I think it's a photo-attached sign for a photo that shows two cockroaches conferring on a piece of ledger paper that's blown up against the siding of a house. Okay, I'm being a bad sport. :(

Congratulations, Angelica. You win the big prize. I think it's a car. :driving:

Lightbulb, tick. A bowl of something? No. Reflecting? Mainly no.

That's what I thought someone would say! The picture slightly resembles the

blow from a Bessemer Converter (not sure that there are any of these left, now)

or from some other steel-making process. No.

I re-open this to add that I'd *hoped* someone would say that!
