Rumour has it that I was raised by wolves (which would explain my odd behaviour), but I know this not only to be not true, but also highly offensive to my parents, who may appear to be wolves to the untrained eye, but are actually just a rare breed of homo sapiens known as Madeirans.
My first goal in life is to learn as much as possible from the creatures (human or otherwise) I meet, the plants I have the opportunity to stop and observe, art in all its forms, the food I get to eat everyday, and every sunrise I'm fortunate enough to witness while simultaneously living in the most remote place I can find, and document this learning experience in any way I see fit, whether through the medium of words, music, film, photography, or (admittedly pretty bad) painting and sculpture. Well, you can't be good at everything. Anyway, hopefully by the time I've died, I'll have managed to weave all my disparate stories together to show just how rich, complex, and varied life on Planet Earth can be.
Also, while we're on the topic of me, I'd just like to bring to your attention the fact that I'm awesome, and if you don't like it, too bad, because that's just how I roll. B-)

...Broncos (for now) wide receiver Brandon Marshall sat right in front of us at courtside and was wearing a light blue hat. When the national anthem began, the guy standing next to Marshall had to remind him to take his hat off. ...Denver native and Tennessee Titans running back Lendale White sat a few seats down from Marshall and when his first cousin Chauncey Billups saw him sitting there, he said "What's up, White?!" in the middle of the game. ...at half time, about half the Nuggets players went up shake Marshall's hand as if he was the godfather of courtside.
Some of the things Denver Stiffs' Andrew Feinstein noticed during the Nuggets' home game against Portland on the 7th of March. (I thought Marshall was in Seattle?)

DraftTek Simulations: Healthier than Brain Candy

The Ludicrous Folly of a Lakers Fan

I have decided to get a sheeplasty and join the uniform-creation fad.

Osi Umenyiora threatens to quit football if he isn't a starter
Moral of the story: Denver isn't the only team with selfish, disgruntled players. And you don't see Giants fans wailing about their head coach running another Pro Bowl talent out of town and making stupid mistakes like decreasing his trading value by benching him (and decreasing playing time) when he does things detrimental to the team.

Owners pull revenue-sharing plan
What this means for next season and the CBA. "Revenue sharing helps maintain the 'any given Sunday' dynamic in the NFL." ... "The pulling of the plug on the SRS by the NFL hit the union in the blind side. This is one play of many, perhaps the biggest game of any played prior to next season, when the NFL could look a lot different than it does now."

"Worst 6-4 team in the NFL? Thanks for asking. Denver Broncos. McDaniels will fail."

6-1. Not bad by any margin, but it'd be easy to leap off the bandwagon because, OMG, the Broncos somehow lost! To a desperate Baltimore team! In Baltimore! Seriously, though, where you play and...

This edition of Thoughts will be a much shorter version, unfortunately (or not).

(From a Personal Side Pt. 1) On the second-last play of the game, I felt for the Broncos' D-line. I wanted a sack desperately, but wasn't expecting it; I could just feel every muscle in their body...

If your first thought is that I got the date wrong, I didn't. It is actually the 4th already here, and this game took place entirely on the 4th of September for those of us across the Atlantic. ...

It's pre-season, so there are things to fix. Nothing in the pre-season is perfect, it's meant to be a time for evaluation and testing the water.

WalterFootball does not like the Broncos' chances in 2009.
18A part of me wishes someone like Doom could read this, because if I was tasked with hurting opposing quarterbacks, wonderful insight like this would convince me to run that little bit faster and hit that poor sod just a teensy little bit harder so our old and washed-up or too-short-for-this-league waste-of-a-pick defensive backs can show just how pathetic they are. And then maybe they can hand the ball over to our useless quarterback with spaghetti for arms, who'll promptly have to suffer the indignity of handing off to one of our mediocre running backs or, worse, try doing the impossible and actually throw the ball further than 2 yards. I know! Poor, poor Denver Broncos, for you are so, so bad with your incomprehensible form. Add another name to the list of people to call up at the end of the season, I guess...
