Christian Lander Calls Boulder "A Halfway House For People Who Want To Move To Canada"

The Huffington Post has a quick write-up of Christian Lander's recent appearance in the bastion of whiteness that is Boulder, Colorado. He's on tour, discussing his book new book Whiter Shades of Pale: The Stuff White People Like, Coast to Coast, from Seattle's Sweaters to Maine's Microbrews.

Of his hosts Lander said, "The typical Boulder white person is generally older than most, as the only people who can afford to own property in Boulder are those who bought it in the 1970's." Local citizens apparently took their licks in stride.
