  • You do realize you're in the Mile High City, don't you?

    Short one from tonight.

    SC: Do you have any rooms at sea level?
    Me: No, sorry. That won't be possible in Denver.
    To right the countless wrongs of our days... We shine this light of true redemption, that this place may become as paradise...Oh, what a wonderful world such would be...

          This isn't Waterworld or some other post-apocalyptic movie!

Not a bad prospect. I am not afraid. In the meantime, let me close my eyes and sense the beauty around me. And take that breath under the dark sky full of stars. Breathe in. Breathe out. That's all."

            Part of me wonders if this person thought that Denver is just a suburb of LA because it's "out in the west" and everything must be close because of that.

              Maybe... maybe they meant ground level?? What happened when you said no? Almost nothing is at sea level, unless you're booking a beachfront hotel.

                All that comes to mind is this:

                I expected the Rocky Mountains to be a little rockier than this. “I was thinking the same thing. That John Denver's full of shit, man.”

                But that's kind of the opposite of this situation

                    Sarcasm dear, sarcasm. I’m well aware that dealing with civilians in any capacity will skin your faith in humanity alive, then pickle anything that remains so as to watch it shrivel up into an immortal husk thus reminding you of how dead inside you now are.

                      So, if you're visiting Denver with your girlfriend (or wife), and stay at a hotel there... Can you become a member of the 'Mile High Club?' Aha! A technicality!

                        Yes, you do. There is even a different certificate you can get for "land-based achievements"...

                        (Or there was in the late-80s or early-90s, when an article in Playboy mentioned this. Uhh, yeah--I was just reading the articles... )
                        “There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
                        One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
                        The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers

                          Perhaps sea level is possible once you enter the tunnels to the secret chambers that lie below the airport... after all that's where the Illuminati have their hidden crypts isn't it?
