I hope everybody had a good Thanksgiving. I had a very good one– I spent the day in my wonderful hometown of St. Louis, MO with my friends and family. In fact, I am posting this direct to you from the very room that I slept in throughout my grade school and high school years! Of course, it has changed quite a bit (my mother has since moved out all my furniture and replaced it with a couch and a desk), but I thought I’d give you, dear reader, a look at what my room used to look like.

Posters I Had On My Wall During High School (In Clockwise Order)

- Pulp Fiction movie sheet featuring Uma Thurman*

- REM’s “Monster”

- Road Kill Cafe

- Two 3D posters from Valiant Comics (one featuring Ninjak and one featuring Solar, Man of the Atom)

- Pulp Fiction still featuring Samuel Jackson and John Travolta

- “Afterburners Fried My Homework”, promotional poster from Boeing Aerospace Program

- Jackie Chan’s Rumble in the Bronx sheet

- Various triangular banners, including Cardinals, Chicago, Walt Disney World, Immanuel Lutheran School, and F14s

- Three comic book posters, featuring Batman and the Joker*, Spiderman 2099 (if you remember that– geek), and Prophet drawn by Stephen Platt (and if you remember that you really are a geek)

- Barry Sanders, Detroit Lion

- “Interlaken” poster of Swiss Mountains, given to me by my aunt

- Cross stitched picture of an eagle with Bible verse, given to me by same aunt*

- Independence Day ID4 poster: “We always thought we were alone in the universe. On July 4th, we’ll wish we were.”*

- Have a Day and Have a Night posters (I believe everyone owned these right around 1995, and I, of course, am no exception)

*Are still on display somewhere in the vicinity of my current living space in Chicago, IL
