20 years at Colorado Public Radio and all I got was a lousy mug. You can have one, too!

Got acquainted this week with Change Please, a coffee shop that fights homelessness through its job training program. It began in the UK and says it’s rapidly expanding in the US. This location is on the north side of CU Anschutz.

A colleague at Westword informs me it’s this: www.westword.com/food-drink/d...

Magic Noodle House Bringing Hand-Pulled Noodles to Uptown This Fall

"Denver is growing fast, and we felt like the style of hand-pulled noodles would spread quickly here."

Hyperlocal news gathered on my walk home:

* A noodle joint is moving into the old Qdoba on 17th, according to a worker.

* Ma’s is in a soft opening phase. Meals are discounted as they train staff. This is in the John Hand Building. (Very much worth looking up Hand’s contributions and sad demise.)

The brutalist building at Colfax & Grant in Denver got some racy makeup. Brutalism, by the way, is not a reference to being brutal, but to the French for concrete, béton brut.

The true transgression here is that I didn’t spell it enunciate

To the man in the GMC Compensator who shouted as I flew by in a cape on a bike, that’s MR. F@%%0+ to you. The fact that you didn’t fully annunciate through your open window means you lack the courage of your homophobic convictions. And save your voice, dear, there are many of us in Capitol Hill.

“Each of the dated but serviceable rooms is named for a star. My room – 106 – is the Robert De Niro.

The daytime view of the drive-in theater is somehow disconcerting — like seeing a Disney mascot without its head on.”

We spent the night at a Southern Colorado motel attached to a drive-in theater

Happy Coming Out Day.

I fear it may get harder to come out in this country, but I’m here to remind you: We’re here and you’re loved.
