It's the end of the month as we know it...

...and there were a few birthdays in there that I missed, including one while I was offline at Pennsic. So happy belated birthday to lite, ellielabelle, and alhanna.

Hippo birdie two ewes,
Hippo birdie two ewes,
Hippo birdie deer ewes (you sure I shouldn't spell that "youse"?)
Hippo birdie two ewes!

I'd like to see these!

The other day I was out shopping. Right now it's Back To School Sale time, so things like crayons and colored pencils and markers are all on sale. I picked up three packages of fine line Crayola markers for Pennsic Heralds Point, which cost a total of two bucks. But while I was there, I looked at the colors offered in the "Bright Colors" collection. Among the offerings are "Infra Red" and "Ultra Violet".

All marketing hype, of course. But the geek in me wants to see Crayola sell markers that are *truly* colored infrared and ultraviolet. *Those* would be cool to have.
