I live in Colorado Springs, and this afternoon, literally within 45 minutes time, 65mph gusts made the fire do a 90 degree turn and accelerate towards family homes that, as of lunchtime today, were not considered in immediate danger.

Replying to [deleted] · I'm not a beer snob but I don't really enjoy those beers. I would probably just take a couple of cases. I don't think I could deal with the prospect of having to drink that much …

I don't understand the reverse-insults being thrown about. "Ohh, if you don't like that beer, you're a beer snob! That's right. And if a McDonalds truck crashes in your yard, you have to eat all the burgers and fries to

The greatest picture taken this year. HANDS DOWN. (monkey warrior)

[Actually, this is one of the same monkey in a rodeo.](http://www.modernpooch.com/archives/whiplash1.jpg) It has a certain badass element that the warrior one is lacking. Just look at his stoic face! He knows how to rope
