1. The image above and similar images that will on occasion pop up in this space henceforth are the result of:
A) Vivid memories of drowzily roaming the halls of parochial elementary school and glancing at countless strange posters on bulliten boards that were either supposed to educate or inspire, but did neither;
B) Falling in love with an irresistible stack of moldy textbooks during a recent bout of thrift store hopping for an unrelated project;
C) No longer having the luxury of toying with, doctoring, and/or reworking the cheese-heavy illustrations of the textbooks I rarely studied from but absolutely cherished as a school-going lad;
D) All of the above.
