  • Denver no longer has to wonder: What Would Molly Brown Tweet?

    Historical Tweets, a website that imagines what historical figures -- from George Washington to Urkel -- would have tweeted on Twitter, recently waded into familiar territory with the above offering between El Capitano and Denver's Molly Brown. So one burning question has been answered. But here's another: What Would DIA's Blue Mustang Tweet? Those seeking clues can check out Joel Warner's blog "DIA Promo Photo Kicks Ass of All Other Airport Promo Photos" and Jared Jacang Maher's blog "Don't

  • Sometimes finding fans requires crossing over

    Last night, I threw back some drinks and bounced some ideas around with Mane Rok. In addition to being the MC for Denver's ManeLine, Mane Rok is also one of the masterminds (and de facto reluctant leader) of L.I.F.E. Crew, a community of like-minded Denver hip-hop heads that includes Ichiban, the Pirate Signal, 3 the Hardway and more. He has been an active booster of the scene since his days at George Washington High, and has more than a few ideas about what's good -- and bad -- about hip-h

    Because of his outsized persona, Yonnas Abraham is the face that most people generally associate with the Pirate Signal. If you look over dude's shoulder, though, there's another cat that cuts an equally impressive figure in his own right on the ones and twos. That distinguished chap's name? Alejandro Martinez, or DJ A-What, as he's better known in hip-hop circles. We finally had the chance to chop it up with the turntable technician in an effort to find out what, ahem, makes him tick.

  • Freaky Friday: "Washington" - Cox Combes

    ​Another Friday, another shot of fucking weird. This one is an old favorite of mine that I stumbled upon while working in the YouTube mines. It's a surreal, absurd look at our nation's greatest founder, George Washington. And while it omits some of the tried and true myths about him -- no cherry-tree chopping here -- it does add a whole slew of new ones, like the little known tidbit that he had four testicles. It's probably not safe for work, depending on how your work feels about rapping

  • Wake-Up Call: A very civil insurrection

    ​At a round of town-hall meetings on health care that kick off today, first-term congresswoman Betsy Markey will hand out copies (abridged) of a George Washington favorite, "Rules of Civility & Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation," originally a 110-item list of Jesuit guidelines for civil behavior. Great idea, but it raises two questions: Did she send a copy to Dick Wadhams, chair of the Colorado Republican Party, who's labeled Markey's small-form meetings a "sham"? And if so, wha

  • At her town hall, Betsy Markey presents a moving target

    Representative Betsy Markey.​Like fellow representative Doug Lamborn, whose healthcare town hall was frenzy-free (because pretty much everyone agreed that ObamaCare is awful), Betsy Markey, who represents Colorado's 4th District, managed to keep her own get-together about reform from deteriorating into a remake of Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. However, she had to work a little harder than Lamborn, who faced a crowd that would have joined voices in a rendition of "Kumbaya" if the song had bee
