Surfing for porn at Mickey Ds

You can tell I've been on a bit of a surreptitious-photography jag lately (here), and I'm guessing it'll continue for a bit because strangers can be so gosh darn fascinating. Like this sweet lady who I spotted across a crowded McDonald's restaurant. Wait, it's not a restaurant, but we'll argue that one another day. Back to the story.

I never did get to see what she was up to, but by virtue of the rather cheeky title of this post, I smiled as I imagined her hoovering the nastiest kinds of multimedia content through the free Wi-Fi connection, and all for the price of a medium soft drink - oops, "pop" - that she nursed along for at least 45 minutes.

Regardless of whether or not she's an in-public porn addict, it's still nice to know the technology revolution hasn't passed her by.

Your turn: The coolest place you've ever used free public WiFi is...?

I had free wi-fi at the Toyota dealership.. and it was with THEIR computers... Their waiting area has 3 pc's for the public, also tv, coffee and comfortable couches..

As a freelance photographer I find myself between assignments and out on the road... so many times I'll look for a firehouse or volunteer ambulance company or some other such place that might have wireless internet and I'll piggy pack.
