    Default my how things have changed

    so i was looking around colorado and thinking where did all this crap come from .when i was a kid there was no asmusement park downtown , no light rail , coors pavilion was called fiddlers green , the forney museum was where rei is , places like the tech center and broomfield were open prairie , mork form ork still lived in boulder , we had no baseball team , the broncos always went to the superbowl but never won , the peoples fair was at east high school and was not gay , the dreaded brown cloud was a topic on the news all the time and you could go in the hills without running into trash every 5 feet.
    maybe some of you remember the way things were before colorado was over run by texans , new yorkers and those silly cali people .

    Yes they have, some things are better (tech firms coming here which is good for me) and some things are worse (more litterers, a-holz, and liberals).

    When i was a boy i learned to ride my dirt bike where Highlands Ranch is. We lived in Littleton and when we went south of County Line Rd. there was nothing but open range all the way to Castle Rock......which was waaayy out there in the sticks. It's really quite depressing sometimes.

    Also seems like when i go hunting i do more picking up trash than i do anything else, so yeah i'm with ya.
