Question: You like fairy tales?
Once upon a time, in the middle of the ocean, there was the Island of Trid.
It seems that most of the Island of Trid was covered by a large mountain. On this mountain lived a Giant. The Giant did not allow Trids on his mountain. If a Trid dared to climb onto the mountain, the Giant would kick him into the ocean. Trids are notoriously bad swimmers, and frequently drowned when kicked into the ocean.
The Trids were a very sexual people, and the population had grown quite large. Every square inch of the island, except the mountain, was crowded with Trids.
The Trids spent their days crowded together, dreaming of the open space available on the ever visible mountain.
Every few days, a Trid would decide he couldn’t stand the crowds any more. He would start to climb the mountain, and the Giant would kick the Trid into the ocean.
The Trids were a very depressed people.
One day a traveling Rabbi visited the Island of Trid.
Despite their overcrowded conditions, the Trids were extremely generous to this man of God.
The Rabbi decided to return the favor, and to go plead the Trid’s case to the Giant. “Surely the Giant can be convinced to share some of the mountain with you,” the Rabbi explained.
The Trids were horrified. “Please don’t go, Rabbi”, the Trids implored. “The Giant will kick you into the ocean, and you will surely drown.”
The Rabbi was stubborn, and insisted that he talk to the Giant. The Trids sent out every boat they had. They formed a ring around the island, so that they would be able to rescue the Rabbi.
The Rabbi started walking towards the mountain. No sign of the Giant.
He walked through the foothills, and there was no sign of the Giant.
He started up the slopes of the mountain, further than any Trid had ever been. Still no sign of the Giant.
Finally he reached the summit of the mountain. There the Giant was waiting for him. The Rabbi asked “Tell me Giant, why have you allowed me to climb to the top of the mountain, without kicking me off the moment I started climbing?”
And the Giant replied, “Silly Rabbi, kicks are for Trids!”
Ah yes, I can see the crowd forming now, pitchforks and torches, such love for Jake!!!

Lucinda Jones workin’ at the IHOP:
Ten years worth of bacon, eggs an’ tears
She’s waited on every creed an’ color,
While waitin’ on this day to get here
Graveyard shifts, two big tips,
Makin’ every quarter count,
Was worth it all to see her son,
In that cap an’ gown
There are times in life when you gotta crawl,
Lose your grip, trip an’ fall
When you can’t lean on no-one else:
That’s when you find yourself
I’ve been around an’ I’ve noticed that,
Walkin’s easier when the road is flat
Them danged ol’ heels’ll get you every time
Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains,
So we could learn how to climb
Bobby, Bobby Dunn came back from the war,
Lost his leg but they couldn’t take his will
Hell bent to run in that local marathon,
He trained through the endless pain an’ pills
It hurt so bad that sometimes,
He just had to cry,
He didn’t stop until he crossed,
That finish line
There are times in life when you gotta crawl,
Lose your grip, trip an’ fall
When you can’t lean on no-one else:
That’s when you find yourself
I’ve been around an’ I’ve noticed that,
Walkin’s easier when the road is flat
Them danged ol’ heels’ll get you every time
Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains,
So we could learn how to climb
This world ain’t fair,
It can knock you on your butt
You can just lie there,
Or you can get back up
You gotta get back up
There are times in life when you gotta crawl,
Lose your grip, trip an’ fall
When you can’t lean on no-one else:
That’s when you find yourself
I’ve been around an’ I’ve noticed that,
Walkin’s easier when the road is flat
Them danged ol’ heels’ll get you every time
Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains,
(The good Lord gave us mountains)
So we could learn how to climb
Yeah, oh
Question: What’s the hiking like in colorado in mid february?
I’m planning a trip to Colorado in mid February and I’m most interested in hiking. But I’m not sure if the weather will permit. If someone could give me an idea on average temps and weather conditions that’d be great.
Answer:
Answer by Sour Apple
I went to Colorado Springs this past February (mid), and we went up to mountains, not for hiking, but to see a little hippy town. The weather was wonderful. The skies were clear the whole time, it was a bit cold, but nothing that a jacket and a hat couldn’t fix.
