‘‘Life is about using the whole box of crayons.’’ — RuPaul
I always liked to color. As a kid, I remember the joy I felt at getting a new box of Crayola crayons. (Product placements often are rewarded with the company sending items to the endorser. Hint-hint.) Coloring is fun, whether on a piece of paper, on the computer or on the sidewalk. And this is coming from someone who suffers from a degree of colorblindness. Sadly, I’m not someone who remembers many details of my life, but I distinctly remember the first time I went to a major-league game. When I was a kid, we only had black-and-white TVs, but I can assure you I loved it nonetheless. I watched shows and sports, and baseball was my favorite. My dad took me to my first big-league game, and I remember walking to our seats from the concourse and seeing the field. I never saw anything so beautiful. The green exploded within me. As the artist Wassily Kandinsky said, ‘‘Color is a power which directly influences the soul.’’ It was then — and still is — a magnificent feeling seeing that ballfield. Today’s quiz is about colors. All the questions and/or answers will have colors in them. Enjoy it, have fun and learn a lot.
