It is quite peculiar that a place like the Roaring Fork Valley —
which serves as a playground for some of the most extreme sports and
world-class athletes, from World Cup ski racing to X Games, intrepid
mountain biking terrain to über-technical rock climbing, envied Gold
Medal-water fishing and even unparalleled hiking trails — would lack a
film festival specifically designed to showcase such talent.
At least that’s the way it seemed to Carbondale’s 5Point Film Festival Founder Julie Kennedy.

Like some beguiling, Bronx-bred and wind-driven Ponce de Leon, he
set sail into uncharted territory. The land he stumbled upon was dingy
and rank with the sweat of the restless. It was at once beautiful and
decadent. It was bursting at its ripe underbelly with energy and soul.
It was the Garden of Eden and the Book of Revelations. It was an
unnamed oasis soon to be christened Hip-Hop.
This virgin continent needed a worthy leader. Indeed, it needed a King,
a Pharaoh, a President. It needed a Grandmaster. This land called

spring given the continuous cold temperatures and intermittent blizzard

If you are anything like me, I’m always afraid that a few months after
giving away that vintage Anne Klein suit, Ralph Lauren skirt or
whatever, I’m going to bolt up in the middle of the night in a hot
sweat (no, not menopause), and whimper, “Say it isn’t so! Don’t tell me
I really gave away that classic camel hair coat dress now that it is in

by Dava Parr, Time Out Chef-at-Large Thursday, May 8, 2008 Spring weather! What a treat, huh? Snow, rain, sun, wind, hmmmm. I
guess we had better hold off on planting up that vegetable bed for
another week or so. I am still contemplating a quick trip to perma-warm
Mexico, so it is just as well I can’t don those kneepads and rubber
boots just yet.
It is a little difficult planning spring menus in the Rocky Mountains.
The safest bet right now, vegetable-wise, is asparagus. Those hearty
little rhizomes will grow out of any condition when spring tells them
to rise. We have been eating them fresh from the picking for a couple
of weeks now and we should see them well into June with luck. Full Story »

The Wachowski brothers have tumbled into a matrix of their own with
“Speed Racer,” one which has rendered them completely out of touch with
the outside world. Full Story »
