When Bobby Adedge was 18 years old, he had already won two Olympic gold medals. By the time he was twenty-two, he had been a well-known goalie on a prestigious professional hockey team. He had married an even more famous supermodel, who had her own budding career as an actress.

His inventor-phase was short-lived.

Wade Davis is an ethnographer who also does writing, photographer, and film making. He went to Columbia to study a group of people that was believed to be lost people of the Amazonians. The question that has been brought up for this paper is whether or not Wade Davis is a good ethnographer?

I was explaining to him how I was annoyed at the thought of singing the song because it was a love song and at the time I was going through a heartbreak and did not want to sing about love. He then told me a story about how when he was in high school
