Is It Cheating if You Win?

 Keep the gravy train rolling

Democrats want to expand their “fair advantage” by redistricting. Colorado Constitution? Like that pesky TABOR amendment, something to bypass.

The only clear aspect of all of this will be tons of dark money supporting it. Solidarity with the rest of the Blue states doing the same thing.

 Nikita Khrushchev famously said, “The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them”.

Are we allowing our tax dollars to fund the dark money groups that will enslave our grand children and great grand children?

Comments

Free speech is important to me and very few comments are deleted. That said, total off topic comments suggest this blog isn’t being read by the commentator, just used to spread their message. Not happening! The occasional Anonymous comment may be published if it has, in my opinion, some value.  If you want your comment to be taken seriously, why not have the guts to put your name to it?

Wyoming Winter

Every year on I-80 between Rawlins and Laramie; Elk Mountain. 88 miles of extreme hazard. Summer? 90 mph wind gusts. Given Wyoming’s budget, last winter they had just four snow plow drivers for the route. Wages for employees are pitifully low.

Pro tip. Take US 30. Going east, get off at Ft Steele. Going west, get off at Laramie. The detour is twelve miles longer on a two lane road with no significant elevation change, and fourteen to twenty minutes more driving time. There are several passing lanes and the highway is well maintained.

I do this summer and winter. Very few 18 wheelers use this route. The few you encounter seem to be very professional.

As of late 2025 data, Colorado ranks among the highest in the nation for crime, with violent crime rates placing it 8th highest and property crime rates 4th highest in the U.S.. Despite slight decreases from 2022 peaks, crime rates remain elevated, with 2024 data showing auto theft, aggravated assault, and property crimes still significantly higher than the national average

Car Story

My shortest job.

My two sons had just left to spend the summer with their mother in Minnesota when a manager I respected offered me a job in the used car side of a Chevy dealership. I had two days off from the current job and decided to spend them checking out the job.

At that time the state had no control of salespeople with licenses, etc. Wild West.

First day, around 1:30 pm, a car came on the lot and parked towards the back. I went up and greeted the driver, who reeked of alcohol.

After making a pleasant greeting and extending my hand, the driver spouted off. From memory,

“I own this dealership and I don’t talk to fucking salesmen, got that?”

“Yes sir”, I replied. “Let me help you get inside before a customer sees your condition”.

 This provoked a steam of ugly words which ended when I buried my fist just under his right side short ribs. This helped him lose his liquid lunch, putting him on the path to sobriety.

From there I went over to the used car office and told them this lot wasn’t working for me, then over to my truck and departed.

On several occasions people have suggested I need anger management classes. Makes no sense, I already know how to get angry.

As always, YMMV
