarmino, in Italian). St. Robert was responsible for the original prosecution of Galileo by the Catholic Inquisition. Mr. Yengich holds himself out as Galileo's revenge for the prosecutors.
Juris Doctor: University of Utah School of Law before it became the Antonin Scalia/Orrin Hatch "Conservatory of conservative politics and extremist right 'wing' anti-libertarian thought."

Firm: Yengich, Rich & Xaiz, or Xaiz, Rich & Yengich, or Rich, Yengich & Xaiz
Favorite Color: Red, for obvious reasons (think about it). Hint: (I am a Utah man), and, as his longtime law partner, Brad Rich, has claimed, "Mr. Yengich is a curious combination of red and red-neck."
Favorite Judge: All of them, they are so precious.
Favorite Athlete: Anyone without a tattoo showing.
What he wants to do when he grows up: I am not growing up; it's a waste of time.
Relations with the media: Yuck, the thought of relations with any of them … (think about it).
Heroes: Any curmudgeon who does not, would not, or could not accept phony contemporary values, e.g. Sam Clemens, Hunter Thompson, Marcus Tulius Cirero, Thurgood Marshall, D. Gilbert Athay, Jesus of Nazareth, Country Joe McDonald and Bugs Bunny.
Political Party: Former delegate to numerous state, county and National Democratic Conventions. So, he is not the member of an organized political party.
