Earlier this month, Mile Highs and Lows called out HempCon 2011 organizers for promoting “Hot Ass” and “Best Orgasm” contests at their medical marijuana convention scheduled for this weekend at the Denver Merchandise Mart. Now, a video of a previous Hot Ass contest has surfaced, and there’s nothing medical about…
Yesterday, President Barack Obama visited Colorado — but the press passes worn by national reporters covering the appearance told a different story. As seen above, the states on the agenda are pictured in white — but the pass mistakes Colorado for Wyoming. They’re both big rectangles, so maybe we should…
The Denver District Attorney’s Office has formally charged Muriel Keer with child abuse resulting in death after the drowning of her ten-month-old son. The statement of probable cause in the case, on view below, provides even more details about the horrific incident…
Andy Kopsa’s stories about Shelly Donahue’s controversial “WAIT” training method, which encourages youth abstinence by, for instance, portraying vaginas as little vaccums able to Hoover up nearby sperm, continue to generate debate. Here’s a fresh comment from a Donahue defender…
Violence erupted after midnight on the 2200 block of North Emporia Street in Aurora. Four people who’d been sitting on a porch were shot in the incident. And while three of those injured are not in danger of death, the fourth victim is reportedly in critical condition at this writing…
Even though body artists specialize in the sort of inking and piercing that can lead to serious infections if not done properly, Denver no longer annually inspects tattoo parlors. Why not? One tattoo artist says personnel were reassigned to inspect medical marijuana dispensaries — but a city spokeswoman insists that…
After our post about Troubleshooter Tom Martino’s bankruptcy filing, prompted by alleged liabilities of $78 million (a figure he disputes), we published a sequel about potential asset-shifting in his wife Holly Whitrock-Martino’s bankruptcy, echoing similar claims by a bank in his current case. Martino branded Mike Willis, Holly’s ex-husband and…
We were shocked — shocked! — when President Barack Obama gave a speech at Lincoln High School yesterday, as scheduled, rather than taking refuge from Comet Elenin in DIA’s secret underground tunnels. But while some conspiracy theorists are conceding they were wrong, others still aren’t convinced Earth dodged an intergalactic…
On his swing through the West this week, Barack Obama spoke on Tuesday afternoon to a crowded parking lot of spectators in front of Abraham Lincoln High School on South Federal touting his plan to grow the economy and create jobs. No word on whether Obama plans to avoid Comet…
Facebook has become a town hall of sorts for the online cannabis community. It’s not the best forum, though by default it has become the main place for the average cannabis user to find information. But a new social networking site, WeedPals, is hoping to change that with a ganja-centric…
The list of names opposing the Denver Paid Sick Leave Ordinance is growing, and quickly. Yesterday, six members of the thirteen-person City Council added theirs to a list that already includes Mayor Michael Hancock and Governor John Hickenlooper. To cement their opposition to the toll the ordinance would take on…
Grief doesn’t respect demographic boundaries, and the devastating impact of a homicide in the family can be found in all walks of life. On Monday, a coalition of victim groups gathered outside the Lindsey-Flanigan Courthouse downtown to remember lost loved ones and listen to a keynote speech by Denver Mayor…
These Denver blog posts are loaded with extras. Mile High Report fan poster scooter17 on Tim Tebow appreciators being accused of not putting the team first. The Grazing Mind’s Kelly Shea: Planting seeds for organic farming’s future. Mile High Mamas’ Amber Johnson asks: Could delaying kindergarten be a detriment to…
Alexander Davison, twenty, represents a virtual case study of an indecent exposure addict — and he appears to have gotten hooked fast. He spent around two weeks showing off his junk to an estimated sixty or seventy women on a bike path near his home and then pleasuring himself afterward…
Colorado does a miserable job of monitoring the guardians and conservators who control the finances — and, in many cases, the living conditions — of incapacitated adults, minor wards and other vulnerable populations, according to a scathing report released yesterday by the Office of the State Auditor. In other words,…
Inspired by President Obama’s American Jobs Act campaign performance at Lincoln High School, Mayor Michael Hancock can now claim that new trash fees are needed to create new jobs…..
In July, a group called Concerned Fort Collins Citizens petitioned the city to prohibit medical marijuana dispensaries, and their effort was a success. Now, voters will be asked to approve a ban on November 1 — and to help fight this effort, Citizens For Safer Neighborhoods is staging a fundraiser…
Jonathan Shikes’s Shmuck of the Week post about an undercover bust at Hooters has spurred some lively back-and-forths. Here’s one exchange involving a person who thinks most police officers lie and a succinct rebuttal…
Feel like you’re getting jacked each time you use an automatic teller machine? There’s a good reason for that. A new survey from Bankrate.com spotlights the five U.S. cities with the highest ATM transaction fees. And guess who won…
Jason Bomsta, 34, has been sentenced to 54 years in jail for last year’s brutal killing of forty-year-old Duane Maasch, whose body was found stuffed in a plastic toy bin. The reported reason for the slaying? A $100 drug debt…
Today, President Barack Obama is coming to Denver to raise funds and talk about jobs — or so he claims. Right now, plenty of conspiracy theorists insist he’s here to hide from the apocalyptic impact of Comet Elenin in DIA’s long-rumored underground bunkers. Page down to check out a videos…
Yeah, yeah, everyone knows about the secret underground bunker at Denver International Airport where Barack Obama was supposed to hide out during his recent visit to Denver if Comet Elenin hit the earth — or he wanted to conduct a Defcon 1 “Cocked Pistol” maximum-readiness alert. We forget which. It’s…
