Milliken is a tiny town about 15 miles south of where I'm sitting. This has been a pretty popular story here.

BTW, it's snowing here right now.

I was wondering how long it would take.

Their point was well made. Terrorists and bigots crawl out of the wood work when there is apparent scorn for their beliefs.

Dear Editor:

the correct spelling should be meat and not meet. Thank you, not go about your biased reporting.

“BTW, it’s snowing here right now. “

I thought we were going to get 12”- 24” from what they were saying and I looked out to see it barely covering the grass. Longmont seems to be in some kind of micro climate when it comes to snow.

Wow, I knew I recognized that town name. I was over in Lyons dealing with the aftermath of the flooding at the CEMEX plant, and took a drive up to Milliken to see the railroad damage up there. Scooted over to see the Great Western Shops in Loveland. Also a year later I was vacationing in the mountains and drove a friend up to Johnstown from her cabin near Guanella Pass on the Grant side... we had Thanksgiving dinner at her neice’s home.

Typically 50% of restaurants fail in the first six months. Half of the remainder fail in the six months after that. So while location is extremely important, so is publicity. And they are at the point where “any publicity is good publicity”.

The new N-word is “The Old White Guy.”

I got the Old White Guy Blues
From my head down to my shoes
Seems like this just aint my time

You say I took your stuff
Now you aint got enough
Not even one thin dime.

You say this Old White Guys to blame
I should live each day in shame,
Dont deserve anything i got.

But yer livin’ like a bum
And acting real dumb...
You think yer down just because Im up.

Old White guy is my name
you say White Preveledge is my game
Call me RACIST when I was just an embryo.

So that gives you every right
To hate me cause Im white
Every little place that I go.

When I see you in the store
Pants down on the floor
You act like Im the disgrace.

When I see you on the street
We dont have time to greet
Got to have that “conversation” about race

This Old White Guy’s had enough!
Go buy your own stuff.
Get up off yer lazy ass!

If you come for what I got
Yer likely to get shot
End up fertilizin’ my grass.

I got the Old White Guy Blues
Its everywhere in the news.
Every breath I take is a “micro aggression

And I know it wont make you smile
But I plan to be here for a while
I got to vote in the next election.
