“Things to do in Denver when you’re dead,” 2 (a philosophical meditation / Andy Garcia tribute post)

1.  Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

2.  snowboarding (seasonal)

3.  great fly fishing

4.  watch the young and exciting Colorado Rockies from the wildly enthusiastic Rockpile

5.  The Denver mint

6.  excellent 5-star quail and buffalo dishes at The Fort

7.  see the hotel where The Shining was “filmed”

8.  $1 Wednesday wing night at the Hooters, Colorado Blvd (ask for Tawni)


9.  If you can believe the dot heads, now’s the time to start worrying about all that ethically dubious dimestore Lothario shit you tried pulling on Jaegersloshed sorority girls back during those “Christmas in June” fraternity parties in the late 80s—or else, just accept that you’ll be coming back as a heavyset chick willing to let just about any slob in Dockers and a worn Nike baseball cap touch your nipples for a warm Busch Light and a few kind words.

    The Cheyenne Mountain Zoo is in Colorado Springs. They don’t let dead people ride the Front Range Express bus down here, so you’re shit out of luck there, Mr. Zombie.

    But if you’re able to hitch a ride, be sure to check out the komodo dragon. That little bastard is a bad-ass, and ideal for freaking the hell out of little kids.

  2. Boner of Zion says:

    Denver’s gas stations have as fine a selection of cough drops and beef sticks as any in North America.

    Been there (outside the airport (which is fucked up)) for about half an hour once.

    Got cultured.

    Hm.

    Where can I find this heavyset chick?

  4. richard mcenroe says:

    Robert — Ask the former Mr. Sharon Stone

    Keep in mind, this man is a newspaper publisher, trusted to shape the opinions of dozens, maybe hundreds of American citizens…

  5. T. Marcell says:

    The Stanley Hotel is in Estes Park, I’ve stayed there.

    kinda creepy.

  6. Jeff Goldstein says:

    It’s a reincarnation thing, Carl—er, Charlie.

  7. Sticky B says:

    How fucking ironic.

    I’m a kinda heavy set guy, who is searching daily for Dockers clad, Nike hat topped chicks who will agree to touch my nipples.

    I wonder what I was in my former life.

  8. Peyton in an age of Ben says:

    I rented this movie one time cause I thought the title was way cool. The movie, as I recall, totally sucked.

  9. David Ross says:

    If you’re dead, the Overlook Hotel is the place to see and be (TW) seen.

    Come play with us.

  10. Ric Locke says:

    Duffy’s. The booths, cheap wood with straight backs – reach for it

    Regards,

    Ric

    Beats being groped by an eight-legged elephant.

  12. The Saucy Noodle used to be one of those things to do in Denver.  Ditto the Blue Bonnet.  Probably no more; things come apart.

    Although…right next to The Saucy Noodle is one of the best liquor stores I’ve ever been to.  Keep in mind that Applejack’s is probably THE best, and scale accordingly.
