    Oh no!

    The DNC has gone to great lengths to demand their convention be as “green” as possible. Locally grown organic foods from the caterers. Wind power from Excel. The whole nine yards to show us how great alternatives are for us and teach us how to conserve.

    But try as they might, that hick town in Colorado just can’t supply them enough of what they really need.

    DENVER - Thousands of delegates, politicians, supporters and protesters are expected to descend upon Denver for the Democratic National Convention in two weeks. One thing they may not find is a ride around town due to a lack of limousines.

    "Everyone wants a limo, but you can only supply so many," said Gene Cookenboo, president of the Limousine Association of Colorado and owner of Presidential Limousine, the largest limo service in Denver.

    According to records, 271 limo companies are registered at DIA. However, Cookenboo says the majority of those companies only have one to three cars. It comes at a time when limo companies are expected to make 125 runs a day during the DNC compared to 80 during a normal week.

    "We're simply running out of cars," said Cookenboo.

    I'm confused. What's three McCain supporters "mooning" got to do with this?

    Why does HWN refer to Denver as a "hick town" in Colorado? - having been there several times I find it a very enjoyable town to visit - the brunch at Brown's Hotel is out of this world! Best ever.

    Nah, definitely Republican supporters, this time they're outside rather than in an airport washroom - and there's three of them!

    As the old fella said, "young people today are lacking direction, we've got to get to the bottom of this".
    Sure John, sure, but is this what you had in mind? Surely not! :)
