I know - it's even realer because it's a part of him.

I actually have something similar. It's a Ray thumbprint in blue birthday cake frosting, but it was an accident, which made it even more adorable.

Have you never read "Marionettes, Inc"?

Ray used to visit this bookshop, at least, once a year for decades:

If you live in the Los Angeles area and have nothing better to do on Sunday you might enjoy taking in a movie at the Egyptian in Hollywood to see King of Kings with uncredited narration written by Ray and spoken by Orson Wells.

I recently returned from a vacation in Paris...my first visit to this beautiful city. I spent time one day wandering around the fascinating Shakespeare and Company bookstore, and found a number of Ray's books, in their British trade paperback editions, sitting on its bookshelves. And, of course, I could not help but notice the famous sign hanging over one of the many rooms in the store: "BE NOT INHOSPITABLE TO STRANGERS LEST THEY BE ANGELS IN DISGUISE". For more information about Shakespeare and Company, the link to its website is here:

A Jehovah's Witness came to my house today, and handed me some literature on The Watchtower, and spoke to me about how the earthquakes are happening as foretold by prophecy.

I handed him one of my spare copies of "The Stories of Ray Bradbury", and told him I would be interested in speaking more with him about The Watchtower, if he read Ray's book, and came back.

He was enthusiastic! Rightly so. But still, I wonder...
