Coming soon to a dentist's office near you...

...SOW GLAD TO SEE YOU!

There is a genre of photography often referred to as "inspirational kitten poster." Found hanging on the walls of doctor's offices waiting rooms and second grade classrooms, such art features rays of sun piercing through mystical, cloudy skies, downy, goofy babies, or small, furry animals delightedly nuzzling at their mother's nipple, accompanied with a a textual platitude of staggering flatness, a saccharine biblical verse, or an excruciating pun. "Hang in there" is a classic example, with its cuddly, nervous kitten dangling from a precarious twig.

I took these photographs in Ilum, in the Guatemalan highlands, a couple of weeks ago. The best caption submitted by a reader wins a smoky one pound slab of premium Polish bacon from Eagle Provisions.

This little piggy went to market.
This little piggy stayed at home.
This little piggy has roast beef,
This little piggy had none.
And this little piggy cried "Wee! Wee! Wee!" all the way To Blair's house to become part of a yummy breakfast sandwich.
