I like arugula.

Not the plant (it's okay, but a pain to strip from the stalk) - the word.

It's fun to say.
Arugula. Aruuuuugula. Arugula arugula arugula!

I think rutabaga is fun for a similar reason. Do I want to eat it? Nope, unless hidden by butter or cheese or whatever.

What is the hat-with-arms that you use as a picture?

Hat with Arms? OH! Funny, I never saw it that way before.

I thought it looked Gorey-ish, but I'm not fluent (obviously!) Thanks for enlightening me.

Figbash made his first appearance in a book called The Black Doll's Imbroglio. (http://anguish.org/~greyson/gorey/index.shtml)

Why am I not surprised that *you* saw it as a hat, oh Mistress of Silly Hats? :):):)
