So, after three hours of poker when I had won the grand sum of a dollar, I decided to attack the back-bedroom. The wallpaper was coming down. New wallpaper was going up. Shelves were going up. Progress had to be made.

I carefully considered the opportunity cost, financial and non-financial, and came up with the following table


Poker ............................... Wall-Stripping

Earns 50 cents an hour ............. Saves 40 dollars an hour
Sedentary ................... Physically tiring
Mind-numbing ............... Mentally relaxing
Not sweaty ...................... Sweaty

Anyhoo, I cleared the books piled higgledy-piggledy against one wall, filled the washing bowl with hot soapy water, and got to work.

This is what I found. Do you think the flat is haunted?
