And the lead keeps growing

The final unofficial results from Larimer County increased the separation between the three Estes Park School District candidates in the lead and the "team" pulling up the rear.  

Boulder County is REALLY going to have to start getting busy counting ballots now.  Since somewhere north of 124 Allenspark residents bothered to cast votes for Estes Park School District to begin with, they are going to have to unearth 25 additional ballots (20% of those who voted in the regular election) from SOMEWHERE.  And all of these ballots will have to mark Danielle Wolf, with NONE of them voting for John Davis.  Sound suspicious?  Of course it does.  Sound possible?  Well, does the Trail-Gazette have a box of uncounted Boulder County ballots sitting forlornly in their unoccupied building? 

If so, they should move this box across the border to the dumpster at Charles Eagle Plumes, because Boulder County is STILL counting.   Larimer County is DONE counting.  (Note to Trail-Gazette:  Make sure you put a big sign on the dumpster with an arrow pointing to the uncounted ballots.)

(Disclaimer:  Boulder County is still counting according to the Trail-Gazette.  Not according to Boulder County election officials.  Your actual mileage regarding accepting the Trail-Gazette's unsubstantiated claim, or the fact that Boulder County has any ballots left to count, may vary.)

Larimer County, at least, has no more ballots to give.  [Singing:  Don't cry for me Boulder County.  The truth is I never had leftover ballots hidden in dark corners - You kept your distance, I kept my promise, now put me on the board forever, signed Margaret Muzzleloader]

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
