flickrcast - Episode 6

nothing on top but Episode 6 and a mop and an illustrated book about birds...

i [jason] was more hoarse than mr. ed in this episode, so if you hear a lot of drinking noises, that'd be the reason.

flickrcast group

sometime in the past two days, bryan, i, and MemoryMotel all had the idea that there ought to be a flickrcast group. MemoryMotel set it up, but has since turned over the admining duties to us. the group's just awaiting some new members now, so if you've got anything you want to discuss or anything you want to add to the pool (please read the group description for the type of pics to add), join us at the flickrcast group.
