BEVERLY HILLS (MI) – My Dad grew up in rural West Virginia during the Great Depression. He graduated from high school when he was only 14 years old. One of his favorite stories about the challenges of being so educationally precocious was reading aloud in class one day and encountering the word “picturesque.” He had never seen it before and so he pronounced it “picture-squee” much to the delight of his classmates.

In honor of dear old Dad, let’s get ‘picturesque’ (and ‘videoesque’) shall we?
