Good use of that word. Hee.

lol! Probably so. Or the entire state... it's not a very religious state overall, and of course, legal weed.

The world is always about to end for these people!

no TV's allowed in my house (for 30 yrs on the ranch in Colorado, or for the 30yrs elsewhere) Never heard of him. (till now).. must be another 'benefit' of Colorado getting into the political battleground state throws of the left'.

Watch out for angry teenage boys with guns! (a Colorado curse, and a well understood one)

Live in the Smog and People infested 'brown' Denver? Oh, my.. THAT would be worse than a life sentence! Canon City is much prettier, healthier and Many fewer stoplights.

Yup. He lives outside of Dallas. Loathes Austin so much because it leans left that he had the audacity to say the hills around DFW are just as good as The Hill Country (which if you've been to both locations is laughably absurd). Dallas is essentially an oversized Lincoln. I'd have said Omaha, but it's hillier.

Hills in Dallas = overpasses lol! I always wonder if people like him actually believe what they preach, or if it's just part of their schtick to make money

It's even less clear to me now that you're not, in fact, Glenn Beck.

to be fair, there are SOME elevation changes over on the east side of town by white rock lake. Definitely not hill country nice though.
