Not bad at all!

Now you've piqued my interests! :) I was going to head down a different path, but you've inspired me to further explore the use of static methods/properties/variables/other. A part of me just wants to learn more about PHP OOP, and using static members is something I've not explored much. Seems like a simple functional utility class would be a good time to play and learn more. :D > Just be careful to organize your utility methods by by meaning.

Thank you Rodrigo! I really appreciate the tips/advice and inspiration. :) Have a great afternoon!
