I have no idea what that means or what is happening in this photo. But I did learn there are five tests in this historic ongoing series between England and Australia, each test lasts five days (as you know) and the first test this year was a draw. A five-day sporting event that ended in a draw. Hard to believe that cricket hasn't caught on here in the States. I will now go microwave my breakfast.

Welcome to Monday. I studiously avoided the internet since Friday afternoon, but I assume nothing interesting happened anywhere.
Wait ... there's Americans ... there's Americans on the moon?
