“Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.”
–Benjamin Franklin

I'm sick of Franklin.
It's not as bad as the Eagles or Cars burnout. But still.
What's the big Labor day thing in Denver?
I keep looking but nada.
OTOH – in the spirit of being the change I want to see … I'm fine with just doing nothing, centered on beer.
A Taste of Colorado? (and nobody is burned out on KC and the Sunshine Band quiet yet)
I’m a nobody.
…but that booty you’re sporting Dio lives on!
it could very well be happy hour somewhere
"…nobody is burned out on KC and the Sunshine Band quiet yet.”
Ick, Michael! I was burned out on them in the late-70s, and I was just a kid.
What??? They’ve been around since the 70’s??? We’ve just graduated from dial-up out here in the Colorado Outback and I’ve just discovered them 😳
Next up: Katrina and the Waves
I was thinking the Colorado Outback's next big group would be A Flock of Seagulls and their hit "Telecommunication."
Given our knee jerk reactions to progress (won't someone think of the cows!) it's a head scratcher how we ever got the intertubes out here.
Are you in favor of the Spaceport plans, Michael?
I seem to recall that it might involve digging up or paving over some of Rocky Mtn Arsenal & Wildlife refuge, but can’t Research that right now.
I don't remember the RMA/WR part (it was proposed to be operated out of Front Range airport). I'm a pilot so I'm generally interested in anything aviation-related. The only thing I recall (recently) about the arsenal was the accidental planting of hemp by the Army!
Hopefully, the bison enjoyed the hemp! I guess that the planned Spaceport is 20 miles away from the eastern edge of the RMA/WR, so probably minimal impact.
My son, who machines precision air and spacecraft parts, is jazzed about the Spaceport being built, and commercial space flight taking off in CO.
Katrina and the Waves?
One-hit wonders.
The music of KC & The Sunshine Band has appeared on many a soundtrack, including this 1986 film:
Returning home from work last night, I saw a couple of dipshits standing on a corner in Broomfield next to a janky-ass folding card table waiving "Recall Polis" signs made with children's construction paper and magic markers. This isn't exactly what you'd call a spare-no-expense operation. The sight was so pathetic I almost couldn't laugh so hard that I needed to pull over and compose myself.
Almost.
We have a dedicated follower or two and some printed campain style signs, but – no, not a major operation the likes of which would be needed to collect enough signatures. Good enough maybe to expand the
donorsucker base, though.And since to all appearances the true goal of the recall campaign is feathering Pat Neville's nest, reaching a greater number of fleecible rubes is indeed good enough.
Those tables, manned by old white people, are all over Mesa and Garfield counties. They don't appear to get much traffic.
