Hello Collectors;
     I'd be hard pressed to pick only ten of my favorite meteorites as I have
so many that impress me with their internal or external structure, shape or
beauty. But as to the names of meteorites, well, here are my top ten names:
1. Apex (At the top of my list.)
2. Answer (What's the question?)
3. Bagnone (And why not?)
4. Barwise (Something it took me years to become.)
5. Beer Bottle Pass (See #4.)
6. Big Rock Donga (The nick name I'd love to have...Hey guys, there
     goes Big Rock Donga!)
7. Broken Bow (From Custer Co., the kid in me still loves Cowboys and
Indians.)
8. Cartoonkana (Because I have Cartoon Karma. Would one of you Aussie lads
tell me what the "kana" means? A close second to Cartoonkana is Camel Donga.
Does Donga mean "big expanse" or "hot desert" or "Kangaroo droppings" or what?)
9. Crab Hole (Well, because I like the critters, both along the shore and in
my soup!)
10. Cockelbiddy (Hey, the Aussies do have a way with names, like Dingo Pup
Donga, Gunnadorah, Kittakittaooloo, Millbillillie, Milly Milly, etc. Do the
Aussies stay up late at night, drinking one beer after another, trying to out do
each other with wild names? Like...George named his Donga "Dingo Pup", so I'm
gonna name mine "Muckera Laundry Rockhole Big Rear Rabbit Donga!" )

That's my top ten list up to the D's.
High Regards To All, Fred "Big Rock Donga" Hall
