Purple Precipitation

Thought for the day:

Prince sang about “Purple Rain.” If rain–and all other precipitation–were purple, things would look very different. Purple snow would be particularly cool.

(I had intended to post a Photoshopped picture here, but I prewrote this Ping and forgot about it. So no Photoshopped purple snow for you.)

Would purple snow stain my sidewalk?

Harold was onto something with that purple crayon of his.

there was orange snow in Russia earlier this winter. So it kind of scares me what kind of chemicals it might take to get purple precip.

Purple snow must be better than YELLOW snow. (You KNEW somebody’d bring that up.)

Ciao,

Talk about purple rain only gives me visions of Apollonia’s boobs. God, those were such a great thing to see at age 12. *sigh*

I miss the instant gratification of posting a message without that “approval” thing. Can’t some of us who have never posted anything offensive or spammy in nature be given a cyber VIP card? And no, not the cyber VIP card that Ryan keeps hidden in his bottom desk drawer.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
