Now, THIS is funny timing. Is it worth mentioning that this is re-working of the actual May 1972 cover of National Geographic? My sister has been watching that newer show called "The Leftovers" and the May 1972 issue of NGM actually figures in as a plot point to the show's premise. She asked me what was 'so special' about it, for the show's plot. I sent her a image of the cover a few days ago, so this photo is very fresh on my mind.
Here's a link to an article talking about the May 1972's prominence in "The Leftovers" --->

And, for all: here's the actual NGM cover that this beer parody image Tom is sharing is based upon!

This is awesome, Scott. It makes me appreciate my poster more. I hope I can take, and post, a better picture.
