Ooh, the raspberry! I am strong believer in real color for winter coats. The landscape is brown and gray for months and a coat which is not either of those colors lifts the spirits of the wearer and anyone who sees you in the coat.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

That is funny! WTF is the "no shooting craps" thing supposed to represent?
I was taking a test to see what kind of learner I was, and I was very torn on some of the questions because I think I hate reading pictures and diagrams of things because they are not good, not because I am not visual!

Color is also useful when you are crossing the street in the dark because it gets dark too damned early.
Not that I've heeded that advice, I just am very aware that I'm really not visible clad head to toe in black.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
WTF is the "no shooting craps" thing supposed to represent?
I guess it's just supposed to be no littering, but why is the litter square? No clue. I swear there used to be ones with a martini glass for "no alcoholic beverages" or whatever, and it always made me laugh that the subway was outlawing martinis and craps!

This conversation reminds me of a conversation a million years ago when I was talking Oscar picks with a co-worker who declared herself a Movie Nerd and asked if I was one, too. I could only answer "No, just a regular nerd".
I vote yay raspberry, also, Sophia.
