How to carry an umbrella

Its been raining often here in New York the past few weeks and with Falls rainy season around the corner and summer dwindling down (not to depress anyone)  makes me want to write about umbrellas. 

We can assume that there are plenty bad habits out there, the trick is to teach yourself something new every day.

Carrying an umbrella is a little misleading due to the structure after all, they put crooked handles on the end right? But that's not how an umbrella is to be carried.

The correct way illustrated by our man with the lord's hat, is to grasp it by the middle with the handle pointing to the rear.

 And there you have it.
