Sign Language

At the Korean War Memorial in Washington D.C. you’ll see these signs at the fountain asking people to not throw coins into the water.

The photo below was taken in the same spot where I had the pleasure to watch one of the visiting high schoolers toss coins into the fountain.

I wish I had bought one of these.

From the National Mall near the Washington Monument.

just kidding - I know that hip hop is not evil.

This graphic was on a billboard in Seoul, Korea. I’m not exactly sure what they’re selling here, but I think it includes two or three different vices. Sounds good to me.

Shown here are two of the examples that I am using with the 4th and 5th grade after-school Tech Club at a local elementary school. Their first assignment is to take a photo and turn it into a poster along the lines of the one shown above, or to create a balloon bubble photo like the one shown below. These are two of the effects available at fd’s Flickr Toys. One thing that I forgot about was that these youngsters have never heard the Todd Rundgren song that the photo above was based on, so I’m going to play the song for them next time just so they don’t think that I’m totally clueless.
