Dated, but what could be funnier - 30 ton meteorites on the skids, or fossil shenanigans? (****) - Simon Garfield: Mauve: How One Man Invented a Color That Changed the World

Hats
- Never insist on having your own way. Merely have it, and say nothing."
Socks
- I am a sock machine. Not that I churn them out, no, but in the way I wear them, multiple pairs at a time when on location, with toe warmers. Love me some wind chill. Warm ankles go a long way towards happiness.
Bugs
- Sometimes they're drawn or painted. Sometimes they're 3-d and scrunchy. They belong on the ground and are made to play with.
All right!!
