Do not open walnuts squirrels have left in the yard when they are still in their green shell, for the juice will stain your fingers beyond any immediate remedy (to wit, soap, alcohol, nail polish remover, and De-Solv-It).

My mom, a few minutes after I'd opened said walnut: "Oh, I forgot they used to make ink out of walnut shells back in the seventeenth century."

Yeah, my fingers are going to look dirty for a while.
