Sex and drugs and rock-n-roll, right, Mikey?  
You are incredibly immature and annoying.  
I would really go off on you here, but this is not the Pit, and I am not, as yet, a qualified Flame Master.

I live at about 1500 feet above sea level, but I understand there are some posters here in Colorado, so they probably live higher than I do.

Judging from the number of threads you’ve started, I’d say most of us pretty well guessed that. Drugs and sex seem to be your life. What a waste.  
I’m high on life and that’s enough.

Honestly, I’ve never been high and never plan to be. Never been drunk either.  
But like Melin pointed out, I’m in Colorado.

Well, the attic is three stories off the ground, so that is high, and in the basement, it’s almost underground, which is pretty low. So, I’d say, both, yeah.
