Suits behind the plate, Millennials and Shopping, & Who owns What

WELCOME AUTUMN! Those colors.

(thank you)

DIAMOND STYLE: Did you ever wonder why baseball umpires wear suits? About that.

BIGGEST. PET. PEEVE: This. People need to get their $#!^ together.

I ADMIT IT: I am a self confessed Anglophile and, having spent years listening to match highlights on the BBC, still have no clue what cricket is all about. So this is handy. Maybe. Let’s hope.

MODERN ART: An important collection hits the auction block on November 10th. Sotheby’s is presenting some of David Bowie’s most important pieces here. Meanwhile this is an interesting look at the connections in his collection.

AND BOOM GOES THE NIGHT SKY:

(thank you)

Photographer Francisco Negroni captured the Cordon Caulle Volcano exploding with volcanic lightning back in 2009. More here.

SUPREME COSPLAY? THE JUSTICE LEAGUE? I could go on.

ONE AND FOR ALL: There is no such thing as “free shipping.” It is a lie. LIE! You’ve read about it before. Eric H. serves up the most recent explanation why.

NEVER GETS OLD: I can watch these T-Rex videos all day long. This one is a doozy.

STFU ALREADY: This guy right here. And this is why: “If you’re a single-digit millionaire like Hulk Hogan, you have no effective access to our legal system,” he said. “It costs too much.”

PERSPECTIVE: Millennials get a lot of questionable grief from Boomers. Maybe they can teach everyone a lesson?

EMP REFLECTIONS:

(mine)

THE INTERCONNECTEDNESS OF THINGS…In one handy chart.

CONSEQUENCES: Why people get a little intense over oil pipelines. This is not a rare occurrence.

FINALLY: Someone has the courage to stand up to the bitter chocolate mafia. Then there’s this.

I KNOW WHAT YOU’RE THINKING! Halloween was last week. And you bring us a vampire story? Would this be considered a myth-buster?

BECAUSE, AUSTRALIA: You know where this is going. Or at least you should by now.

INCOMING!
