Are the posted questions getting worse?

  • Thanks Jack.

  • Well don't come to Denver. It's not creepy and we don't burn cars. We do shoot people occassionally that play sports.

    I'll mention to my sister-in-law in Hartford that she might want to move.

  • I lived in Parker for a few years, so apparently, it's not my fault. Or Colorado was so nice, it was completely immune to my ability to increasing the area's creep factor.

    I guess that could go either way.

    Thanks Jack.

    No problem. Just seemed to notice a correlation. I suppose I could be way off, maybe there are other factors involved.

    He hasn't said he lived in Massachusetts and it's really creepy.

  • Mass could be may fault.

    I own a place in Vermont, so I drive through Mass a lot.

    Plus, the states are pretty small out here.

    Too small for me, I mean, to make a U-turn in Rhode Island you have to drive into Mass (sorry its name is just too hard for an old fart to spell correctly).

    I like the open space here in Colorado, even though Colorado Springs does seem to keep growing.

    OK, well, Oklahoma was a little creepy, what did you do there?

    Yeah, I grew up out west, but I've been living in New England for quite a while now. You can easily drive through five states in about 3-hours and it does get weird quick. First time I drove my wife from Tulsa to Joplin she about had a cow when I told her, after driving for close to two hours, that we were just entering Missouri. I guess she thought we'd already been through all of Arkansas and half of Texas by that point.

    I think you can blame MA on the Kennedy's.

    I blame VT on Barney Frank and Howard Dean so you are clear here also.

    We went to San Antonio for a vacation trip last year. The drive through Colorado and New Mexico was FAST compared with the drive through Texas to San Antonio. Blew the kid's minds. They kept asking if we were there yet.

    No, I blame MA on the idiots that keep electing the Kennedy's to office over and over again.

    I guess you can't argue with that. The worst part is that so many of them have moved North to NH and corrupted a perfectly good state.

    Agreed, but I'm going to back away from the political conversation now.
