That is the Mississippi you can see through the big hole in the levee that is 3 blocks from my house. There's another levee one behind that one, so it's not really a big deal, but it's still pretty disconcerting.
In Shawano, WI for a funeral this past weekend, found this in the church library (yes, I stole it). Finally...some answers.
Taken about a year ago at a Pittsburgh Pirates game. Those are fireworks in the night sky and in the foreground is the statue of Roberto Clemente.

So I was up at my cabin this weekend, watching baseball in my bunkhouse and taking a nap. When I woke up I walked towards the door and this dude was sleeping right in the corner.
