Apologies for technical problems
Written by Max in Thursday, August 26th 2010   

There’s currently some sort of glitch was has caused every comment from readers to all of my blog entries since last October to vanish into cyberspace. I still have them on my dashboard, however. Also, new comments do not follow the correct blog entry; I tried it myself. Patience, please. It’s being worked on now.

Assorted nuts in America’s homeless mecca
Written by Max in Thursday, August 26th 2010   

1) Fans of Honorable Macon Cowles; how did this guy, loved by the voters here in Boulder for his support of various fringe policies, ever manage to get away for years with a grossly undervalued property tax assessment of his home? I mean no criticism of him — I’ve enjoyed some interesting e-mail exchanges with Councilman Cowles [...]

A success story from Boulder Shelter
Written by Max in Thursday, August 12th 2010   

I first met “Lenny”, which isn’t his real name, early in 2009. He was very motivated to improve his situation, was clean and sober, and he got into the transitional living program at Boulder Shelter for the Homeless soon thereafter. He had always expressed reservations to me about others in that program, who were simply [...]

Noodles Romanoff, Guest Blogger (maybe), and more
Written by Max in Wednesday, August 11th 2010   

1) I’m so relieved that the inane Andrew Romanoff was defeated in yesterday’s Democratic primary race for U.S. Senate. Boulder County Democrats supported him, of course, as the fringe Dems they truly are, intent on shooting themselves in the foot and helping the GOP. Apparently, the endorsement by President Obama of Sen. Bennet trumps that by Slick Willie of Noodles. [...]

Harmony restored, pesky foxes, and more
Written by Max in Thursday, August 5th 2010   

1) The curse of Warthog Woman has been lifted, with her departure from Boulder, CO! I understand that she has gone to another state and will probably not return here . . . It’s like we’ve each been suffering from a painful boil on the backside, and had to wait patiently for it to come [...]

WW’s meltdown, bushwhackers, and Street Justice
Written by Max in Monday, July 26th 2010   

1) Last Saturday night at a no-longer-secret homeless campsite in north Boulder, Warthog Woman once again wanted to continue jabbering as everyone else was ready to settle down and sleep. WW, for whatever passes for reason in her disturbed mind, decided to criticize our Armed Forces. Eventually, a homeless veteran told her: “Lady, we’re all trying [...]

Bugtussle seeks redemption, warthog sighting, and more
Written by Max in Tuesday, July 20th 2010   

1) Bugtussle has moved on from Boulder, with the intent to enter rehab in another state. I wish him well. BTW, it’s a good idea for anyone battling substance abuse to get out of Boulder, CO; this community tends to undermine the efforts of any homeless alcoholic or drug addict to get clean and sober [...]

‘Spokes Folks’
Written by Max in Tuesday, July 13th 2010   

See this story from Sarah Palin’s hometown newspaper – http://www.frontiersman.com/articles/2010/07/13/local_news/doc4c3c14c1104d7697964379.txt I’ll bet they even obey all traffic laws . . .

A happy camper
Written by Max in Tuesday, July 13th 2010   

It’s long overdue for me to salute a legendary Boulder entertainer, who happens to be homeless. He can often be found at the corner of N. Broadway and U.S. 36, singing and playing the guitar and greeting passersby with kind words of concern. I’m proud that he considers me a friend. This gentleman has faced [...]
