Brad Pitt Fighting Gay Marriage Ban

18 09 2008

From the Huffington Post:

LOS ANGELES — Brad Pitt has donated $100,000 to fight California’s November ballot initiative that would overturn the state Supreme Court decision legalizing same-sex marriage.

Bravo Brad.  Bravo. 

I find it odd and disturbing that other than Ellen, Brad Pitt, and myself, there aren’t many celebrities that are open about their support for gay marriage.

8 09 2008

According to Mental Floss, the Library of Congress has recently uploaded a bunch of photographs to its flickr page.  And evidently there were some color photographs being taken in the early 1940’s.  It is stunning to see that the world wasn’t actually black and white back then.  Take this boilermaker from 1942 for example:

 

Check out the other photos at Mental Floss or browse through the entire collection at the Library of Congress’ Flickr page.
