As we've reported, rent prices in metro Denver are finally starting to moderate, but they're still up by a considerable amount over this time last year. The trend continues in the latest Denver rent report for September, which shows that prices are higher than they were twelve months earlier in all nine area communities analyzed. But the numbers are leveling off on a month-to-month basis, where only one of the nine experienced a rent increase of more than 1 percent since August, and costs actually fell in another metro town.

Which makes it only appropriate that he recently became Internet-famous for apparently blowing a fart on the air.
