@cicerone imposter,
												Some years ago, we took the old wallpaper down in the living room/dining 
room.  (By "we", I mean "I".)  The wall was riddled with nail holes.  The area 
across from the fireplace looked like it had been used by a firing squad.  
Since we were going to paint, not paper, I spent a lot of time prepping the 
wall.  After much careful work, I had it smooth as a baby's bottom.
That's when the Lovely Bride showed me the wallpaper she had found and 
absolutely loved.
We're still married.
