Bronco Nation, I understand how you feel. We had Peyton Manning and a Super Bowl parade just a few years ago and now we’re 5-10. We missed on Paxton Lynch, Trevor Siemian and Brock Osweiler are third-stringers at best, and we’re hurting. The problem is that when emotions get involved decision making can suffer. Human […]

Like all great romances, it began with a connection. He was raised in Guadalajara, Mexico, in an enthusiastically Catholic household. Was it the fixation on blood, death, and rebirth that steered his imagination in a certain direction? Perhaps, but who can say for sure? The only thing we do know is, starting from a very […]

There is no perfect diet for everyone, in spite of what you might have heard. It seems the human body can adapt to almost any diet and survive, even thrive! Consider the diet of the Inuit, the people indigenous to polar locations such as Siberia, Alaska, Canada, and Greenland. Theirs is a mostly meat diet, […]

There’s little else in this world that makes me more excited than finding a good bakery. It’s almost like finding that mystery twenty dollar bill in your pocket, but if that twenty was a fifty. Lucky for me, I stumbled upon a beautiful bakery storefront while strolling through the neighborhood of Five Points. It’s not […]

It was only two years ago that the Broncos were hoisting the Lombardi Trophy as glitter rained down LoDo. Missing the playoff’s last year was unfortunate, but most of Orange Country assumed that with another year of growth in Trevor Siemian, the rise of Paxton Lynch, a few coaching changes, and Von Miller and company, […]

I’m told that Star Wars was the first movie I ever saw. My parents made the fairly questionable decision to take two-year-old me to a crowded theater, and my gut tells me it was probably my mother’s idea. At some point, Dad probably said, “It’s not like he’ll remember it.* What’s the point?” Mom probably […]

If you haven’t visited Ratio Beerworks yet, then I’d be bold to claim you haven’t really experienced the true Denver beer scene. Though not the only brewery inspired by music (for our resident heavy metal brewery, there’s Trve), Ratio is Denver’s own punk rock brewery, located in the heart of the RiNo arts district on […]

Hospitals around the country are using music therapy as a way to ease a patient’s pain, lower blood pressure, and reduce anxiety and depression, allowing patients to heal faster. Thirty-five percent of healthcare facilities in the US offer music, of some form, to their patients. An article in the journal, Pain Physician, indicates that music functions […]

The Colorado Buffaloes lost quite a few seniors from last year’s basketball squad, but that never seems to affect coach Tad Boyle. Boyle’s team is off to another good start at 7-2 despite a lopsided loss to the 13th ranked Xavier Musketeers 96-69 last Saturday. Colorado rarely has the benefit of McDonald’s All-Americans or in-state […]

On a busy corner of Sheridan Blvd with views of Sloan’s Lake lives a neat little brewery rooted in some interesting history. This side of Sheridan is technically the city of Edgewater; a bright-lighted arch welcomes you to this quaint sandwiched suburb, a literal stone’s throw from Denver proper across the street. In recent months, […]
