Best Thai Food in Denver

Posted by admin on Jun 20 2008 | Fun Things To Do, Uncategorized

I don’t know why I decided to write about this one – perhaps because my stomach is starting to gurgle and grumble with those mid-afternoon cravings. I am also thinking about good food because my wife and I happen to have a babysitter for our 3-year old tonight, so I am thinking of where we should go to enjoy our temporary childlessness.
We both love Thai Food, and there are a lot of options in the Denver area. Tommy’s Thai is a great choice, but a little more fancy than we care for. We always fall back on Swing Thai because it is very casual, and superb food. There are 3 locations in Denver, and we go to the one on Pennsylvania street. They have a little outdoor area if it is nice out, and the inside is quite nice and we never have had to wait for a table. My wife always gets a Thai Iced Tea and the Massaman Curry. I always get the Egg Plant Pud Gra. The spring rolls are always excellent.
Swing Thai is also good because my wife has a cornstarch allergy, and many Thai Places use this cheap ‘filler’ ingredient. Swing Thai does not, as far as her tummy can tell. Swing Thai also delivers, and they are usually very, very fast. We have done this on several occasions. Anyways, I am getting too hungry to concentrate, so I’ll just say that Swing Thai is our favorite in Denver, and you should definitely give it a go.

Detecting Fraud and Tracking IP addresses

Posted by admin on Jun 07 2008 | About Our Site

A very powerful thing at your disposal to help detect if a potential “renter” is a fraudster is their IP address. The user’s IP address is essentially their signature when they surf online, and will you exactly where they are in the world. Naturally, you will want to be careful if someone is contacting you from Nigeria, or from out of the country.

A typical IP address looks like this: 41.220.75.3

To track where a user is from, I like to use this tool:

www.ip-adress.com/ipaddresstolocation/

It usually gives you one lookup per day without having an account. I signed up for an account (it is free) and you get several lookups per day. It is a great tool that will provide you with a map of where the IP address is from, and other valuable information.

IF YOU DO suspect that a fraudster or scammer is contacting you, please send us the information (IP address) and we will block them from using the site.

A rainy day in Denver

Posted by admin on Jun 05 2008 | Fun Things To Do

Today feels like we are living in the Northwest somewhere. It has been cool, drizzly, and just really pleasant. I love it when it rains here because there are times when we can go seemingly months without a drop. It also seems to mellow people out a bit, and cleans up the air! I’d have to say this is also my favorite time of year. Not quite stinkin’ hot yet, and everything is about as green as it gets.
For a fun thing to do in Denver on a day like this, Go to REI’s flagship store down on I-25 and Speer – you can’t miss it. It’s an awesome multi-level building with a Starbucks and even a climbing area for little kids. Great people watching too. There are several loft properties within walking distance from REI.

Denver Neighborhood Map

Posted by admin on Jun 02 2008 | Helpful Denver Tips & Information

A lot of folks looking for a home or a loft may be doing so from out of town. Many of my listings mention neighborhoods. I found a good but simple map of Denver that breaks down the neighborhoods. This might help people to visualize where in the city the prospective home or loft is.
