The first recorded photo of Buenos Aires’ Boca Juniors football/soccer team, taken in 1906. If all goes well, I’ll be seeing these guys play next week. Well, not these exact guys, but guys like them. (via Wikipedia)

The Sartorialist: Sartorialist #1 - Earl Schuman
My Dad was the #1 fan of this blog. Everyday he looked at the new posts and would read every comment.
The Sartorialist marks the passing of his dad. Given all the warmth and humanity that comes through in this guy’s blog, it’s not all surprising that his dad was great too. Very moving.
