Here's A Quarter, Call Someone Who Cares

Diane Carman's Thursday column in the DP is its usual waste of space. She cleverly tries to use the Colorado commemorative quarter design to air her grievances about living in Colorado: traffic jams, homelessness, miller moths, burritos, local scandals, and parking boots.

Apparently, Carman has never left Colorado (which might explain her narrow view of the world). These issues are global. Ever been to LA, NYC, Chicago, Houston, or any other major population center?

I have a solution for Carman that I think will be acceptable for all parties:

LEAVE!

By moving out of Colorado, there will be one less car on the road, more parking spaces, thereby eliminating the need for parking boots, and the miller moths will have more habitat to inhabit.

Better yet, take all of your liberal leaning journalist friends with you. That will free up even more traffic lanes, parking spots, and moth habitats. It will also create job vacancies that some of our homeless can fill, and maybe, just maybe, they will produce fair and factual headlines, rather than the sensationalistic ones Carman and her cronies manufacture on a daily basis.

Yep, acceptable to all parties, indeed! I can eat my burritos and expand in peace.
