Silly Site o' the Day

White Rabbits! I got into the office nice and early, and got all the work done that I could before heading upstairs to take part in a number of Community Impact Day activities, volunteering to help stuff bookbags for low-income kids and put together cleanliness kits for homeless New Yorkers and learn about the importance of giving blood, particularly to help those with sickle-cell disease, and write letters supporting the Trevor Project and watch a roundtable video interview with Special Olympics participants... I logged something like 5-1/2 hours of volunteer activity, which always feels great. This evening I took the subway up to Yankee Stadium, where I met up with fellow volunteers to see the Yankees fall short once more. Really great seats, although the sound was so deafening I had to wear earplugs through most of it, and a colleague drove me home after the seventh inning stretch so I didn't have to worry about any more public transit. Although I wouldn't have minded if they'd had cool street art like this fellow in Amsterdam:
