[Text talking about picture goes here]

I am on a bus.  The cord that connects my camera to my computer is not on the bus.  This is a generic, free, ok-to-use icon that has been run through a generic, free, ok-to-use "image to ascii" online utility.

Friday Recommendations!  What have you been reading/writing/listening to/playing/watching lately?  Shamelessly self-promote or boost the signal on something you think we should know about - the weekend’s ahead of us, so give us something new to explore!

And, like on all threads: please remember to use the "post new comment" feature rather than the "reply" feature, even when directly replying to someone else!
