Good Morning from Surprising Syracuse!

Well, an interesting weekend, to say the least. I’ll have more details and a lot of photos a little later. Currently in Syracuse, getting ready for the highlight of the trip: going to the Baseball Hall of Fame. Can’t wait. Haven’t been since I was 10 years old. Anyways, I’m gonna post pics of last weeks winners and the questions under them will be about people who went to Syracuse or who lived there. One guess per person.

The Donspiracist Presents: Is Denver’s Airport Evil?

The Donspiracist was not happy with the Phils-Rockies series last week, so he decided to take his revenge the only way he knew how: by exposing the TRUTH about Denver’s evil airport, an airport that looks like a swastika from above, that houses prisoners underground, and that has horrifying paintings in it’s main entrance!
I, the Donspiracist, took a week off to celebrate the Phillies’ thrilling theft of the NL East title from the hated Mets, only to have his jubilation crushed by those boys who play in Homer Central, aka Coors Field. I hope they get snakebitten.

How fitting is it then that my topic for this week is the Denver Airport? If you’ve never been or wonder why the hell I’m writing about an airport, then you need to start by taking a look at some pictures, which are taken of the mural in the Great Hall of the Denver Airport. As you look at them, you notice that they are not what you would expect for an airport serving the general public, including families and children. The work is dark, violent and disturbing. The artist who was commissioned to paint these murals claims he was simply working in a medium he has explored for years. That may be so, but what the hell? Some of the more offensive murals have since been painted over. Still, conspiracists suggest the murals portray the intentions of the New World Order, a future filled with fascist world government, genocide and occultism. (Check this out, it’s a pretty wild video about the airport -ed.)

Dinosaur Sex

Everybody has been asking me lately about dinosaur sex. And by “everybody” I mean nobody. So I’ll share with you what I know. First, an answer from the straight dope. But wait, it gets better. I stumbled onto a forum of a site called askabiologist.com, where I suspect most of the questions are like, “Why do turtles have shells?” But on this forum, things got a little wild, and the next thing you know, biologists are debating each other about dinosaur sex. Why are there no TV shows where scientists debate each other about dinosar sex? Who wouldn’t watch that?

Johnny Learns A Valuable Lesson

This is what happens when you bet on Philadelphia sports teams. The thrift store didn’t have any bathing suits, so I had to go with lingerie in Colorado Rockie purple. I had a few people drive by and tell me to do unholy things to myself, and received a number of middle fingers, but for the most part people just assumed that I had lost a bet. (In case you can’t read it, the sign says “Los Rockies son muy bueno!” To see the larger version, click on the photo). For the Pat’s photo (taken with a different hat) click below.

-Tried out with Cafe Lift on Sunday with Trivia Art (and a couple of beautiful women who only like us as friends). It was a terrific brunch (Get the french toast!) and Art gave ’em some love in his Bite column in the Metro.

Michael Klein has a quiz in which he asks if you know what the spots containing popular restaurants used to be. Here’s the answers.
