Crayola Bomb!

State of mind:
Current soundtrack: Lecturers muttering while waiting for errant classmates to come back from assignment

I found this quote while surfing a site and felt the intense need to share it with my readership, which I'm pretty sure is tiny at the time of writing. I have blogitis. I am not ashamed.

Maybe we should develop a Crayola bomb as our next secret weapon. A happiness weapon. A beauty bomb. And every time a crisis developed, we would launch one. It would explode high in the air - explode softly - and send thousands, millions, of little parachutes into the air. Floating down to earth - boxes of Crayolas. And we wouldn't go cheap, either - not little boxes of eight. Boxes of sixty-four, with the sharpener built right in. With silver and gold and copper, magenta and peach and lime, amber and umber and all the rest. And people would smile and get a little funny look on their faces and cover the world with imagination.

Colourbombs sound good to me. :D
