Here's one I found out in the wild just before my birthday a couple of months ago. It was my find of the day here. Finally slabbed it and figured since I found it I get to name it

The end cut

Thanks for looking!

I Wanna Rock!!!

That's insane! Hard to believe you find that stuff by the Verde. What a great birthday present.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
