THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION
with JOHN COLSON
We don’t know, so we shouldn’t go — yet HAVE YOU EVER been to Syria? I haven’t. I know next to little about the country, and have no fervent desire to know more, nor do I want my government to send bombs, missiles or military personnel to Syria, at least not as things stand now. And I want my Congressional representatives to know that, which is why I plan to call them, all of them, along with signing petitions and writing this column. To be clear, I believe we should try to assist the rebels in whatever way will really help, given that they’re said to be effectively using slingshots against tanks so far. I believe we should diplomatically try to make Syrian strongman Bashar Assad pull his head out of the dark place where it’s been stuck for too long, and show him the light he’s been missing. I believe we should do all we can to provide humanitarian aid to the refugees fleeing the country, as well as the internal refugees displaced by the civil war. But that’s about it, for now. And the reason I feel this way can be summed up in one word — Iraq. You remember our second invasion of Iraq in 2003, though Iraq is not currently a very hot news topic. Then-President George W. Bush, for reasons that remain somewhat unclear, was determined from the start of his presidency to unseat Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein. Some said the Shrub was humiliated that his daddy had not pressed on to Baghdad during the first Iraq war in the early 1990s, a humiliation the Shrub had waited a decade to erase. Some said the motivating factor was then-V.P. Dick Cheney, whose military-industrialcomplex buddies saw huge profits to be made in fighting Iraq. Whatever, we went in after being lied to about Iraq’s possession of “weapons of mass destruction,” and after being lied to by Bush about how the Iraqi people would welcome us with hugs and flowers. Thousands of U.S. soldiers died, tens of thousands of Iraqis died, and the country is still a mess of sectarian strife and poor government.
To be sure, later U.N. reports indicated that Hussein planned to restart his WMD program once international sanctions were lifted, and U.S. officials now say Bush would have gotten his war no matter what, just perhaps a few months later. But coulda-beens are not facts, nor are they justifications for war. To President Barack Obama’s credit, even though he wasn’t yet in the U.S. Senate in 2003, he publicly proclaimed the invasion to be a stupid mistake that would cost us dearly in the end. He was correct, which is part of why it’s so puzzling to watch him charge headfirst toward another, potentially equivalent mistake in Syria. We don’t know for sure, at this point, whether it was Assad or the rebels who tossed chemical weapons around like confetti on Aug. 21, killing 1,400 or so Syrians indiscriminately. It seems unlikely, I recognize, that the rebels did it, unless they managed to steal some of Assad’s weapons and use them in the hope that the resultant outrage would spur military action by the West. But the plain fact is that we, meaning the electorate of the U.S., still are not sure. And I think we need to be damned sure before we dive into another Middle East conflict that already is predicted to be long, bloody and in the end, unwinnable in any sense except for high profits for arms manufacturers and government contractors. Once again, to be clear, I am not saying we should do nothing about the horrors in Syria, nor that we should never launch some kind of military strike to even up the odds in the ongoing battle between a tyrant and his subjects. I’m just saying we need more information, we need to be sure we’re doing the right thing, and we need to have an international coalition of governments at our backs and involved. Otherwise, we’re just making Bush’s mistake all over again, and nobody needs that.

POPULAR MUSIC SOUL FANS can keep waiting for the return of D’Angelo, a wish that seems bound for disappointment. Or they can pick up “Landing On a Hundred,” the wonderful new shot of soul from Cody ChesnuTT. Not as popular as D’Angelo, ChesnuTT nearly rivals his fellow soul man in how perplexing his career has been. ChesnuTT’s first album, 2002’s “The Headphone Masterpiece,” was a double-disc recorded on a four-track cassette recorder and released when he was in his mid30s. ChesnuTT had a few brushes with the big time since: the Roots recorded his song “The Seed,” and ChesnuTT was featured on the hit video, and he appeared in the 2006 movie “Dave Chappelle’s Block Party.” But ChesnuTT didn’t fully surface again till last year, when he released “Landing On A Hundred,” only his second album. The songs are old school in feel, but modern in texture and sound, with touches of jazz and hiphop. ChesnuTT plays Wednesday, Sept. 11 at Belly Up. It’s a $15 ticket, which seems a nice way to start the offseason bargain hunting.
Singer-songwriter Cody ChesnuTT plays Wednesday, Sept. 11 at Belly Up.
CURRENTEVENTS FILM
Director Alexander Payne’s “Nebraska” will be screened later this month at Aspen Filmfest.
DIRECTOR ALEXANDER PAYNE is building one of the more interesting and diverse filmographies in American cinema. Payne has explored high school ambitions (“Election”), California wine enthusiasts (“Sideways”), aging (“About Schmidt”) and family dynamics among the well-off (“The Descendants”). It’s a good time to brush up on that history. Payne, whose films are regularly featured at Aspen Filmfest, returns with “Nebraska,” which screens later this month at Filmfest. Bruce Dern, who earned best actor honors at Cannes, stars as a difficult man reconnecting with his son on a road trip. As the title promises, “Nebraska” reconnects Payne with his home state, which has been the backdrop for several of his films.
WRITTEN WORD ADAM HASLETT’S bibliography is, for the moment, slim — one short story collection and one novel. But Haslett is working to expand that output, currently spending a month-long residency here with the Aspen Writers’ Foundation. Haslett has gone for quality over quantity. “You Are Not a Stranger Here,” the “Union Atlantic” is the latest story collection from book by Adam Haslett, who is in 2002, made him a residence this month with the Aspen Writers’ Foundation. finalist for the National Book Award and the Pulitzer. “Union Atlantic,” a novel from 2010, is an imaginative work that spins together war, the financial industry, eccentrics old and young, homosexuality and more. Free copies of “Union Atlantic” are available at the Pitkin County Library and the Red Brick Center for the Arts; Haslett will appear for a reading and talk on Sept. 23 at the Woody Creek Community Center.

LEGENDS & LEGACIES
FROM the VAULT
by TIM WILLOUGHBY
GHOST TOWNS Ghost towns remain a major attraction of the West, although perhaps not as strongly as they did a generation ago. Thanks to the preservation efforts of the Aspen Historical Society, Independence and Ashcroft spin tourists’ imaginations toward the past. I admit my bias for these local treasures, yet it seems to me that Ashcroft should win as the most photogenic (albeit not most-photographed) of America’s great ghost towns. Of the hundreds of towns that boomed and busted throughout the West, nearly all were mining towns. For many tourists, the combination of abandoned mines and buildings, ancient equipment, and the possibility of finding a valuable nugget offer special attraction. Isolated ghost ranches, wind-swept Montana towns, and tumble-down forts hold interest only for those with lineage to the locale, but even mining ghost towns in the heat of the desert attract a fair share of fans, especially those four-wheel off-roaders who enjoy negotiating rough passage. There is another attractive component of ghost towns: ghosts. Some towns hold the title literally, fueled by local legends of haunted houses. As a young child who made many trips to Ashcroft before Castle Creek Road was paved, and who spent countless hours exploring the buildings, it was years before I heard it referred to as a ghost town — it was just “Ashcroft”; however, after Ashcroft became a “ghost” town, my mind conjured more interesting images. The resident ghosts played tricks on me, especially the time when I was in the jail and the door closed, pushed by a ghost for sure. The culprit had to have been my older sister, but believing that ghosts closed creaky doors, rattled tin roofs, and made scurrying sounds in the walls was more fun. Every good bookstore worth the curiosity of its clientele stocks books about Colorado’s ghost towns. The

definition ranges from town sites where there is almost no evidence of former occupation to standing towns that have been occupied to this day. After visiting Independence and Ashcroft, the three ghost towns most worth visiting are those closest to Aspen: Tin Cup, Gothic and Crystal. Tin Cup is so close to Ashcroft that residents of the two towns sometimes traded places, rolling in stagecoaches over Taylor Pass. Over the mountains from Ashcroft you find Gothic, home of the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory. Gothic is the setting of “Dipper of Copper Creek,” the Newbery Medalwinning story of mining and nature by Jean Craighead George. Above Marble and near the iconic ghost building, the Crystal Mill, the town of Crystal is as isolated a basin town as can be found in Colorado. California rivals Colorado for ghost towns, especially along the Nevada border. Its mostphotographed ghost town, Bodie, is a state park where stores remain stocked as they were abandoned. There, deterioration is barely enough to qualify it as a ghost town — the town emptied out more recently than those in Colorado. Thousands of visitors tour Bodie each summer, craving the “haunted house” stories fueled by park rangers’ tales. Some rangers have spent summer nights there alone, and a few have endured Bodie’s frigid, isolated winters above 8,000 feet, entertained by one kind of spirit or another. Literary interests aside, some

Refuse left behind in ghost towns ignites the imagination.
OF THE HUNDREDS OF TOWNS THAT BOOMED AND BUSTED THROUGHOUT THE WEST, NEARLY ALL WERE MINING TOWNS. FOR MANY TOURISTS, THE COMBINATION OF ABANDONED MINES AND BUILDINGS, ANCIENT EQUIPMENT, AND THE POSSIBILITY OF FINDING A VALUABLE NUGGET OFFER SPECIAL ATTRACTION. ghost town fans specialize in cemeteries. With crayon and paper in hand, they rub tracings from headstones as they imagine the lives of the departed and survey the peaceful surroundings for their ghosts. The ghostlike silence does not speak of downturns, bankruptcies, changing economic climates, lost fortunes, lost opportunity and lost jobs. We love those old towns;
but I suspect, had they been more honestly labeled ‘bust towns’, they would have lost their allure. Tim Willoughby’s family story parallels Aspen’s. He began sharing folklore while teaching for Aspen Country Day School and Colorado Mountain College. Now a tourist in his native town, he views it with historical perspective.

“GO GET ’EM SKIERS,” exclaimed The Aspen Times on Sept. 18, 1974. “The cheer ‘We Gotcha’ expresses the hope of Aspen High School when the Aspen Skiers Football Team meets Eagle Valley at the Homecoming Game on Saturday, Sept. 20, beginning at 1:30 PM at Iselin Park. Homecoming festivities begin Friday evening, Sept. 19, at 8 PM with a bonfire which will be followed by a snake dance through town. The big game begins at 1:30 PM at Iselin Park with admission $1.50 for adults and 75 cents for students and children.”

WINEINK
WORDS to DRINK BY
SONOMA OR NAPA? A SUBLIME CHOICE A COUPLE OF WEEKS ago this column talked about how to plan a wine trip; mentioned were a number of alternatives. So it was interesting when a friend of mine who was on his way to San Francisco from New York with a couple of days to visit wine country posed the question: “Should we go to Napa or Sonoma?” It is a pleasant dilemma and regardless of which route you take, it is inevitable that you will have a great time visiting, tasting and eating. But there are KELLY J. differences. HAYES Start with the grapes. Napa is famous for producing some of the world’s greatest Cabernet Sauvignon. While this is not all they do, of course, it is what has made Napa, indeed California, one of the most iconic wine destinations on the globe. These Cabernets are rich, powerful, full-bodied and ultimately expressive of the character of both the valley and the vintners who live there. Sonoma is not as readily associated with a particular grape. The vastness of the county and the topographic and climatologic variations provide opportunities to make a variety of outstanding wines, though Chardonnay is the most widely planted grape. But, having said that, today Sonoma is best know as a sweet spot for Pinot Noir. The Russian River Valley in particular, a large appellation smack dab in the center of Sonoma, is the source of seriously sought-after Pinot Noir. Sonoma, on the coastal side of the Mayacamas Mountains west of Napa, literally sucks fog from the Pacific into the Russian River Valley and can drop the temperatures on hot summer days by as much as 40 degrees. Grapes, especially the finicky Pinot Noir, like this. So if you like Cabernet go to Napa, Pinot Noir go to Sonoma, right? Well, it’s not quite that simple. Consider the layout of the two regions. Napa is a well-defined valley that runs about 25 miles from south to northwest and is flanked by two highways. The heavily used Highway 29 to the west and the romantically named Silverado Trail on the east are connected by a series of “cross” roads that run across the valley floor. All

of these roads are lined by wineries. The names you know — Mondavi, Domaine Chandon, Cakebread, Silver Oak — are all here and easy to find. So easy that you can actually stumble across them. Sonoma, on the other hand, takes a map and a little bit of time. It is such a big and diverse county that you could spend a month and not see everything. The drive up the coast, past Pt. Reyes, through the bucolic hills dotted by cattle who live life with an ocean view. Up over the heavily treed, rugged mountains into the valleys that drain down into the Russian River. Into the towns of Sonoma and Healdsburg, or the “big town” of Santa Rosa. Finding wineries is easy, as there are lots of them, but finding the ones you’re looking for can take some time, so you
need to plan a bit. Then there is the vibe. Napa embodies, in fact invented, that romantic notion of what wine tourism is all about. Brilliant wineries with great architecture and fabulous restaurants all surrounded by vineyards as far as the eye can see. Hospitality pros have designed unforgettable tasting experiences that not only satiate the senses but inform as well. It is costly but worth every penny. A trip to Napa is a must for anyone who likes wine. Ah, but the rub is that it can get extremely crowded — especially in the summertime and extra-especially on weekends. It can be intimidating to negotiate the crowds of wine enthusiasts and tourists who clog the roads, jam the tasting rooms and book
the restaurants and lodging. Sonoma, on the flip-side, has much more laid-back feel. A trip through the Russian River Valley is a little like driving through farm country. Ranch fences run the length of the roads and rather than estate-sized wineries, there are more modest and welcoming small tasting rooms. However, change is in the air, and the town of Healdsburg gets more cosmopolitan by the day. Still, Sonoma continues to provide bucolic scenery and great wines for wine country travelers. So, where to go? If you like Cabernet, want the simplicity, the marquee names and the professional hospitality on your wine journey then Napa cannot be beat. If you love Pinot, have the time to cruise (preferably top down) and don’t mind searching along back roads and country lanes to find your wineries, then Sonoma is for you. The best idea, as I told my friend from New York, is to take an extra day or two and do both. Hit Napa on the way up and drive through Sonoma on the way back. So little time and so much wine.

FOOD MATTERS
STIRRING THE POT
FRI ENDLY RI VA L RI E S HE AT U P T H E T H IR D ANN UAL AS PEN M AC AN D CHE E SE F E STIVAL ONE WEEK AGO, I found myself in the basement kitchen of Rustique Bistro, where chef Tico Starr was stirring a saucepot bubbling with brandy, cream and foie gras. While I stood mesmerized by the swirling mélange that would eventually shape the restaurant’s beloved pâté, Starr was preoccupied with another dish he can’t take off the menu: roasted mushroom and AMANDA truffle mac and cheese. RAE “We make a classic béchamel, which keeps the gooiness factor alive,” Starr says. “It’s a French mother sauce, with an English spin and Americanized. I add truffle oil; nutmeg is key. Gemelli pasta carries the sauce. I cut, then press, the mushrooms for two days so they don’t go all liquidy, add fresh herbs, sweat ’em down, then fold in the pasta and sauce in big batches.” The grand finale: “Our own French demi-baguette crumbs.” Rustique’s creamy, umami concoction has bested nearly 20 other competitors at the Aspen Mac and Cheese Festival for two years running; on Saturday, the ravenous masses will choose their top taste yet again. This means the coveted Golden Noodle Award, currently cozied up to an iron rooster in the Rustique dining room, is up for grabs. “I’m surprised Keith (Bulicz, the event’s founder) hasn’t picked up the trophy yet,” Starr muses. “I’ve got to ‘miss it’ for a while. It’s not mine anymore.” Bulicz, an ex-football player and a supervisor with the city parks department, has drafted a fantasy league of local chefs to compete in what is fast becoming the Superbowl of mac and cheese. Rivalry — friendly, and not so friendly — plays an unmistakable role. “The first year, it wasn’t clear what level of competition it would be,” Starr says. “Some people thought it was a barbecue. (Restaurants) were running out the first hour. I took a gamble and did 12 pounds of pasta. People come back. They only have one vote.” Except that last year they didn’t. In what may go down as the Great Aspen Mac and Cheese Festival

Scandal of 2012, Bulicz and organizers decided to switch from the tedious ballot voting of 2011 to text-messaging voting, similar to the systems used for Soupsköl and the Snowmass Chili Pepper & Brew Fest. “People who weren’t even in Aspen were voting,” Bulicz explains, adding that some restaurants sent out sneaky missives to far-flung Facebook friends and Twitter followers. “We took a lot of heat for that.” This year, votes will return to a manual count, diverting attention back where it belongs: on the food. Now that the playing field is leveled, contestants are stepping up their game.
“THE GOOD THING ABOUT A SEMI-RIVALRY AMONG CHEFS IS THAT YOU’RE ALMOST CERTAINLY GOING TO GET BETTER THINGS BECAUSE OF IT.” – LAURA WERLIN, AUTHOR OF “MAC AND CHEESE, PLEASE!: 50 SUPER CHEESY RECIPES” Jimmy’s: An American Restaurant, last year bumped from second to third place by newcomer The Meatball Shack, is running a new, perhaps risky strategy: tweaking its traditional Jimmy Mac. “We want to stand out, so we’re going to try something different,” says Jimmy’s executive chef Manny Lopez. “We’ll incorporate the flavor of our meatloaf and barbecue sauce. We’re still serving something that’s part of one of our main-course dishes.” (For the record: the bacon-and-jalapenostudded Jimmy Mac has been on the menu for 17 years.) “We’re not doing the same thing — it’s a surprise,” says Michael Gurtman of The Meatball Shack, which upset Jimmy’s last year with an applewood-smoked bacon, jalapeno and Tater Tot creation. “We’re looking to win this year.” Chef Chris Lanter of Cache Cache, which snagged third place in 2011, is ready to get back in the game. “Now it’s about what it’s supposed to be about,” he says. “It’s not a social media contest, it’s a food contest.” Just as they do during regular dinner service, Lanter and crew are focused on sourcing the highest quality ingredients available: local produce, Avalanche goat cheese and
freshly cranked pasta. “If someone else is making their own pasta, I wanna shake his hand,” Lanter says with a wink. “There are tons of vegetables available right now — September is a great time to be doing this. I encourage people to go with their taste buds, but ask themselves why it tastes so good. With all this GMO shit, we should be aware of what we’re eating.” This year, Lanter may have an advantage: extra hands. Aspen High School’s ProStart culinary class will be on-site, chopping, mixing, running and serving for Cache Cache. The group will be led by Lanter and AHS senior Nicole Zell, a member of the school’s official ProStart Culinary Competition team, which garnered third place at the Sysco Hospitality Cup in Denver last spring. (Zell, an aspiring chef, clocked 350 hours during a stage in the Cache Cache kitchen this summer.) “It’s about having fun with these kids and showing them techniques,” says Lanter, AHS ProStart industry mentor. He pauses. “It’s bragging rights, that’s what it is. When the people pick you, that’s a big honor.” Judging from past years, venues along Restaurant Row — site of the showdown on Sept. 7 from 2-4:30
p.m. — may have a slight homefield advantage. “We do batches as we go,” says Lopez of Jimmy’s. “Location helps a lot: we just walk downstairs.” Of 15 restaurants confirmed so far, a few are new contenders: The Square Grouper, Ryno’s Pies & Pints, Eight K at Viceroy Snowmass, and Aspen Over Easy. Will one of these rookies nab the Golden Noodle Award? Will The Meatball Shack replay the nostalgia card and edge into first place? Will the high-schoolers taste victory with Cache Cache? Will Rustique score a hat-trick? “I’m not resting on my laurels,” Starr assures me. “I’m steadily focusing on any little thing I can improve to make (our mac) better.” But he can only take it so far. I ask Starr if he’s pigeonholed by the classic dish he inherited six years ago: Do you feel like a rock star who’s asked to play the same song, show after show? He thinks for a minute. “It’s a great tune you can come back to,” Starr says. “Whatever happens this year, I’m gonna have a lot of fun. I have a great crew. We won twice. I just hope to bring the trophy home again.” On a cross-country road trip in 2011, Amanda Rae rolled into town during the first annual Aspen Mac and Cheese Festival. She took that as a sign.

SEVEN DEADLY SINS
BYOU (Bring Your Own Utensil)
(OF MAC AND CHEESE)
Mac and cheese can be easy to make…and easy to mess up. James Beard-award winning author of a book on the subject and six-time Food & Wine Classic speaker Laura Werlin shares the shortcomings that fail America’s favorite comfort food. 1. IT’S NOT CHEESY ENOUGH. “Cheesiness is the first and most important characteristic of a mac and cheese,” Werlin says. “I love adding ingredients — chiles or meat of some kind — but in the end the cheese has to be prominent. Otherwise, it turns into a pasta dish.” 2. IT’S NOT CREAMY ENOUGH. “Very often there isn’t enough sauce.” The worst offender, “was dry, and if there was cheese, I couldn’t find it. It felt like a joke.” 3. IT’S FORGETTABLE. “It doesn’t take much to lift mac and cheese into something that’s memorable. Even if you’re just using cheese and pasta, seasonings will really make it sing.” One caveat: “You don’t want any one ingredient — except cheese — to stand out as the prominent flavor. It’s great to have bacon, but a little goes a long way.” 4. IT’S POORLY EXECUTED. “An oven-baked kind you want to let sit for at least 15 minutes, even better after half an hour,” Werlin says. Stovetop varieties should be served immediately, or they may become gummy. “I suggest (contestants) be close by or forget about it.” 5. NOODLES ARE OVERCOOKED. Amateur mistake. 6. BREADCRUMBS ARE UNDERCOOKED. Crispiness equals contrast. 7. THERE’S TOO MUCH GOING ON. “Overstuffing with too many ingredients, turning it into a kitchen-sink pasta dish, takes away from the essence of cheesiness. A line Coco Chanel said — ‘Put on all your jewelry and then remove one piece before you leave the house’ — is a good philosophy for mac and cheese.” The third annual Aspen Mac and Cheese Festival will see competitors old and new vie for the the Golden Noodle Award. Rustique chef Tico Starr, holding the 2011 trophy, hopes to three-peat with another win on Saturday.

GUNNER’S LIBATIONS

WCD RESERVE STOBRAWA VODKA Woody Creek Distillers has done it again, creating a one-of-a-kind vodka in its Basaltbased distillery. For the Reserve Stobrawa Vodka, WCD uses this Polish potato revered for its high-starch content; Stobrawa contain almost twice the amount of starch than other popular varietals, a key factor in vodka making. WCD is the only distillery in North America to grow
NEED TO KNOW Woody Creek Distillers 60 Sunset Drive Basalt 970-279-5110 www.woodycreekdistillers.com Tasting Room hours: Tuesday-Sunday, 2-8 p.m.
Stobrawa potatoes for vodka, having worked with two universities to locate the seed. Again, only one distillation is needed to produce the purest, most desirable spirit. And with just 1,000 bottles of Reserve Stobrawa Potato Vodka available and sold at the Basalt distillery, it might be worth a trip there soon. And once you have that bottle in hand, you’d be wise to drink it on the rocks or in a martini to highlight the distinct flavor of the spirit. Gunilla Asher is taking a break from the bar scene, so we’re turning this page over to you.

FILMFEST: STORIES, EMOTIONS AND LOCATIONS ON A HUMAN SCALE
Brazilian director Bruno Barreto’s “Reaching for the Moon,” starring Gloria Pires and Miranda Otto, will show later this month at Aspen Filmfest.
HAD ENOUGH OF ZOMBIES and costumed superheroes, iconic buildings leveled and boy bands crooning at the cinema this summer? Aspen Filmfest should arrive just in time, and take things down a notch — down to the level of activity on Planet Earth as we know it. The 35th annual Filmfest, set for Sept. 24-29, gets a change in venue: With the Wheeler Opera House closed for renovation of its balcony, the festival moves into the Isis Theater (Sept. 24-26) and Paepcke Auditorium (Sept. 27-29), and the downvalley component has been eliminated this year. But the subject matter is much the same as ever, with a focus on real-life characters and human-sized stories. Moviegoers will travel not to Krypton or animated 3-Dland, but Antarctica, Alabama, 1950s Rio de Janeiro and even Old Snowmass. The characters they will meet are poets, philosophers, political leaders and the most unlikely of basketball heroes. Filmfest ’13 opens with a special preview of “Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom.” The biopic stars Idris Elba, of the TV drama “The Wire,” as the tireless South African freedom fighter Nelson Mandela, who went from political prisoner to president. The screening is free to Aspen Film members, and is also open to the public. Closing the festival will be “The Fifth Estate,” a dramatic thriller about the controversial rise of the

WikiLeaks website. Directed by Bill Condon (“Dreamgirls,” “Kinsey”), the film stars Benedict Cumberbatch as WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, and probes questions of government secrecy and the nature of information in the digital age. Additional English-language features include “August: Osage County,” “Nebraska,” “One Chance,” “Short Term 12,” “A Birder’s Guide to Everything” and “Reaching for the Moon.” “August: Osage County,” based on the Pulitzer- and Tony-winning play, features an ensemble cast headed by Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Juliette Lewis and Dermot Mulroney in a story about a gathering at a family’s Oklahoma house. The film is scheduled to open in limited release in late December. “Nebraska” is the latest work by Alexander Payne, whose filmography includes “Sideways,” “Election” and “The Descendants.” “Nebraska” returns the director to his home state, and the setting of several of his films, as Bruce Dern plays a difficult older man reuniting with his son for a road trip across the Plains. Dern earned the top acting award at the Cannes Film Festival for his portrayal of Woody. “One Chance” is based on the true story of aspiring opera singer Paul Potts, who earned stardom on the “Britain’s Got Talent” TV show. James Corden stars as Potts, and is joined

in the cast by Colm Meaney and Julie Walters. Destin Daniel Cretton’s “Short Term 12,” based on a short film that showed at the 2009 Aspen Shortsfest, is set among the residents and caregivers of a group home for teenagers. “A Birder’s Guide to Everything,” which earned second place in the Audience Award at the Tribeca Film Festival, is a coming-of-age road story about a teenage boy who wants to make his mark as a bird watcher. Director Rob Meyer will be in attendance for a Q&A. “Reaching for the Moon,” by Brazilian director Bruno Barreto (“Four Days in September”), tells of a romance between American poet Elizabeth Bishop and architect Lota De Macedo Soares in 1950s Rio de Janeiro. Barreto will engage in a postscreening Q&A. Filmfest’s documentaries will take viewers to a famed Southern recording studio, Antarctica, a special spot in the Roaring Fork Valley and more. A highlight of the True Stories segment is “Thomas Keating: A Rising Tide of Silence,”
a profile of the spiritual leader who went from a privileged New York family to become a Trappist monk at the St. Benedict’s Monastery in Old Snowmass. Director Peter C. Jones and other guests will be present for a discussion. Additional documentaries to be screened are “Linsanity,” about the improbable overnight stardom of Chinese-American basketball player Jeremy Lin; “Muscle Shoals,” the story of the famed Alabama recording studio that attracted Aretha Franklin, Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones and numerous others; and “Spring & Arnaud,” about the atypical relationship between Canadian artists Spring Hurlbut and Arnaud Maggs, with co-director Katherine Knight in attendance. Also, “Gore Vidal: The United States of Amnesia” a portrait based on one-on-one interviews with the American writer and cultural critic who died last year; the Los Angeles Film Festival award winner “Code Black,” set in the overburdened trauma center of an inner-city Los Angeles hospital, with director Ryan McGarry in attendance; “Antarctica: A Year on Ice,” the product of photographer Anthony Powell’s 15 years on the frozen continent; and “This Ain’t No Mouse Music!” about the owner of the Arhoolie record label and his quest to find and promote authentic, meaningful music, with directors Chris Simon and Maureen Gosling participating in a Q&A. Foreign language films to be screened include a pair of Japanese films — the family drama “Like Father, Like Son,” which earned the Jury Prize at Cannes; and the twisting comedy “Key of Life” — the Laotian drama “The Rocket,” which earned three top awards at the Tribeca Film Festival; and “Mother, I Love You,” a Latvian story about a troublemaking 12-year-old working his way toward maturity. The Aspen Film website notes that the surprise film is a new drama from the director of a recent Academy Award-winning film. Tickets for Filmfest are on sale to members of Aspen Film, and will be available to the public on Wednesday, Sept. 11, at aspenshowtix.com or at the Wheeler Opera House box office.

BACK TO FOOTBALL 10 REASONS WHY WE LOVE THE GAME BY KELLY J. HAYES
Editor’s Note: “Malibu” Kelly Hayes is a spotter for NBC’s Sunday Night Football. He is also a writer for the Aspen Times Weekly, penning our WineInk column each week.
WHEN THE DENVER BRONCOS and the Baltimore Ravens line up this evening — Thursday, Sept. 5 — at Sports Authority Field at Mile High (Stadium) to kick off the 2013 season, America will officially be back to football. An estimated 25 million people will tune into the broadcast of the game on NBC Sports and the opening festivities that surround it, making it one of the nation’s largest communal gatherings of the season.

THE FOLLOWING NIGHT, from Waxahachi to Walla Walla, high school stadiums will fill for “Friday Night Lights” and millions will cheer for the teams representing their towns and communities. Then, on Saturday, at our institutions of higher learning, the highest accolades will be reserved for gridiron warriors who lead their colleges to victory. Yes, in America, football matters. It matters to millions who obsessively care about the outcomes and scores and storylines of each game. But it also matters to many more millions who tune in not because they give a hoot about who is playing, but simply because they welcome the games as a diversion from the realities of day-today life. Regardless, for both the rabid fan and the casual game viewer, today marks a change of season.
My Football Life
I have been involved with football for as long as I can remember. In 1966, I pulled on my first jersey with a white #63 on it and lined up at right guard for the Mighty-Mite Greens of the Venice, Calif., Pop Warner League. For the next eight autumns, football was more important than life itself. I rose through the ranks, moving from the O-line to wide receiver as my classmates grew, and then played at Palisades High School in Pacific

Palisades. I was good enough to get invited to play at the University of Colorado, but my dream of becoming the next Lynn Swann died in the fall of ’74 when it became clear that my talents would not be required by Bill Mallory and the Buffaloes. Too short, too slow and at the wrong place at the wrong time. Determined to stay in the game, I found a niche as a spotter on ABC’s college football telecasts and later on Monday Night Football. I hitched my star to Al Michaels, who has been the preeminent voice of primetime NFL football for the last quarter-century, and also did a long stint with the great Keith Jackson covering the top college games of the week. Each week I travel from Aspen to the site of the NBC Sunday Night Football game. From my perch on

50-yard line in the press box high above the field, I watch each and every play with focused intensity, keeping track of what happens on the turf and relaying that info to Al and analyst Cris Collinsworth. For three hours a week, I am a part of the game. Having not missed a broadcast in the last 25 years or so (my current primetime streak — first Monday Night Football, and for the last few years on NBC’s Sunday Night Football — stands somewhere north of 520 games going into this week’s broadcast), I have seen enough football to have a few opinions. While there are a thousand reasons why football is so popular in America, here are a few that I think resonate most with fans.

1. The Color and the Pageantry
It is a cliché, but from the breaking of the banner when Basalt High School takes the field, to the Ohio State Band dotting the “i” in Ohio, to the furious waiving of the yellow towels by Steelers fans at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh, the spectacle of football is intoxicating. A football “event” is as much about the pageant as it is the game. Every element that surrounds a big-time game is choreographed and plotted to provide a make-the-hair-on-your-arms stand up moment. Consider the Super Bowl. While the obsessed talk “Tampa Two defenses” and “Pistol offenses,” the vast majority of Americans care more about who the halftime performers are, or whether Apple will be introducing a new iProduct. Every moment is calculated to create an emotion. One that will get fans ready for the game or make them proud to root for team and country. Or both. The singing of the anthem, the unfurling of the flag, the entrance of the players through the fire-breathing nostrils of an inflatable horse — it is an odd combination, but one that creates a frenzy in stadiums across the nation.

2. The Sense of Community
People bond with their teams. At high schools, Friday nights bring a level of community gathering that transcends the games. Families get together under the Friday Night Lights to talk, gossip, make plans and watch the town’s youngsters grow up. When we matriculate to college, we immediately identify ourselves based on the teams that represent us. Go to Wisconsin? You’re a Badger for life. Georgia your school? You’re forever a Dog. We become “members” of these teams and wear their colors with pride. It provides us with a group identity that helps explain who we are. The ultimate extension comes when we choose our favorite NFL team. Some love the Raiders, as they see themselves representative of an
outside-the-law culture. Others opt for the Giants and their buttoned down style and tradition. Some just fall in line and root, root, root for the hometown team. Fans pick and cheer for teams as a way of making a statement about the kind of people they are and the way they want to be perceived.
3. The Television Experience
It is no accident that the popularity of pro football evolved in lock-step with the growth of television. Football and television were made for each other. A 60-minute game, turned into a three-and-a-half hour show with natural breaks for selling anything and
everything is an idea that works. It works for the networks, the leagues and the fans. Football ratings drive network profits. And television exposure drives the popularity of the game. For the fans, the opportunity to gather in a bar or at a friend’s house to watch a game is a ritual that has become tradition. The “box” brings us together.
4. The Violence
Make no mistake: Our love of football is intrinsically tied to the violent nature of what takes place on the field. The game’s most popular clips are replays of the vicious shots and hardest hits of any given weekend. The water
cooler talk or social media chatter revolves around not just who won or lost, but also the hit that looked to hurt the most. This fixation is part of our make up, even though we may be horrified when can’t take our eyes off of the weekly calamity. Injury reports are discussed daily and the focus is not on pain, but rather, how quickly the injured can heal enough for the player to get back on the field. Ironically, this may be the biggest challenge the game faces going forward. Just this past week, the NFL and its former players agreed to a $765 million settlement of a lawsuit that sought to provide financial considerations for injuries suffered on the field.

50-YARD LINE DASH NFL RUN SERIES BRINGS FANS HOME
NOTEWORTHY
by JEANNE MCGOVERN
HAVE YOU EVER wondered what it would be like to run across the 50-yard line at Mile High stadium as the assembled crowd — mascots, cheerleaders and crazed fans — cheers you on? The Back to Football Run Series, which takes place in Denver on Saturday, Sept. 7, is your chance. Here’s the backstory on how the run series came to be, and its unique connection to Aspen and the Roaring Fork Valley. Longtime local Kelly J. Hayes is a runner — “a streak runner,” he admits, with 850 consecutive days under his belt as of Tuesday. Hayes is also a football guy — currently working as a spotter for NBC’s Sunday Night Football (you’ll hear his name in the credits each week, with a verbal nod to “Malibu” Kelly Hayes.) And, full disclosure, Hayes is a writer for this very magazine. His passion for wine runs almost as deep as his love of running and football. But, at his core, “Malibu” Kelly J. Hayes is guy who loves to make things happen. I know this, because I know Kelly. So when Kelly called to tell me about his latest project, I wasn’t surprised in the least. Who else could dream up — and set in motion — a nationwide race series that brings together runners, football and fans? “It’s combination of my passions, though there’s no wine,” jokes Hayes. “I just grin when I see all these people sprinting to the 50-yard line.” An exhilarating experience is

NFL Back to Football Run Series Saturday, Sept. 7 Sports Authority Field at Mile High 5K, 10K, Fans on the Field Run, Broncos PLAY 60 Fun Run Info: nflrunseries.com/Broncos/
The NFL Back to Football Run Series included the “Kaiser Permanente Bolt to the Q” in San Diego. The event comes to Denver on Saturday.
exactly what Hayes had in mind when he dreamed up the run series, while on his usual pre-game run no less. “I was running through an oil field in Indianapolis and it just struck me: What if we could hold a 5K that ended on the 50-yard line of every NFL stadium?” said Hayes on Tuesday, from the airport, where he was waiting to board one of several planes he will travel on this week. “You know, the world’s largest single day of running in conjunction with the NFL.” An idea was born and there was no turning back. From there, Hayes got the ball rolling, bringing mega-race organizers the Competitor Group to
the table. Last season, four teams held races in a pilot program. It was deemed a success, setting the stage for what would become the NFL Back to Football Run Series. “The NFL decided the best way to make it happen was to coordinate it with their Back to Football efforts,” said Hayes, adding the series also dovetails perfectly with the NFL’S PLAY 60 program, which encourages kids to get out and play. This season, with the full blessing of the National Football League, a dozen teams, including the Denver Broncos, are on board.
“All the teams have been incredibly supportive,” said Jamie Monroe, director of special events for the Competitor Group . “For us, running is everything; for the NFL, this series is a project. But they see the longterm value of the concept.” In Denver, this meant having Competitor Group take over the pre-season race formerly organized by the National Sports Center for the Disabled. “Now we can put the NFL behind the cause,” said Monroe, noting that Saturday’s race still benefits the NSCD. “Denver is a proud football city that also has a vibrant and active running community, making this event a perfect way to kickoff the 2013 season and bring the fans together,” said Dennis Moore, vice president of sales and marketing for the Denver Broncos. “We’re proud to be part of a series of races that also supports the league’s commitment to healthy families and our PLAY 60 initiative to combat childhood obesity.”

And concerns about concussions are changing the rules of the game to protect players from further injury. But there is a fine line between protecting athletes and taking the whiff of danger out of the game. We love the contact.
5. The Football Food
Pizza. Nachos. Wings. Burgers. Beers. All are synonymous with football and it is not a stretch to suggest that these foods, these comfort foods, became — for better or worse — staples of the American diet because of their association with Sunday afternoons. Each weekend millions consume billions of empty calories fueling their game-day activities. There are many fans who could care less about what happens on the field, just so long as their plates and glasses are full.
6. The Weekly Wager
Las Vegas does not have a professional football franchise and yet it may be the most important city in the game. Every week the odds makers set the lines on the upcoming games. Who will win and by how much? What is the over/under? How many first downs will North Dakota State get in the third quarter? Betting has been around since the beginning of human history, but it found its perfect marketplace in football. The last Super Bowl saw $98.9 million in bets recorded in Las Vegas alone. This year’s handle should be the first to exceed $100 million.

This week marks the start of the season for football fans, which means it’s also the start of football-centric specials at local bars and eateries. And while everyone has their top spot to watch the game, we polled our staff for a few of their favorites — either for the size and number of TVs, the drink specials or the bargain-priced bar food. Here’s a rundown: • Belly Up • Cantina • Finbarr’s Irish Pub • Hickory House • JBar • Kenichi • Little Annie’s • Matsuhisa • New York Pizza • Red Onion • Rhyno’s • Square Grouper • Sundeck (during ski season) • Zane’s Tavern (in Aspen and Snowmass)
CNBC estimated that between $60 billion and $70 billion is bet each year on just college football. With the advent of proposition bets, fantasy football leagues, and the proliferation of televised games, all the way down to high school football, gambling is as much a part of the action as a sideline catch.
7. The Lessons Learned
For many men in America, the lessons they learned while playing high school football resonate through their entire lives. The discipline required to prepare, the need to work within a team environment, the development of a skill, the need to rise to an occasion and not back down from a moment. And then there are the lessons learned from defeat. Former players, even those who may have been back-ups, still imagine themselves and how they would perform in a game-time situation when
S e pte m b e r 5 - 1 1 , 2013
they watch a game. They project how they would handle the moment when they see the most skilled players in the world play. Football is a proving ground for many young men. And even though the game passes them by, they still see themselves as players even as they age. Each Sunday they get to watch their “avatars” do battle.
8. The Rules of the Game
On the one hand, football is a simple game. Sixty-minutes long, you block, you tackle, and you “matriculate the ball down the field.” But on the other, the game is filled with nuance and strategy. Fans love to watch one team run the ball while the other throws. They love to argue about the 3-4 defense versus the 4-3. Strategy is something every fan seems to know more about than the head coaches. And don’t get started talking about the officials. Even with instant replay, the subtlety of pass interference and the interpretation, or lack thereof, can get a bar full of fans in a total meltdown We are in an exciting era in the NFL with the advent of new offensive strategies that are helmed by young, fast, smart quarterbacks. And yet these schemes are as old as the game itself. They are just readjustments and reinterpretations of previous formations and plays that have been a part of the game since it began. But it is the evolution of the strategy and the rules that gives fans something to talk and/or argue about.
9. The Unknown
“That’s why they play the games” is another cliché that every fan knows. It is a cliché because it is true. The great thing about football is that anything can happen.
We can talk all week about an upcoming game and who has the edge and what to look for etc., etc. But until the ball is placed on the tee, we really have no clue about what will happen. Maybe your team dominates. Perhaps you overcome the odds and win when no one expected it. A 60-minute game between your team and a hated rival can provide the perfect microcosm of your daily life.
10. The Players
All of the above plays into our love of football. But when it comes right down to it, it is the skill of the men who play the game that most endears the sport to millions. This week, fans will watch Peyton Manning lead his team to the line, point at a linebacker, adjust a slot receiver, bark instructions for a blocking scheme to his offensive line and complete a pass for 12 yards that will be thrown before his target makes his cut. Then he will do it again. Adrian Peterson will cut through a hole, break a tackle and dash down a sideline with power and grace that mere mortals can only dream about. Calvin Johnson will leap high above the outstretched arms of a defensive back and bring in a pass with the tips of his fingers that has been hurled 40 yards in the air to a spot that is the only place where it could be completed. DeMarcus Ware will shed the double team of two players who weigh in excess of a combined quarter-ton and track down a running back who is quicker than a cougar. It is the opportunity to watch these players do amazing things that is really the lure of the game that we love so much.
Have a great season.

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS: ASPEN HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL HITS THE ROAD by DALE STRODE
NOTHING LIKE a couple of long road trips early in the season for some team bonding. The Aspen Skiers will open the 2013 high school football season with three consecutive road trips, including last week’s seasonopening journey to Ignacio. “This will be a dress rehearsal (trip) for us,” Aspen head coach Mike Sirko said. “We’ll be right back down there in two weeks.” The Skiers kicked off the prep season with a 39-12 victory at Ignacio last weekend, beating the Class 1A school from the Southern Peaks League. Touchdowns on their first three offensive possessions helped take the sting out of the six-hour bus trip to the Four Corners. This week, the Skiers will make the short trip to Carbondale for another nonleague game Friday, Sept. 6, against Roaring Fork. The Aspen football team will open the Western League season Sept. 13 at Pagosa Springs, which is just a short drive from Ignacio — last week’s destination. “We’re excited about the season,” said Sirko, starting his seventh season as the AHS head coach. His team used a possession running game to dominate the opener in Ignacio. But with limited numbers out for the team, Sirko and his staff have had to resort to creative practice routines. “We’ve been practicing against barrels,” Sirko said with an enthusiastic laugh that has accompanying him for 38 seasons of high school football. “With the numbers, the kids we do have are a good bunch.” He said the Skiers will have to be a team of interchangeable parts, led by seven seniors. Ten juniors bolster the roster along with a half-dozen sophomores and five freshmen. “All of our seniors will be out there because we need them to be out there,” Sirko said. The underclassmen also will be rushed into duty in a season that features a thunderous start to the Western League.

The Aspen High Skiers, led by quarterback Tyler Tick (No. 2, above), kicked off the season with a win over Ignacio last weekend.
After the long trip to Pagosa Springs for the league opener, the Skiers will play their home opener Sept. 20 against powerhouse Bayfield — a team that has been to the state semifinals two consecutive years. The Wolverines were the state runner-up in 2011. Then, the Skiers will host Olathe on Sept. 27 before hitting the road to Gunnison on Oct. 4.
Aspen will host Coal Ridge on Oct. 11. The Skiers will close the regular season against two more playoff teams from a year ago — at Grand Valley on Sept. 18 and home against rival Basalt on Oct. 25. Aspen has reached the state playoffs six consecutive years under Sirko. “We’ve had to change our offense
again (to match up with personnel),” Sirko said. Tyler Tick, a junior, will step in as the starting quarterback. “Tyler is really responding well,” said Sirko, who mixes nine returning starters on offense and defense. “We started a lot of sophomores last year,” he said. Sirko said Ryan Fitzgerald will be back to support the offense and defense. Fitzgerald rushed for 151 yards in the opener last weekend. “We know Roaring Fork is going to come out ready for us,” Sirko said of the Friday game in Carbondale. “I think it’ll be an interesting game.” dstrode@aspentimes.com

A couple of years ago she was rescued and has enjoyed a loving home. Unfortunately now, Roxy needs to find her final home. Her current owner has suffered the loss of a spouse and is forced to travel frequently leaving Roxy alone or in a boarding facility. Roxy is a fabulous 8 year old Collie/Shepherd mix. She has a very sweet disposition as she is quiet and extremely well mannered. She does not jump up on people, furniture or beds. She is house broken and great on a leash. She gets along well with other dogs and cats. Roxy would do best in a home with children over 10 years of age. She is spayed, current on her vaccinations and micro chipped. If you are interested in Roxy, please visit our website at www.luckydayrescue. org or call 720-625-9966.

BOOK REVIEW
‘MIDDLE MEN’ THE STORIES IN Jim Gavin’s debut collection, “Middle Men,” are darkly comedic accounts of defeat. A second-rate teenage basketball player, a Meals-on-Wheels driver and a toilet salesman, among others, aspire to reach beyond mediocrity in love and work and play. But failure, that great leveler, always fences them in. Gavin, a New Yorker contributor and Stegner Fellow, uses the Southern California landscape he knows best as the setting for his stories. “Elephant Doors,” for example, is the story of a production assistant named Adam who moonlights as a stand-up comic in smog-obscured Los Angeles. He’s praised for the mundane work he does at his day job but gets blank stares from the crowd at El Goof when he completes his three-minute comedy routine. As he shares advice with an equally undistinguished by VICTOR BAROCAS | edited by WILL SHORTZ

Late-night visits to Del Taco and caretakers who look after the dying surface repeatedly in this collection, as do plumbers, Irish Catholics and the marginally insane. In their very ordinariness, Gavin’s characters appeal to anyone who’s ever glanced at the grass on the other side of the fence and admired its greenness. They’d fly over that fence if they could, but like most of us, they can’t quite launch on demand.

fellow comedian, Adam reflects on the sharp contrast between the two competing versions of himself, “the young fraud and the old pro.” He wishes for “some blessed third version of himself, the middle man, who could bridge the gap,” but he sees “no trace of himself in the darkness.” Others in this collection, however, are so deeply entrenched in the mundane that they no longer know it. The title story focuses on a disillusioned son and his father, whose only goal after Vietnam was “to work someplace with airconditioning.” The 30-year-old son, who is broke and living at home, decides to take a job in toilet sales at the same company where his father is considered a “plumbing lifer.” The story of this father-son duo is at once funny, heart-warming and sad; it shows how grief can steal life from
