the DENVER thread

but i dont remember the video presenter at all! WAIT I KINDA DO... GAHHH ITS LIKE, ON THE EDGE OF MY BRAIN

HI DERE

there hasn't been much snow here. it's cold now!

updates from denver folks, please.

i was accosted by some drunkard who congratulated me on tying my scarf "THE EUROPEAN WAY"

i then ate a mayonnaise sandwich (practically) which made me feel queasy.

what's marty coniglio saying now, keith?

Who wants to HANG?

me and parents were discussing how much it would disturb you if we got a thanksgiving meal IN A BOX

its almost tempting!!

Mom gets so stressed out about MEALS when I'm around. I must criticize too much.

I can't wait to chug some bazookas at Romas! Annnnd... man, what else will be going on? We gonna catch the new HP? Is that gay cowboy movie gonna be out?

food in boxes is ok with me.

But before I fly east, I will see the HOLY MODAL ROUNDERS movie at the Starz theatre as part of the Denver Film Festival, and afterwards Peter Stampfel will perform. I saw Weber & Stampfel play a couple of times in the early '80s, once at Folk City and once at the Mudd Club (these were in some city to the east of Denver by a good bit). I gave Stampfel a copy of my band's demo tape.

my parents are visiting denver next week. my dad will only want to golf

This was at least the second opportunity on this thread for a feckless Brit to pipe up with Things To Do In Denver With Your Dad hyuk-hyuk and I can't let it pass now.

AND, I wish you would come to Denver.

A.) Of all the things I've heard negative about Denver, it's always been "bland", "too far away from everything", "expensive", etc. I hadn't heard complaints about the transient population, though.

B.) I still don't get complaints about homeless people. You may get an occassional aggressive dude, just like you may get the occassional someone at the table next to yours incessantly jabbering into his cellphone. Besides that, they're just people who have a lot more problems than you do.

C.) Even if I were to bitch about homeless people, how could I possibly start with Denver? Those hobo's riding unicycles down the avenues of Berkeley, now THERE are some people I can roll my eyes at.

anyway denver is A DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH, and once the denver real world starts FORGET IT, population boom!

you will never let me forget my stinky greeley roots.

guys, i was wrong. the denver real world did nothing to attract new citizens.

=(

i am hungover in denver today! went and had a few too many drinks at gabor's. how come they can't make a mix drink taste normal???

can't wait to drink at high altitude

am I going to have to give you a piggy-back ride home???

ha, i don't know, but i hope altitude sickness is like chicken pox? after my last trip i should be immune for life.

just drink a ton of water and you should be fine!!

ok. i love water so that works out well.

so are you going to see the offspring or cowboy troy this weekend, or both?

things i did in denver: went for a run in wash park (wow you guys sure love volleyball and dogs), went to heritage square amusement park with the family and went down the alpine slide, ate some ice cream at bonnie brae (tasty), went to some lame bars in that area (lame).

did you see anyone in madras shorts?

sorry I couldn't make it out to do anything this weekend :/
