On the corner

She'd sell her flowers
all day there
no matter the cold or heat.
This was 1981
several years past
the Atlanta hippie heyday.
But one of the Utopian enterprises

at communal Sunshine Flower Company.
She'd take a quick break
so we could talk and smoke a joint

Yes, Kevin, there are groups for binaries on Usenet. There are also text-based newsgroups, where binaries are not to be used. The three
you're posting to are text-based newsgroups.

Your "audience" is completely imaginary, Kevin. But dream on.

That's a rather low bar. But, as they say, small things amuse small
minds.
