    The imgur site isn't available from the UK. I believe the same product,
    but a different image, is available here:

    there's a little glitch that's preventing me from posting from Csiph.
    ---------- it may be something on my browser

    I thought the cat was holding a CD, but assume it is a Japanese Maneki-
    neko.

    In Jp anime (even today) doctors have this
    thing that looks like a CD on their heads.
