Thank you for that high school flashback. :p
I wonder if the Zeno solidus I’ll be submitting soon will get that label instead of the standard “Corinthian columns” label. It’s kind of neat.

Ahh, good on you, @Randy Abercrombie. I wondered how the new member found my giveaway. His daughter now has three entries in the random drawing,...
Good on you, Sal. And I’ll make this post an extra entry in the drawing, so if @Palos1390 ‘s post (#58), your post (#59), or this one (#60) come...

Re. this, again- [ATTACH] Ooh, yeah, she’s got a messed up, mutant, backwards hand, too, doesn’t she? LOL I immediately thought that image was...
No, I was talking about Kentucky’s “spider” on the dollar bill, which I do not see. I see the “face” in my own image of the faux-marble bathroom...
