10 Highlights from the 2015 Nat Geo Traveler Photo Contest – Twisted Sifter I love Twisted Sifter. Oh wait, maybe I have said that many many times earlier. If I had only said how I love the Prestige card instead I could be a true Titan LOL.
Haunting pictures of the decaying WWII ‘pillbox’ bunkers that remind Europe of its dark past.
The Accidental Beauty of Flight Paths – Big Think “At any given moment, there are about 10,000 commercial planes airborne, carrying an estimated half a million passengers across the skies.” Enter Big Data and you get some stunning visualized flight paths laid out at the site: Contrailz. Wow!

In photos: 200 years of the fierce, fearless Gurkha warriors – Quartz “If a soldier says he is not afraid of death, he is either lying or he is a Gurkha.” Yeah, these guys are something else!
Stephen Curry hitting THIS last second 3 point shot to send the game to OT I was lucky to watch this game from midway in the 3rd quarter.

Find a financial adviser who will put your interests first – Washington Post Oldie but so goodie. The big commercial blogs will NOT put your interests first dear newbie if you happen to read my blog. Ask at the comments any questions you may have and we will guide you the right way. This has always been a sharing community until the big plastic bucks came into play and so many started pretending they are true “experts” out trying to help “friends and family”…
Terrible Advice I Hope Young People Ignore – Motley Fool Recently some dude wrote a blog post telling young people to stop bothering with their 401k plans. I got so angry and before I had a chance to respond Morgan Housel did! #excuse #TBBing
Don’t mess with Putin!

Oy Vey
Coming into my off season. Gonna try and start reading TBB everyday.
Fellow readers, you may want to stoke TBB’s ego by favoriting one of his tweets #EggBoost.
Meant to say #EgoBoost.
Oh well.
Nothing boosts a blogger’s ego more than watching the revenue roll in from having readers click on them, especially if it is for that Prestige card 🙂
