How do I get my pic on the concierge office wall?

So, I'm not going to make SE this year, and next year I'll barely fly 50k (almost all on my own dime), I want my years as an SE to be remembered... If I drop off pictures of myself to the YYZ and YYC concierge offices will they automatically get placed on the concierge office wall? Do I need to supply the frame or does AC? How long will my picture stay there? When AC goes bankrupt, will my picture (or at least the frame) be listed as an asset on AC's balance sheet?

Having previously inquired about this, I can lend some insight:

1) They only put you up if you are, or believe you are, important.
2) You supply the frame. The gaudier the better.
3) It will remain for all time. AC executives also include you in their daily prayers as a sign of their never ending gratitude for your gift.*
4) It's only shown as an asset if it has significant value, so be sure to sign it.

* For reference:
God grant me the serenity to ignore the things I should fix;
the courage to change the things I should not;
and wisdom to guess the difference.

That's why I'm up in YYC and not in YYZ. My conductor friend is up in YYZ, and they still dot do anything for him.

BTW, the YYC office asked to have my picture. They provided the frame. ^

I couldn't really picture you handing out pictures of yourself...You're not the type for shameless self-promotion !

Or maybe they needed your picture as picture ID to get you into the lounge !

You might get your picture posted if you become one of those "badly behaving" SE's

Jump on the FC serving cart, and pull your pants down. Yell, "I'm the king of the world"! Then drop a load on the cart. Go back to your seat. Sing the Barney song. You will have a picture on their wall.

I hope it's not the latter. Don't like the former either. But it's a better option.

Also on the important front, does one have to wait until March to learn the handshake? I'm in YYC on the 7th in the evening (20:30 until 23:30)!
