I love 2001. I love dark chocolate. But I have never heard of this origami tree, and I feel its absence in my life now that I've heard of it.

You have to see it someday. It is truly wonderful. A few years ago, the New Yorker magazine carried an article about the volunteers who fold the ornaments every year - they get obsessed about it, folding ornaments during their subway rides, etc., just as we get about crocheting stuff.

You want to see wild, rabid wallabies? Brave!

What does not kill us, makes us stronger.
Or something.

Oooh, neat. I've never heard the term before: "zipper tangerines"? Where do they call them that?

I think I first heard them called that in Boston. It made perfect sense, because you just zip the peel off.
