Red Bull Stratos Psych

Epic event that you were eagerly anticipating, that is suddenly cancelled, er, "delayed" until a later date - even though many people, perhaps hundreds of thousands, are already on site and waiting for it to happen.

Etymology:
On October 09, 2012, the Red Bull Stratos free fall from the stratosphere with pilot Felix Baumgartner, supremely hyped as "a mission to the edge of space that will try to surpass human limits that have existed for more than 50 years," with live feeds on redbullstratos.com/live and youtube, live feeds watched my *many* the world over, with viewers holding their breath in anticipation of the stratospheric balloon flight to more than 120,000 feet / 36,576 meters and the supposed record-breaking freefall jump in the attempt for Felix to become the first man to break the speed of sound in freefall (an estimated 690 miles / 1,110 kilometers per hour), while delivering valuable data for medical and scientific advancement...cancelled, er, "delayed" until the next day, at the *very moment* the launch was supposed to happen.

Randy: "Hey, I wasn't expecting you guys to show up for this important meeting, I thought you would be at your desks watching that Felix Baumgartner thing on the youtube like everybody else..."

Luther: "Oh, no, man...they pulled the plug on that thing, like, last minute."

Nate: "It's like, a total Red Bull Stratos Psych, ovah here."

Stratton Mountain

Decent, medium-sized ski resort in southern Vermont. Trails are not terribly difficult, but has some nice cruising terrain. Vertical drop is mediocre for Vermont but biggest in southern green mountains.
Fake developer village at bottom of mountain easily impresses Mcmansion dwellers but otherwise has no real town or population center nearby. Probably ranks second in contrived, commercial atmosphere after Killington. Nice scenic drive to/from resort.

McMansion Dweller: Hey guys I just stayed at this quaint New England Village at the bottom of Stratton Mountain.

Guys: That Village was manufactured in a factory in Perth Amboy, NJ 2 years ago. You need to go to Stowe my friend.

Stratosphere

The Stratosphere Tower is a large hotel and casino with 2,444 room on the Las Vegas Strip. The Stratosphere features a tower that is the tallest building west of the Mississippi, which at 1,155 ft (350 m) is not only the tallest structure in Las Vegas, but also the second-tallest structure in the United States west of the Mississippi River, after the Kennecott Smokestack near Tooele, Utah.

The Stratosphere has a restaurant, bar and three rides(The Big Shot, XSCREAM,Insanity the Ride) all located at the top of the tower.

The best view of The Strip is from the top of the Stratosphere.

Strato

Cool, awesome, chill
Like the word stratosphere, being near it means you are closer to the top of the biodome; high above others

"Looking at the stars? That's pretty strato dude."

Straten

Elite, unluck any other. Everyone wants to be one but can't. Unable to obtain the status quo of a Straten.

You will never be able to reach Straten stature, unless your born one.
