On Shorpy:
Today’s Top 5

As he grew older,

Narcissus became increasingly short-sighted.

98 ... 99 ...

100. Well, that's enough push-ups for today.

Stream-sippers

We stream-drinking hikers of the 1950s always carried a cup on our belt. There was a stainless steel one with handle designed to slip under your belt for the purpose.

Yum!

Come for the hiking, stay for the giardia!
