Here's how it works:
Every week, we all start with the same randomly-generated four-digit number (call it ####).
Go to Flickr and search for "IMG_####". There should be anywhere from a few hundred to a couple thousand results.
Choose an image from among the results, post it to your blog (be sure to include attribution and a link back to the page where the image appears--this is done automatically if you use the 'blog this' feature in Flickr).
The rest is up to you. Write about the place shown in the image. Make up a story about it. Connect it to some issue you care about. Or just post it as an image you really like. Do whatever you want.
I think I like this one because this kid looks like he's already pushing his boundaries and he's only five months old. Also, in a neat bit of freaky symmetry...his name is Tom. Careful, kid, push too hard and you're gonna fall off the other end of that sofa.
...and if that isn't a metaphor for life, I don't know what is...

I like it. That's a kid who's going places...even if it is only off the couch. ;-)
He's chillin' before his audition with Kubrick for the Star Child role in *2001: A Space Odyssey*.
