• Udi's Granola puts Stephen Colbert on notice

  Mr. Stephen Colbert, you are officially on notice. Yes, I know that it's really Colbert's thing to put people (or items like caramel apples) "on notice," but the tables have been turned, thanks to the Granola Tycoon (aka Eric Clayman), who makes granola for Udi's Handcrafted Foods. Here's the skinny on the granola story: Since 2007, Udi's has been placing an ad in HEEB magazine, a contemporary Jewgazine in Brookly, that shows photoshopped Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad enjoying some of Ud

• Royal Crest is now delivering Udi's granola

  On a day such as this, with some sort of sleet falling from the sky like God is throwing mini water balloons, walking outside is not in my best interest. As much as I love Udi's line of granolas, trenching through slush to get some cereal just doesn't seem worth it. But if you're lucky enough to be a customer of Royal Crest Dairy, which has been delivering a variety of mostly dairy products throughout the Denver area since 1927, you can now get Udi's granola delivered to your door.

• Sorry, Jared Polis: You're fired (from your CNN series)

  Jared Polis as he appears on an episode of CNN's "Freshman Year." The last time we blogged about Freshman Year, CNN's You Tube-y reality show about two totally different congressmen picked to serve in the House, we had these predictions for forthcoming episodes: Conservative Utah father-of-three Jason Chaffetz gets drunk in a hot tub; liberal and openly gay Jared Polis of Boulder gets kicked out of a nightclub; and both of them get into a nasty, spit-in-your-face fight with Nancy Pelosi over wh

• Oh yeah: Jared Polis also hosted a healthcare town hall....

  Before Congressman Jared Polis' constituents got a chance to see him do a beer bong with Stephen Colbert on The Colbert Report last night, they had the opportunity to watch him do something else unusual -- host a healthcare town hall that didn't deteriorate into scarlet-faced, neck-tendon-displaying sound and fury. As captured in this first-rate Boulder Daily Camera video by Jonathan Castner, the throng that showed up to share their views about reform legislation with JP typically stayed on poi

• Commenters mostly laugh off Jared Polis' beer-bonging

  Representative Jared Polis getting his drink on with an assist from Stephen Colbert.​Representative Jared Polis beat Doug Lamborn and Betsy Markey to the healthcare-town-hall punch, staging a session on Monday. Not that the event got much attention. After all, that evening, Polis starred in the first "Even Better-er Know a District" segment on Comedy Central's The Colbert Report, during which he and host Stephen Colbert took turns sucking Coors Light from a beer bong. Yes, it was hilariou

  A masked Stephen Colbert.​One more quick hit about Jared Polis' beer-bonging appearance on The Colbert Report.

In other news, totally fired up for Project Runway premiere this week!" You and me both, brother.

• Attendees actually let Jared Polis talk during latest health care town hall

  When he's not doing beer bongs with Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert, Rep. Jared Polis has been staging health care town halls during the August recess -- more of them than colleagues such as Betsy Markey, Ed Perlmutter, Mike Coffman and Doug Lamborn. And while it's far too early to say that such sessions are generally becoming less contentious, Polis's latest, staged at the Mary Carpenter Recreation Center in Thornton over the weekend, didn't devolve into screaming sessions about death panels

  The logo of Wrigley's Chicago Bar & Grille.​There's always some authority figure just waiting to crush a brilliant plan.... The folks at Wrigley's Chicago Bar & Grille, at 18200 W. Colfax Avenue in Golden, wanted to mark Jay Cutler's return to Denver for a preseason game this weekend against the Broncos with his new team, the Chicago Bears, by hosting a Cutler jersey-burning party this Saturday -- which is, to paraphrase Stephen Colbert, either a great idea or the greatest idea. But the G

  Jared Polis and a polar pal.​Jared Polis: He's everywhere these days. When he's not sucking down a cold one with Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert, beer-bong style, the Boulder Democrat is pointing the camera at himself as part of Freshman Year, a CNN series in which he and Utah Republican Congressman Jason Chaffetz chronicle their first terms in the U.S. House. Polis' earlier episodes received failing grades from Melanie Asmar, but his latest offering (accessible by clicking here) is a mod

• Jared Polis says there's no defense for the Defense of Marriage Act

  Yesterday, Representative Jared Polis joined colleagues Jerrold Nadler and Tammy Baldwin, Dems from New York and Wisconsin, respectively, at a press conference boosting the Respect for Marriage Act. During his microphone time, viewable above, Plis referred derisively to the "thirteen-year-old, so-called Defense of Marriage Act," which would be wiped off the legislative map by the new bill; in his view, DOMA "singles out legally married same sex couples for discriminatory treatment under federal
