food that'll kill you, sweet words, and a mummified fairy

Today I learned that you can get the plague by eating a squirrel at the Denver zoo, and, assuming the quote in question is correct, you can still use 'rad' to mean 'cool' or 'groovy.' Ok, now I just learned that 'groovy' first came into existence in 1937, so slang has a longer shelf life than I thought.

And only the better part of two months late, I learned that the mummified fairy a prop maker turned up in his garden for April Fool's is totally rad. Dude.
