Aaron
Sergeant Stubby (1916 or 1917 – March 16, 1926), the most decorated war dog of World War I and the only dog to be promoted to sergeant through combat
Ok, this dog was promoted to sergeant. This is definitely worth leaving as the last thing I post for a bit (not sure if I’ll have much free time at Pic’s).

Super cheesy song, but :30 is one of the nicest things I’ve ever heard. I’m un-repentantly stupid for love songs - it seems unlikely, but it might be true.

A Lens on Lenz in the South Side [Pittsburgh Post-Gazette]
When Frank Lenz left Pittsburgh in 1892 on what was then a newfangled “safety” bicycle, carrying little more than a camera, a revolver and a homemade umbrella, he expected to return to the city two years later, after completing a spectacular bike ride around the world.
He didn’t. Lenz and his bicycle disappeared in Turkey, after he made it roughly 15,000 miles across the United States and several countries including Japan, China and Iran. (more)](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m430l8pjJc1qakblyo1_400.jpg)

HANNIBAL - RULER OF CARTHAGE (Mordern day Tunisia)
Regarded as one of the greatest generals of all time, Hannibal and his overpowering African armies conquered major portions of Spain and Italy and came close to defeating the mighty Roman Empire.
I could take him.
Children’s Board Game Depicting the Austro-Prussian War of 1866 (1886)
This contemporary lithograph brought a sanitized version of the Austro-Prussian War of 1866 into children’s playrooms and family parlors. With throws of the dice the player could move a total of 60 spaces – from preparations for war in the spring of 1866, through the early skirmishes that predated the Battle of Königgrätz on July 3, 1866, to the Prussian victory parade through the Brandenburg Gate on September 21, 1866.
That is one hell of a board game.
Another great map! This one’s in German - “Unerforscht” means “Unexplored.”
I really gotta go, I don’t really (haha I just realized I was about to use the word really twice already - what’s wrong with me) have time to find anything great. But I like this smattering of pictures, it seems nice. Yea, good stuff..
Jermaine Rogers - There’s something I like about this picture. I’m not sure what.. maybe she looks mischievous.
“Men have called me mad; but the question is not yet settled, whether madness is or is not the loftiest intelligence– whether much that is glorious– whether all that is profound– does not spring from disease of thought– from moods of mind exalted at the expense of the general intellect.”
Edgar Allan Poe. (via hcolley5743)
This seems pretty self indulgent, but I’m not posting it because it’s about me, it just makes me want to meet other writers who have fun playing around with ideas. That’s my favorite thing to do, most people take a lot of ideas about what is true for granted. I like artist that bend all the rules. I probably seem like an aspiring intellectual, but they’re the things I find adventurous and fun.
