098 = Something Blue and Diamond Birthdays Too

💙What are the most extreme examples of something old, something blue, something borrowed, something new?

💎What’s up with diamond birthdays?

🔥A new special one-time bonus section from Matt.

💼And a look into the business briefcase.

For the Diana Spencer Tiara, look no further: https://www.sothebys.com/en/digital-catalogues/power-image-royal-aristocratic-tiaras/the-spencer-tiara-r-s-garrard-1930s

Here’s an image of Ezra Jack Keats’ children’s story The Snowy Day:

https://www.nypl.org/events/exhibitions/galleries/childhood/item/11304. Selected from the millions of books that have been checked out of the library since 1895, Ezra Jack Keats’ children’s story The Snowy Day, described as a “charming, beautifully illustrated tale of a child enjoying the simple magic that snow brings to his city,” tops the list.

And, perhaps the best suggestion from Bec, the Blue ‘Pantheon’ aka Meteor 3200: https://www.space.com/42236-weird-blue-asteroid-phaethon.html#:~:text=Asteroid%203200%20Phaethon%20is%20a,typical%20for%20comets%20than%20asteroids.

Finally, this is the Diamond Birthday Tik Tok trend mentioned in Matt’s dinglett: https://www.tiktok.com/@misshaleymichelle/video/7196331969838566702?lang=en
