Paper Cricket 

A new display push pin for displaying artwork and other pieces on walls and other surfaces. With a slit/wing to hold the paper, you do not have to puncture or damage your works when putting them up.
John: "Dude how'd you put your picture up without poking it?"
Bob: "I used a paper cricket. Those thumbtacks don't work as well as these push pins."

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
