Border Beatdown

Border Beatdown

For about five minutes last night, at the very beginning of the first half, a pretty good basketball game was underway in Lawrence, Kan.
After that, though, the Kansas Jayhawks brought what they normally do against opponents in Allen Fieldhouse — a full-on smackdown. Last night, Kansas recorded it’s nation-leading 54th straight victory in Lawrence, [...]


The State of Things

The State of Things

Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon delivered his second State of the State address last night in Jefferson City, promising more jobs brought to the state and funding for K-12 and higher education, but also called for substantial cuts from the budget, to the tune of $253 million. Republican Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder wasn’t shy in giving [...]


The Best of My 2009

The Best of My 2009

This year hasn’t been too shabby for me.
I edited and published a book. I got my masters degree from Missouri. I placed in CPOY.
I got drunk at Mardi Gras.
Here’s a look back, from Spain to California and all the places in between. If I learned anything this year, it’s never stop looking and don’t [...]


What a Finish!

What a Finish!

OK, so I know I should be completely, utterly, totally, wholly upset that Kansas lost to Missouri yesterday during the Border Showdown in Kansas City. The thing is, I’m not as much as I thought I’d be.
It was an amazing game between two teams that just wanted to pound the crap out of each [...]

The West really is one of the most beautiful places around. Wide-open, good light, and heck, even the people are pretty nice. Some other highlights from my trip to Casper, Wyo.:
• I bought a pair of cowboy boots from a local store that’s been around since 1919. The salesman helped me get the right fit [...]

From my first time shooting cross country. The mud was epic.

Went to Spain with Jackie for 9 days. It was an amazing country and I really enjoyed all that we did there.
We set up a blog too, at delcoche.wordpress.com. Check it out.

I went to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. Luckily, I still remember when every one of these pictures was taken.

St. James: Wrestling

Hung out with the wrestling team in St. James today trying to make a story. There’s one girl on the team, Britney, who, in my 5 minutes of conversation with her comes off as a total hard-ass.
I like her already.

Apparently, the Devil lives here in Missouri…big surprise. Actually, not, it’s just a cave nearby where my friend Phoebe and I went to enjoy the unseasonable 68 degree weather today.

I felt like I shot this game better than the last one.

…the Columbia way. (Which means with a parade!)


Freedom of Speech

Freedom of Speech

…no matter how egregious that speech is.

The National Socialist Movement held a rally in Jefferson City today. Lots of profanity on both sides, but law and order was mostly maintained. I think the best part was when the NSM leader started talking on the steps of the Capitol, and his microphone kept cutting out, which [...]

…for Gary Pinkel and the Missouri Tigers. St. Louis, Mo. Way behind on this, but hey, school get in the way sometimes.

At least the MU football team thinks so.

So…it’s my first post in awhile; probably because I just finished moving, started a new job and really haven’t got off my butt to shoot anything lately.
Anyway, Douglass Park – Take 1:

I’ve taken ones like this before, but I like this one best.

Some stuff from last night’s KU-MU game at Allen Fieldhouse…
I’ve been there for games more times than I can count, but it was definitely an experience from courtside.

The students always throw up little pieces of newspaper when they introduce KU.

Cheerleaders doin’ their cheer.

King Arthur’s court, as some like to call it.

Staring contest.
