I found this while preparing my scrambled eggs this morning. I assume it's a parasite? How would it even end up in the egg? Transfered from a parasite-ridden chicken?

Saw these symbols on the back of this Mazda and I was just curious about them. Are they military related? Thanks.

No one we've asked knows what this is. We've asked locals, even asked the Amish. The ends look like they were sharp at some point, opens and closes like tongs with uneven handles

...but my city hall is saying they are sensors, not cameras. I'm talking about the camera looking objects on top of the lights. Trying to get some footage from them.

It's red and feels like some kind of tough rubber. The bottom is kind of shaped like a suction cup but it feels like the rubber is too tough to stick. I can only assume its something from whatever they use to fill the cans or something like that.

I got this at thrift store, I think its a pen display. Its very heavy (8 lbs? and 7" tall) and rotates on ball bearings inside. I did find a pen company that has a senna model, so maybe a pen store display?? It doesn't glow under uv. No other markings!

New, what is it? I found this little tag at work, and was about to throw it away but got curious about the “W” in it. I can’t find anything similar on the internet, but I’m betting somebody here knows what it means!
