Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Thread faux pas

Re: Thread faux pas [sort of like this one...]

I've noticed that several of you BF'ers are writing the words; "face palm" rather than loading the picture. Same goes for the ever popular double face palm. In your opinion, which type has more impact, the written word or the pic? Please advise.

Pic has more impact, but words do get the point across.
