I’m very proud of students who are taking the action that American politicians won’t. Image from this Twitter page.

A few quotes from Gary Kubiak about new Broncos QB Case Keenum, from this Houston Chronicle article:

The reason he’s where he is, first and foremost, is his work ethic. He wants to be great. His presence among his teammates is as good as I’ve ever seen. He never judges people or acts like he’s above them. He treats everybody the same, and guys want to make plays for him.

Case played well (in his rookie year), but we couldn’t win a close game. One thing I learned about Case is that he’s such a mentally strong person. He can handle any type of locker room and any kind of teammate. He’s very consistent on and off the field. His teammates respect that.

A lot of guys would just go in the tank with a start like that (0-8), but Case kept battling because that’s the kind of guy he is. He’s very comfortable in his own skin.

I don’t care who he plays for, you’re not going to put Case in an uncomfortable situation. He’s got a lot of confidence in who he is and how he carries himself. Guys respond to that.

vox.com has a story titled, In Colorado, a glimpse of renewable energy’s insanely cheap future.

I woke up to find snow in the mountains west of Boulder, Colorado. Last night was a clear night, so it was probably there two days ago.

Brock Osweiler on the Denver Broncos quarterback situation, circa December, 2017: “There’s a lot of things that take place in this business that you can’t control,” Osweiler said. “And I think the sooner you learn that, the better mindset you’ll have toward situations like this. So I support whatever the front office decides, the coaches decide. I’m just here to work hard and play quarterback when my number is called.”

There’s a little snow in the big mountains to the west and northwest of Boulder, Colorado.

I came across this unusual looking cloud formation on the drive back to Colorado yesterday (December 6, 2017).

Dr. Jill Carnahan of Louisville, Colorado, has a good article on mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS).

Fewer than 800 people want to see Mike Pence when he visits Colorado next week.

When life gives you cream, make a White Russian. Dude.

The first snowfall of the season is underway here in Broomfield, Colorado.

The first snowfall in the Boulder/Lousiville/Broomfield, Colorado area is expected tonight and tomorrow.

On this day a few years ago, when I first moved to Colorado, I was living in two hotels and an apartment, a by-product of moving here from Alaska, with all of my belongings in my car. (Little did I know it, but I would move again a month later.)

UCHealth — otherwise known as the place that treats me for mast cell activation disease — has a nice article about Rob Lowe and addiction.

Wow, so a local sports news guy named Mike Klis tweeted, “Don’t confirm to Nicki,” then deleted that tweet and wrote this tweet, confirming that he meant to write that as a DM but made it a tweet instead, thereby shooting himself in the foot twice.

Some people in Colorado crack me up. A recent conversation:

Me: Yada yada yada, I have an autoimmune disease.

Other: You should try marijuana.

Apparently there’s a honey badger roaming around the University of Colorado campus in Boulder. For more information, see the DailyCamera.com.

wunderground.com says we might have 1-3” of snow on Friday. I think that would be the latest snowfall we’ve had at ground level (not in the mountains) since I moved to Colorado.

I went for a walk this morning to clear my mind. There’s still some snow here.

A case of “The Plague” is reported in Broomfield, Colorado. The story is here at thedenverchannel.com.
