This is where we differ. Perhaps my quip on the book's images set off a
wrong tone. I should not have done that.

In any case, in my mind, this is not at all like painting a mustache. Cute
or otherwise.

In my mind, it harmonizes the images.

Remember that my background is of Chinese painting. The calligraphy is an
integral part of that.
