 /**
  * Why CLOSURES are great!
  * 
  * Think of Closures as Functions within Functions... where nested functions have access to parent function variables 
  * and arguments. So, you may ask? 
  *
  *     Closures allow developers to temporarily cache data!
  *     Closures can simplify recursion or iterations (aka visitors pattern)
  *     Closures can solve real-world `callback` problems; especially powerful for asynchronous callbacks.

 * 3) Want to use anchor constraints (top, right, etc.) to position the popup anywhere relative to ANY parent?
 * 4) Want to position the popup relative to the mouse or any other specific location?
 * 5) Want to cache the popup content for super-fast reuse ?
 * 6) Want it super easy... with no need to worry about events or memory cleanup?
