R. H. Bing (October 20, 1914 โ April 28, 1986)[1] was an American mathematician who worked mainly in the areas of geometric topology and continuum theory.
Bing's father was named Rupert Henry, but Bing's mother thought that "Rupert Henry" was too British for Texas. Thus she compromised by abbreviating it to R. H.[5] Consequently, R. H. does not stand for a first or middle name.
When Bing was applying for a visa, he was requested not to use initials. He explained that his name was really "R-only H-only Bing", and ended up receiving a visa made out to "Ronly Honly Bing".

Okay but for real: does the Gay Ram Wool Shop just sell skeins of like, sport or aran weight? Because there are a nontrivial number of magicians in my life who would appreciate shawls out of that.

POND RULES:
No swimming, jumping or gallivanting.
Do not disturb the pond witch.
No fishing with dynamite.
Sacrifices to water gods on alternate Wednesdays only - NO EXCEPTIONS!
Taunt the crows at your own risk.
If a hand comes out of the water to beckon you, turn and walk away.
Do not feed the weretrout.
Is the water burning with cold unholy fire? Report it to the ranger!
Theyโre not ducks. Run.
Have fun!
You know, I'm not sure I ever really read the Pond Rules at our local nature preserve all that closely before

If someone knits or crochets you a blanket or sweater, they want to keep you warm AND they dedicated many hours of their lives to making it for you.
There's no profit in fiber arts, not when you can get a machine made at Target for 30 bucks. So know fiber artists making for you? Is an act of love.
