Pray Phone

So, you're walking down the street. Suddenly, you decide you need to pray right then and there. Sure, you COULD just pray silently in your mind, but what fun is that?

Enter the Prayer Booth:

MDolla

It's pretty obviously a modified phone kiosk (not exactly a "booth" really). The website, written in somewhat broken English as you will see, says this is in Florida, but the sixth photo down sure looks like New York, probably Manhattan, to me. Are these a franchise or something? Have any of you seen one of these? Are they popping up all over on the streets of Big City America?

Incidentally, the manufacturers should pray for some English lessons. The instructions use "it's" when they mean "its." Yes, I'm a nit picker.

It's a conceptual art piece.

It's clear that at least two of those pictures are not Orlando. The first shows a mountain in the background, and Orlando is not in a mountainous area. The fifth large one has a street sign labeling the street a snow route--again, not an Orlando feature.

Please stop using Tinyurl.
My computer hates it.

Already been done.

Check out George Lucas' first movie "THX1138".

Thanks, BZB, that clears things up a lot.

What does Tinyurl do to your computer, Shurruma? I usually only use it when the original URL is like a million characters long.

If Expression Engine would cooperate with me, I wouldn't have to post dopey non-linking URL's at all.

I didn't notice the mountain but I caught the New York-style street signs.

My security software says Tinyurl is a spy site and blocks it.

My Firewall identifies it as a spysite and refuses to go there.
