They're bugs.

In a beautiful stroke of randomness, I'd just like to say that I knew what cochineals were, and how they make a beautiful maroon colored dye, before CSI even aired.

Thank you, Josefina. Everything I need to know about obscure CSI plot points I learned from reading the American Girl books.

*snerk* Same here--well, except the source. Signs you have done too much research into historic fiber preparation... :-)

In other news--have you seen the promo for next week's ep--or heard the chatter on the "Your Tax Dollars At Work" board. Oh. Em. Gee. We have got to cath up with the canon timeline, cause Goddamn that would be too much fun to pass up. Well, depending.

*double snerk* Gotta love fiber preparation. I could tell you some passed down horror stories of dyeing with indigo... and where the expression 'you haven't got a pot to piss in' comes from ;) By the way, a friend of mine in AZ is big into knitting, and she's bought her own sheep farm. She's getting a llama soon. I think you two need to talk.

What's up on YTDAW??? RP what now?

[withherhands]

Hee. We just might. :-)

DUDE. Okay, firstly--do you want to know something of what happens next week or are you spoiler-phobic? 'Cause dude, major GS stuff happening. You can see find out all about it in the thread for 5x13 in the spoiler section of YTDAW.

*rubs hands together evilly* Cannot WAIT till next week.

Semi-OT: At work, I saw someone wearing a CSI sweatshirt, and I thought of you. The guy laughed and told me he doesn't actually work at the CSI I was thinking of. Sucks.

Hehehe. Sweetness. Did he go to the College of Staten Island? Because that gets abbreviated to CSI all the time. Speaking of which, I should probably get down there one of these days and get myself a CSI sweatshirt... hmm...
