Until an enterprising visionary starts up the 5,000-channel satellite network of the world's best live security-cam feeds, we'll have to make due with random images captured by Google maps street-view cameras. Recent address searches have revealed some Coloradans behaving badly...

The extra-large windows of the Rocky Mountain Bar & Grill provide ample sight lines for concerned, yet momentarily thirsty moms and dads.

The light in the sky suggests that the Google maps street-view camera captured the picture above at half-past happy hour on a late-summer day.
