Odd Decoration

You know how some restaurants like to spew pop culture up on their walls? TGI Friday's is notorious for this, among others.

A couple of weekends ago, my wife and I were at a TGI Friday's in Tulsa. We were seated at a table that had lots of non-wall-ish items screwed into it. There was a skateboard, an old Coke advertisement, lots of pictures, ... and a laptop.

I had never seen a laptop screwed into the wall before. It was an old Toshiba Tecra 500CDT.

Just for fun, I reached up on the wall and tried out the keypad. The keys still worked. I doubt seriously that the machine itself did, of course. Three large screws through the motherboard is seldom helpful.
