Sunday
Today was a very lax day. Mainly because I slept a good portion of it away; I didn’t wake up until nearly 13:30. I knew that I was tired, but I didn’t think that I was that tired. I watched a few of the early games and did some laundry, but I didn’t really do anything until it was time to head to ‘s for the Browns-Ravens game.

The child sex trade is a global nightmare, but a former Interpol agent and a Boulder nonprofit are doing something about it.

Thanks to for pointing out this article to me.

Football

Cleveland at Baltimore
13 – 27
We went to Mr. and Mrs. ‘s house for the Browns-Ravens matchup. The last game was Week 1, the Ravens lost and I wound up VERY drunk, thanks to penalty shots of vodka.

Tonight was a different story. Tonight was the return of RB Jamal Lewis, following his two-game suspension. Tonight was also “Pitch Black,” the debut of the Ravens’ all-new, all-black uniforms.


The Ravens had only had field goals on the board going into halftime, but they went to the lockers with a slight 12 – 10 lead. The second half was more hardscrabble defensive, but added a Jamal Lewis rushing TD as well as a game-clinching 106 yard, NFL record-setting INT/TD by Ed Reed.

I had a few shots of Bacardi Razz (for the Browns’ TDs and field goal), but took the lion’s share of the abuse tonight. And… we both took a shot, per an agreement with , late in the Fourth Quarter.
