Tomorrow marks two important events. I'll be playing in the first round of the Denver Open. No, I'm not paired with John Elway, but lots of good players are there, and there's a $100,000+ (!!!) purse at stake. I'm not playing my very best at the moment, but hopefully I'll play well enough to make the cut and a paycheck.
Coincidentally, that's the same day the new edition of 5280 Magazine comes out. Dave Cullen has written an article about Denver bloggers, and he says that four are featured prominently: TalkLeft, Vodkapundit, the World Wide Rant, and (gasp!) this one. How my little blog got included with those is a mystery, they get hundreds of thousands of visits while this one gets a few dozen. Thanks Dave!
You can read more about the Denver Open in today's Rocky Mountain News and Denver Post.

In my version, I called your site a "treasure," but that got taken out--not because they didn't like it, but because it was in response to something else that got cut, so you had to be introduced in a different way later in the piece.
(Initially I made fun of some of the lamer stuff out there--without mentioning any names, of course--and then said something like: but for every dozen dogs out there, you stumble on a real treasure like WalterInDenver.)
I hope you get some hits. I don't know how well print will translate to web traffic. But at least people might remember your name, should they come across you later.
