Somewhere, Rihanna is Crying
Last month in New York, strong winds and heavy rain wreaked Stalinesque havoc on the only (known) object of affection shared by Rihanna and Andy Rooney: the umbrella. Luckily, Patrick Griffin documented the devastation.

DLR and Madonna
Some Googling tells me that this photo is from 1985, but who knows. DLR and Madonna at what looks like a house party. Evidently, they may have been dating!?!
This photo came from my good friend Lindsey, who sends out an email every day with the subject line “Good Morning.” Attached is the most beautifully curated collection of a dozen or so photos. Every day! Sometimes there’s a theme, sometimes not, but there’s always a thread. I love looking for it and I love seeing what makes her tick.
If you want to be included in her emails, speak up in the comment thread and I’ll ask nicely.
Photo of an Astronaut from Earth
Apparently, if you’ve got a powerful enough telescope, you can see how those repairs are coming along on the International Space Station from your back yard. Could you imagine if you saw him float away?
From the site:
These two frames, taken with a video camera and a telescope, reveal remarkable details of the International Space Station (ISS) orbiting some 350 kilometers above planet Earth. Recorded during last month’s visit by the crew of shuttle orbiter Discovery on mission STS-119, the pictures show extended solar arrays glinting in bright sunlight against a dark sky. They also likely capture the blurred image of a spacewalking astronaut during the mission’s EVA-2 (Extravehicular Activity-2)! The astronaut is installing equipment along one of the station’s truss assemblies.
