I would be curious to know what capacity he is joining the military...jonesing to be shipped off and fight somewhere vs. the national guard or some other lighter form of the 'fray' are two different things.

He joined for the healthcare for his family. I'm pretty sure they said it was the Army reserves.

It's filled with mostly Austin people. Bringing the whole "keep Austin weird" thing to the interwebs

I disagree. I think on the Mondo Thread Spectrum of weird vs normal we're only about 95% towards weird. Which is low.

I really hope they do this again! That is what got me into collecting posters! How far in advance did they announce it last time?

Don't remember off the top of my head, but keep in mind they've only ever done it once (2013)...and I'd bet that was more because the Academy wanted to go big on posters that year (had Olly do their poster, plus did free poster giveaways through G1988).

They have done this twice. 2012 and 2013.

I want to say they announced it the Friday before the show. And they only previewed three of the posters beforehand. (Les Mis, The Master,and Paranorman)
