Colorado

Colorado, also known as New Mexico's Mongolia, is called the "Centennial State" because a lot of people there who aren't either skiing or living in Boulder are really old.

Colorado's capitol is South Park, Colorado's number one killer is the Orange Parkah. It seems as if those who wear an Orange Parkah attract death like metal to a magnet.

Despite protests from retired military officers in Colorado Springs who wanted it to become a Right To Work state, Colorado was admitted to the Union in 1876.

Fundamentalist Mecca
Thanks to preachers like Ted Haggard and James Dobson whose Focus on Family is based there, Colorado Springs is sometimes called the Fundamentalist Mecca.

They help bring faithiness and the Word of God to the whole country from this outpost that had been populated mostly by retired military officers, and active soldiers and airmen.

Colorado was a lot like other Mountain states before the arrival of the mega churches in Springs. Folks in the region tend to be somewhat lacking in churchiness. But Dobson, Haggard, and their flocks started to change that from their bases in Springs.

Factoids

 * Colorado is one of the states owned by Ted Turner. It is part of the nearly impenetrable "Turner Curtain" that splits the country into two parts.
 * The Peoples Republic of Boulder is "16 square miles surrounded by reality".
 * The glittering gold state capitol dome in Denver will soon be replaced by another Qwest logo.
 * Stargate Command is not really in Cheyenne Mountain. It's actually located next door to Fox Mulder's old apartment in Vancouver, BC (that's Canada).
 * It is legal to smoke Maryjane in Denver, but however was rejected by the rest of the state of Colorado.
 * The Broncos are located here, and it is here that their tradition of crapping on opponents fields started.
 * Most Greenies (as they are known in other states due to their horrendous green plates) think they are the better of the two rectangle states. However, they can be found roaming the mountains of Wyoming because Colorado has be overrun by Texans, Mexicans, Texicans, and other ethnicities that end in -ans.
