If they can get along, why can't we: Dogsheep

A Los Angeles truck driver noticed something strange happening on the side of the highway: two creatures - bred to fear or control the other - making their journey to safety the only way they know how - together.

The driver pulled over and let the dog jump into his backseat, followed immediately by the forlorn sheep.  Both are now resting in a shared kennel, not sure what the big fuss is all about.

Hey, There's a Hippie in my Crayon Box!

Crayola is celebrating 50 years of unrivaled success in the crayon industry by introducing a semi-centennial edition of their signature 64 Box of Crayons.   (Where's yer fancy shrink-dinks now, huh Jethro?? huhhhh??!?)   

Okay, but hold onto your butts - the real story is that the names of eight classic colors have changed.

Taste the new hotness ("andy, crayons aren't for tasting...") --

Laser Lemon is now Super Happy
Wild Tangerine is now Fun in the Sun
Screamin' Green is now Giving Tree
Orchid is now Best Friends
Hot Magenta is now Famous
Beaver is now Bear Hug
