Great article in the newest Outside magazine about Boulder, CO (or The Peoples Republic of Boulder, as the less liberal folks here in Colorado Springs like to say).
The author's description of Boulderites: "If Lance Armstrong and Amy Goodman had a love child, the prodigy would drive his Audi A4 to Boulder, buy a Maverick to decorate the roof rack, and then not ride the $5000 bike because he didn't want to encroach upon the mountain lion habitat."
His account of the Boulder economy: "The Dunkin' Donuts went out of business, but the oxygen bar next door to the gay-and-lesbian bookstore seems to be doing well."
Sounds like a place Smut Mutt would enjoy!

It's scary, back when I lived in the Springs, I'd go to Boulder for enjoyment every now and then, when I didn't want to deal with Denver...sad.
Boulder = chimp-city, CO's version of Berkley.
Boulder, as a city, is a wanker.
Yeah, the Dunkin' Donuts may have closed, but one of the first really great bicycle shops in America was closed to make way for yet another coffee shop.
All the kids like to wear hemp and Birkenstocks but they all drive brand new Range Rovers.
So Boulder is a lot like Austin?
