SandBox Comments: Glenwood Springs Post Independent "Dollar store coming to Main Street in Silt"

(...sighs....rolls eyes.....pours something a little stronger into her morning cuppa....)

Here's another tourism marketing and economic development idea for the Town of Silt.

Capitalize on being the only town on the Western Slope of Colorado that has its own 'stalkarazzi' aka John Colson.

Picture this!

You can snap photos of him lurking out at the entrance into Silt...just sitting there with his trusted steno book and #2 pencil in that old truck of his.

Go online to a handy 'spy gear' store and grab up some 'Big Brother' cameras and hidden mics.  Then plaster them all over town. Let the town hall employees monitor the closed circuit screens and listen in to all conversations that might tell you:  "Where's John Colson??"

Feed him false tips and leads through groups of anonymous bloggers and then film his antics chasing down those leads!

Wrap all that up into a script and ship it off with a solicitation to be the next big reality show on TV.

Then add a "Hot News!!" viral social media button on that great new website of yours and launch a global campaign soliciting votes promoting your effort to get on one of the major TV networks.

win-win.

BTW, a Dollar Store is a great idea, we need one in the area.  Hope it hasn't been sabotaged by leaks from your resident stalkarazzi reporter.

excellent. most excellent idea nanny. just take it a step farther.

Get the Lou crew involved. They've got that cool video and audio technology in their units and they watch that exchange on I70 pretty close. And the gas station is a coffee and soda stop for most of them. As suspicious and paranoid as Colson is over Lou and all things garco sheriff, there's been rumors about him for years. This covert operations idea you just gave Dave and Silt has endless possibilities.

Help a cop catch Colson.

I like it.
