"In his domestic administration my father had this system . . . to keep a journal and insert in it all occurrences of any note . . . A record very pleasant to look at when time begins to efface the memory of events, and very well suited to get us out of perplexity: When was such and such a thing begun? When completed? What retinues came? How long did they stay? Our trips, our absences; marriages; deaths; the receipt of happy or unhappy news . . . An ancient custom, which I think it would be good to revive, each man in each man's home. And I think I am a fool to have neglected it." (Montaigne, Book I, Essay 35 (publ. 1580))

Mug shot - take one (rejected).



The traditional student ID photo. For some reason, PJr thought it would be a good idea to take it (i.e., the photo) on the chin. This photo shows take one being shot. He failed to fool the photographer however; the little lady to the right ordered up a second photo.
