Ever notice when you have a head cold, like I do now, that everything seems out of balance? This sense of instability is attributed to equilibrium, defined as a “condition in which all acting influences are canceled by others, resulting in a stable, balanced, or unchanging system.” It also makes everything seem as if you’re an inhabitant of Wonderland. I’m expecting that any moment now a white rabbit will clumsily hop in front of me, waving his pocket watch exclaiming, “I’m late! I’m late!”.

First of all, thanks goes out to everyone who participated! I wasn’t expecting so many heartfelt comments, but memories have a way of tugging at our emotional strings.
Surprise, Surprise
Due to the generosity of Adam Michela, Adam Smith and Alberto Gonzalez I’m now giving away not just one Flickr Pro account, but four five! This is fantastic considering I was fretting over the fact that I only had one prize to give out.
The Winners
Now for what you’ve been waiting for; our judges have decided (based on a combination of brainpower and caffeine) and the winners are: Robert Pollack, Rob Cottingham, Henna, Kenneth and Bryan Peters.

Since I’ve never held a contest of sorts I figured now is the time, and not only that, I feel someone will benefit from the prize. Whoever wins this contest will be rewarded with a 1-year Flickr Pro account courtesy of Ludicorp Research & Development.
Contest Rules
It’s pretty easy, all you have to do is leave a comment with your favorite memory from childhood. That’s it! I’m a nostalgic kind of person and so are you, so this should be relatively easy.

The following comes from an email interview I had with John Martz of Robotjohnny.com for my Typography course.
Around 1997, Canadian graphic and font designer John Martz decided to design a typeface which would be inspired, in part, by his childhood and his bewilderment with the opposite sex. According to Martz;
It shares its inspiration with a lot of my work, which is the stuff I grew up on as a kid — Hanna Barbera cartoons, little Golden books [and] Looney Tunes. A fun, almost retro style.
