Fall Colors
Posted in Politics on September 26, 2009 | 3 Comments »
Fall is the season for all the browns, greens, and dark plaids to come out, but it’s refreshing to see a bit of color from time to time. I normally don’t mess with colors like this, so it’s always really cool to see those who can do it with ease. With that said, I spotted this [...]

Glenn Kitson and Andy Bird, of The Rig-Out, are here with his new take on the blog community. After browsing the first couple of entries, it’s safe to say it is one of the more promising, stylish blogs I have seen in a while.
Andrew Jackson’s Inauguration

After seeing Issac’s great portrait of Andrew Jackson at Simple Conniesseur, it reminded me of the massive amount of history instilled in me growing up on the man. I have always been thoroughly interested in history of all kinds, and as with any child going to grade school; state history was a big part of [...]

The pioneering into the Western United States through the beginning all the way to the end of the 19th century was not only a turning point in America’s history through industrial advances, but in pure civilized nature. The Union Pacific railroad expansion offered thousands of jobs and new ways of life to countless Americans, but [...]

LIFE: Parisian Student Riots – May 1968

I love this series of LIFE photos showing the 1968 Parisian student riots. I have seen a slew of photos from the event from burning cars, marchers, etc, but I can’t think of very many in color and with such vibrancy as these. The style in them is outstanding as well, and is a lot [...]
DR&DR Top Vernacular Posts

A few days ago, someone mentioned a great idea to me on the Anniversary post about a ‘Best-Of’ if you will. I always wanted to repost some of the incredible photos from past posts on early 20th century vernacular photography. I figured there are probably a lot of people who don’t have the time to [...]

It’s hard to believe that it has been a year since I first started this blog to cure boredom and write about off the wall things, people, and places. It seems like just yesterday so much that I didn’t even realize it had been over a year until I was looking for my Woody Allen [...]
