I did the exact same thing---got it pinned to a cork board in the garage right above the spot where I park my bike. I've also got one of the Riv 1-buck-buttons in the bottom left corner just for fun. I'm attaching a picture, but I made sure to NOT include the poster.....well, not that much of the poster.
<https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-J8p681IrPEM/T-zpygDwuiI/AAAAAAAAAtg/hE7yKWTxV00/s1600/IMG_1982.JPG> I really like the definition of "cherish" and the talk about *beausage*mentioned above. I think that we (as a society) tend to get fixated on *things *when we should be focus on the *experiences*. I really like how the folks at RBW promote values similar to this. These values are implicit in words like beausage and the title of Grant's book. So, for what it's worth, I'd definitely encourage others to not think of this poster like it's the original Mona Lisa.
