Of course, it's entirely possible Debbie Holmes is both

Debbie is to the far, far, right.  Get it?  Like hate group right.  Like fascist right.

It's clear, for an Estes Park Trail-Gazette self-penned editorial that uses "ravished" (meaning "raped") where "ravaged" (meaning "destroyed") is more appropriate, thus omitting the suggested sexual connotations (which are nonexistent, unless you are so jaded as to think the infecting virus is somehow engaged in oral sex) attached to an RNA virus infecting a human being, that no one at HQ is minding the store when it comes to fact-checking or proofreading submitted columns.  Examples #1 through #12 are Debbie "Does" Holmes, the recently mentioned and oft-challenged (?mentally challenged?) misunderstander of what is really important in life (meaning not dying, and that is really important for those who want to continue living), who ended her column with a profound (?profoundly dumb?) question last week (at least she thought it was profound, because she repeated it), asking (almost threatening, as in threatening you with being labeled as stupid if you answered in the affirmative) "Are you going to get the vaccination?"  

Well, no, Debbie, nobody is going to "get the vaccination"[sic], since this is impossible.  People are going to chose whether or not to "get the vaccine" or "get vaccinated", but they are not going to chose whether or not to "get the vaccination" any more than they could choose whether or not to "get starvation" or "get the hospitalization".  

Debbie, Debbie, Debbie.  Little Debbie.  The world is more than your sugar-laden, chemically modified snack cake, to chew on and regurgitate.  There are real people out here, real readers with real educations and real life experiences.  Folks privileged enough to be allowed in rooms where life came to an end, and the excuses and prevarication and arguing just to argue ceased being of any import.  When will you stop putting your ignorance and racism and unthinking bigotry on full display?  When will you, in your own words, stop the blatant and childish acting out and displayification?

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
