I have to wonder about the title. Beyond the cryptic joke, it doesn't say "stationary."

Not sure what's more clever; the image or title. The title is what drew me to the image in the first place and made me take a good long look. Nice job!

It scares me a little bit that the title makes sense if I study the image. Nicely done.
