Hear hear

Are you ready to have your mind blown?  The Estes Park Trail-Gazette photographer just happened to be standing outside the clerk's office at the very instant the petition circulators showed up to drop their petition off

The following partial post, from someone identifying himself/herself as "77COD" is the work of a genius.  You could never sit down and willfully craft something so brilliant, no matter how many monkeys you had helping you on an infinite number of typewriters.  The author has a future in writing, or wiring, or involuntary commitment, or something.  Look at this masterpiece of a sentence:

This is a family welcome community and to allow drugs to be blatantly sold is unconscious able. 

 Go to the eptrail website to see the word explosion in its entirety (as if an attempt were made to reassemble "Hamlet" from the remnants of dictionary pages wrapped around an explosive detonated in a dumpster), but just ponder that perfectly encapsulated opinion for a few seconds.

 "This is a family welcome community".  Diagram that partial sentence, if you please:  "a family welcome community" is the subject complement, with community obviously serving as the noun, and welcome the adjective (I guess?).  Or is "family-welcome" an (invented?) compound adjective?  It is an ethnographic puzzle, to be sure, possibly reflective of the author's marine background(?), or familiarity with peyote.

 But what we are all drawn to ponder with a mix of awe and befuddlement is the chalk outline around "unconscious able", derived from the Sanskit "able to be unconscious", a descriptive often applied to those higher organisms with self-awareness, for example, three-point shooters who just can't miss.  

 No wordsmith in a five-county area with unlimited access to methamphetamines could generate experimental prose to match "unconscious able".  77COD can walk away from "unconscious able" with the pride of bestowing upon the English-language an intricate indecipherable treasure, kind of like when the guy before you takes a burrito dump in an unflushable toilet.

Getting Hostiles

Image
According to the IMDb website, some portion of the movie Hostiles was filmed in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Does this look like Pagosa Springs? The movie is gorgeously shot, and the locations are breathtaking.  Being somewhat familiar with Pagosa Springs, though, I'm having trouble matching any of the exteriors with anything within a 10-mile radius of Pagosa Springs. According to IMDb The railway station at Chama, New Mexico served as the stand-in for Butte, Montana.  Chama is about 50 miles away from Pagosa Springs, and Pagosa Springs definitely sent some of its own down to Chama to serve as extras, one of whom is currently pedaling coal from the Chama location on Ebay. A big-budget movie filming in a community of 2000 is generally a newsworthy event.  Filming of Hostiles took place in the summer of 2016, and Pagosa Springs' newspaper of record, the Sun , made no mention of stars Christian Bale, Rosamund Pike, Wes Studi, or director Scott Cooper hanging out at P

The Estes Park Economic Development Corporation (EPEDC) is patting itself on the back because "the award for 'Small Community of  the Year' was presented" to them by the Economic Development Council of Colorado (EDCC) "on behalf of a town that sets its sights on building a more resilient, inclusive, and vibrant community and economy after recovering from the devastating Colorado floods in 2013." How has the following economic development been beneficial to Estes Park? The Estes Park Event Center, completed in spring 2014, has not brought all the big events expected from outside of our community.  It is not profitable. The Estes Park Medical Center (i.e., Park Hospital District) did not have the money to build the EPMC/Anschutz Wellness Training Center within the two years specific in the "Contract for Sale of Lot 4" to John Cullen, owner of the Stanley Hotel (i.e., Grand Heritage Hotel Group, LLC).  Since the money was not raised, according

Okay so I'll say it

Jeez we have a bunch of milquetoast pretend journalists in town. The guy who was arrested locally a few clicks back, Keaton M.A. Krell, is the same guy who sexually assaulted a bunch of underage females in Linn County, Kansas, and, brazenly, got away with it. The airtight connection is through his wife or ex-wife or whoever star pupil and non-profit wunderkind Candace Krell is. But even then, c'mon, how many folks named Keaton M.A. Krell are running around diddling little girls? Get some cojones, POR (paper of record) and POR (podcast of record). You did the work (sort of) now publish the findings. Stop hiding behind the town as an excuse to avoid going to press - the PIO and TA aren't going to give you anything because they are scared of their own shadows. For the low IQ crowd and too easily unconvinced: Note how Candace Krell used to give her home address on LinkedIn as Estes Park, Colorado Here's another big whoopsie And this And this And this
