Trump's Gaffe Put To Good Use

On FB by one of my more conservative cousins. Missing Aspen, Pagosa Springs, Durango, Steamboat Springs, and Vail but the concept has merit!

Hmmm...most of the I-70 corridor would be walled-off.

I kind of like it!

Must. Build. More. Walls.

Toll road based on class?

LSP
Yep!

Nah, too late. Colorado is toast, and is destined to burn up like California. Too many damned liberals calling the shots now, and the fate that has fallen on The Golden State is heading for Colorado: homelessness, sky high taxes and the exodus of businesses and high income folk, and general chaos.

Nope, that wall plan has come way too late. And you can blame John Denver for all of this, or at least partly: his crooning over how idyllic CO was enticed way too many liberal Californians into coming, and they brought their awful politics with them.

Oh, God no....don't move to Colorado!

Six months out of the year it's below zero, we have 75MPH winds and 30 feet of snow per year, and in the springtime, when it finally comes, we have so much pollen and dust from the agriculture your allergies will kill you.

There's nothing to do here unless you enjoy snowshoeing or strapping boards to your feet and sliding around, the nearest Macy's is 70 miles away, and there's no culture unless you like Country Music and going to barn dances, rodeos, and farm shows.

And the food is horrible! Nobody eats anything but meat and potatoes, they don't know how to properly make a double frappuccino mocha latte with sprinkles, and the locals are so polite they'll drive you insane!

(How'd I do, WSF?)

LOL, if only...

You know the demographic
targeted better than I but it seems spot on.

My, aren't you a ray of sunshine? We will survive, our wall is TABOR.

Fool: yeah, maybe you're right; I sounded like a wet blanket, a stick in the mud. Debbie Downer.

Never say never, maybe Colorado can pull out a miracle. But just remember - don't buy anymore John Denver albums, he did you guys wrong.

John Deutschendorf, military brat, 2nd vocalist in a 3.2 beer tavern band, did well for himself. He made a few bucks for a song he wrote, "Leaving On A Jet Plane" and bought himself a three tone Ford Thunderbird. Parked in the bar lot and a brawl broke out. He came rushing out to protect his car and got his ass kicked. Give the little shit credit, he wasn't a wimp. Why do I know? Who do you think started the brawl? The "honor" of a gaggle of St. Luke Hospital Student Nurses was the issue at hand. One I was dating.

3.2 beer. 18-21 to drink. Days long ago.

Fredd said...

More importantly: did the three tone Thunderbird get scratched during this kerfuffle?

Well Seasoned Fool said...

Fredd
I don't know. I do that he along WSF got some lumps. Good that WSF had several student nurses on scene to sooth him. As to J.D. and his ride we promptly left the scene at the request of Denver P.D.

Your state will be Californicated further by people coming there in search of electricity. They will bering the secret recipes for fancy $12/cup coffee with them.

Laughs on them. The environwhackos have over taken Xcel Energy and are closing the coal fired plants at a rapid pace. The (P)regressive dominated towns are now bragging about being 100% renewable energy supplied (while still hooked to the overall grid).

Last I heard, electrons aren't selective as to what molests them.

Bad sign when we have more coffee stands than bars.
