an unusual name for a band

- What's a 7 letter word with three "u"s in it?
- I don't know, but it must be unusual... so what's your band called, then?
- "Haddocks' Eyes"
- That's an unusual name for a band!
- No, that's its name. It's called "Haddock's Eyes", its name is "An unusual name for a band". Ask our manager...

I have to confess to an inordinate fondness for dandelion seed heads. Of course, everybody likes them… I feel a lion’s tooth series coming up.
We start with a perfect sphere, so fragile that a whisper unbuttons its perfection, then there’s the slowest, gentlest explosion  as the tiny inverted white umbrellas each waft and eddy and spiral away, so beautiful in their own right, their weightless dance consoling us for the destruction of the whole.
