"They say it's raining in Chicago, but it's cold and clear in Denver."

Denver is awesome. To any of our friends who live in the "Denver metro" area, and not in Denver proper, you are missing out. Denver's city webpage (and their coinciding 3-1-1 info-line) is rife with helpful and interesting information. Garbage-pickup times, building permit info, pet shelter hours, museum events and art exhibits, and anything else you could think of pertaining to city life.

Almost exactly 24 hours ago I filled out a request to have a pot-hole at the end of our driveway filled in. I honestly didn't expect anything to happen. Then, out of the blue this morning, two swarthy and genial guys show up with a truck full of asphalt and "do work" on our driveway.

Thanks Denver!

Bren just stated, "Alan is my funniest friend." Revel in the warm rays of appreciation, Sir. I'll reiterate his praise if you can identify this film reference: "It's a Cosby sweater. A COSBY SWEATER!" If you cannot, you are hereby obligated to name your firstborn son Tahoe. Or Meynard, your choice.
