A photoblog and other things

This past Wednesday I took photographs for my favourite Spanish-rock band “Santos Renuentes”. I’ve written about this group a lot before. They underwent a change recently where the drummer, lead guitarist and singer were replaced. Yeah, that’s a pretty major sort of change. It was only a practice warm-up friends-invited-only session, but what’s resulted from all the changes is a band with very different group dynamics and, in my opinion, a much better sound. It was just amazing to hear and *see* the difference in the band.

Woohoo!

This is insane. Miami Heat. NBA champions.

People are going insane around here. Cars everywhere honking horns.

And just announced – Dwyane Wade – MVP.

Awesome, awesome, awesome.

Gotta go now, gotta go party.

Wow. What a game of basketball with a final scoreline of 101-100 in favour of Miami. This is the second time today I haven’t been able to sit down to watch a sports game, the first being for the loss of the Socceroos against the Brazilians in the World Cup. I swear I need new feet from all the pacing that I’ve done in front of the TV. I definitely need a good strong liquor right now.

Dwyane Wade is just an amazing player. I can’t believe the shots he made, he’s just incredible to watch. One of my friends has likened him to Jordan, minus Jordan’s attitude. Wade is just such a humble and smart basketball player, and if it’s just one reason I’ve started to take notice of basketball more, he is it.

So now Miami play the next games of the finals series on Dallas’ turf. Hopefully they can pull it off, and with a player like Wade everything and anything is possible. I can’t remember a time when I was this enthusiastic about a basketball team. Freaking awesome, folks. Freaking awesome.

GO HEAT!

PS It seems there is a GO [insert sports team here] theme going on with this site recently, I’ve just noticed!

So I’m sitting in my cube, watching in disbelief the matchcast of the Germany vs Poland match. I took this screenshot because I didn’t believe that Germany could have so many shots on goal and not get anything:

And then I saw it. Such a beautiful thing. In the last moments of the last minute my screen updates beautifully to show this:

Go Germany. After Australia, this is my favourite team. Ich liebe Deutschland (und Australien!)
