This beautiful piece was the winner:

Depression Era Photos in Color

I love it when I see old photographs in color. It brings them to life in ways not possible through a black and white print.

The Denver Post is featuring a collection of color photographs from 1939-1943. I first came across this collection in 2007, but I found myself as riveted to the screen today as I was several years ago.

I think we have a need to connect to generations of the past, and color photographs of those times allow us to do that in ways we haven’t had before.

Ladies, is it really too much to ask that you clean up after yourselves if your tinkle drips on the toilet seat?

I have to share this exchange between myself and a McDonald’s employee this afternoon:

Me: Are fries the only side that you can get with the combos?

Employee: Well, you can get large fries with any of our combos!

Me:*facepalm*
