How about some new colors for crayons?

I submit “Fade to Black”  
and “It ain’t easy being Green”.

So we have a box of 64 to fill.

It seems all my ideas are one of two categories.

**Bodily Fluids** :  
Baby Shit Green  
Semen  
Menstuation  
Ear Wax

and

**Rock Bands** ,  
Pink Floyd  
Blue Oyster Cult  
Black Sabbeth  
Green Day  
Moody Blues  
Crimson King  
White Snake

with the possible exception of my favorite: Michael Jackson White.

And I’d like to say that I really like **Mr. Blue Sky** ’s Pink-o Commie. That was a good one.

Crayon colours I’d like to see:

_Invisible Pink_ (so that the kids at the Church of IPU Sunday school can draw pictures of the Invisible Pink Unicorn)

_Fear_ (I imagine this colour as being somewhere between brown and yellow).

_Bird Poo_

_The Sky On Your Planet_

_Transparent_
