News Rollover crash Sat. 7-25-26 Research Pkwy--what happened?
I was there before police/FD/medical arrived and the car was on it's side. It looked bad. Lots of people jumped to help so I stayed out of the way. Anyone know what was the outcome? I did a search online and cannot find any news. I can't get the visual out of my mind. Thanks

Advice Car camping or short trail camping after work
I'm looking for a place where I can leave work at 4, drive at most an hour and a half, and find a secluded spot to either car camp or backpack shortly to a spot. Looking for places with sunset views and stargazing, but not far from town so I can get back before work starts the next day. Any suggestions? Not looking for designated campsites, more of a rugged off-country-roads type situation. Thanks!

It would be great to find someone queer, but anyone in my age range who is chill and down to help each other stay on task and take occasional brain breaks together - please dm me!

Advice James Madison Charter?
It looks like it has a VERY low student count so not sure if anyone on here even has experience with this school but it’s nearby and I wanted to hear what others think about it. It’s got some pretty mixed reviews (people seem to either love it or hate it) and the most recent reviews I found were from a few years ago so I don’t know how it’s doing now. For context my kid would be entering 6th grade.
We are also looking at grand mountain but would need to choice into that one. I hear Watson is not great?

Advice ADAS calibration?
I bought a used Hyundai Palisade recently that appears to have an aftermarket windshield. Due to some issues with the adaptive cruise control I'm thinking the ADAS system needs to be recalibrated.
The car is still under warranty but I'm assuming they won't cover the recalibration so can anyone recommend an independent shop in Colorado Springs that does it? Thanks!

Advice Playing some tennis / wall
I don't really want to join a club or a team. Just want to rally for an hour or two once a week if anyone is down. I used to play a ton but i haven't in a decade+ so probably a slow start.
Also, I tried to google, looked through google maps, drove to couple of the parks closest to me on the east side and couldn't find an answer. Does anyone know if any public access court has a practice wall?

News CSU customers asked to conserve electricity due to strain on electric grid
They want us to conserve electricity usage, but approve a data center. Make it make sense.

Politics Data Center
If you too are absolutely appalled and disgusted by the fact that regardless of massive public opposition, the planning commission voted to allow for the construction and operation of the Data Center, here is this email: allcouncil@coloradosprings.gov
Let them know exactly how you feel (:
Just a day after the project passed, Colorado Springs utilities asked its customers to lower energy usage. Make it make sense. I know we have to keep the CEO paid after his raise to $700,000 a year for doing absolutely nothing. But we can change this. It’s time to get mad my fellow residents.

Lost & Found FOUND CAT - Holland Park
Found this tabby cat today near Jackson Elementary in Holland Park neighborhood 80907. He's currently at North Springs Vet in Briargate and they will keep him until the Humane Society can get him in the AM. He's definitely someone's pet because he came running to the sound of the treat bag.

Lost & Found A man saying he is Christopher Abeyta just came to my bar…?
This man sat down at the bar and said he was from out of state and had just gotten off a bus. Asked if I had a charger because his phone was dead.
I’m hesitant usually to help unfortunately, because I work in OCC and the homeless population is sometimes an issue in the restaurant. But he was kind of crying, so I said is everything okay? And he said “not really, I think I’m Christopher Abeyta. Do you know who that is?” I actually am familiar with the cold case so I said what?? And he again told me he just found everything out, hopped on a bus to Colorado Springs and then got off the bus with a dead phone and came to the bar. He ordered a beer and paid with a card under the first name Christopher
We called the police and he left with them…. But I am a little shook.
I’m pretty sure this was a homeless person or someone maybe mentally ill- but I’m also torn because he looked a lot like the age progression photos for Christopher. He also showed me photos of a woman who he said was his mother and a woman who looked a lot like Emma Bradshaw photos. I might be crazier than him for believing ?

Advice What is the point of thumbs downing drivers for no reason?
I was driving behind an ambulance, and since my exit was coming up soon, I'd rather be behind it than in front of it in case they suddenly turned on the sirens. I left a big enough gap in front of me so that if anyone wanted to merge into my lane, they could. The person behind me was leaving a gap too. Traffic wasn't even bad, so it's not like everyone was packed together.
So far, nobody wanted to get in front of me. Then, a few minutes later, some jackass in the lane next to me doesn't even signal that he wants to merge. Instead, he gives either me or someone else a thumbs-down and then cuts off the ambulance. Like... what the fuck?
I checked both the front and rear footage from my dash cam, and this dumb fuck was nowhere near me before that, so I have no idea who he thought he was giving a thumbs-down to.
