I've never written out a contract on a napkin, nor have I traveled with thousands of dollars in my backpack but I've been to remote regions of Colombia that many people are afraid to go to because they've been at the center of Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia activity—just to verify whether the coffee that I'm purchasing is organic or not.

The science was also used to catch the Golden State Killer and has solved many other cold cases recently, including one last week in which a WWII veteran was found to have stolen the identity of an 8-year-old and another just days ago in which DNA on a napkin helped solve the killing of a 12-year-old girl.

While I may not be able to imagine Eggleston navigating through the mundanities of life, such as shopping for groceries or filling out a form of any kind, I can imagine a sober, sharpened, parallel-universe version of him scribbling out a Unified Theory of Everything on a paper napkin and then tucking it as a kind favor into Albert Einstein's astonished hand.

Throwing aside Big Bridal's horror stories of disastrously chosen napkin-holders and nausea-inducing color pallets, Lee teamed up with comedian Jacqueline Novak, author of depression memoir How to Weep in Public and creator of Riot series of the same name, to write her hilariously frank, unapologetically "do-you" advice book for the newly engaged, Weddiculous: An Unfiltered Guide To Being A Bride.

How about a woman who's a fan of Dave's work sees him at a bar and slips him her number on a lipstick-stained cocktail napkin, but later on that night when Dave calls the number, a man answers and tells Dave that he's kidnapped his father and won't release him unless Dave can come up with $1.5 million in cash by sunrise?

Wholesale prices for N95 respirators, which in regular times retail for around $1 apiece on store shelves, have soared as high as $12, and Chinese factories that have nothing to do with the medical supply industry have scrambled to retool baby diaper and sanitary napkin production lines overnight so they can pump out high-demand medical gowns and face masks.

There may have been something you can call a story from a scribbled napkin, about a reserved girl with big dreams who works at a bar, and a frizzy-haired nice guy disguised as a douche, disguised as a nice guy, who falls in love with the lead-dancer-reserved-girl that forgets about her dreams, who now suspects that he's a douche, but he's not.

Although DNA evidence, found on a soiled sanitary napkin from Giesbrecht's home, has linked her to the human remains in the locker, her lawyer has brought up questions throughout the trial about whether or not other women staying at the house had access to the bathroom attached to the master bedroom, and whether or not her husband had sex with any other women — which he denies.

At a Paris café on the eve of 1968, a Galician Jew turned American literary agent named Brodny meets an initially unnamed German-language novelist and asks him for "his story," which the novelist takes to mean "the story of his life," but told in the Hollywood-style: short enough to be sketched on a napkin, quick enough to be pitched in an elevator.

I watched her during the Democratic primaries in 2008 as she greeted a crowd of voters in Charleston, W.Va. One woman described to Clinton a litany of her life's struggles in the space of a few seconds (her husband's diabetes, their lack of health insurance); the candidate nodded through squinted eyes, signed an autograph on a napkin and hugged the woman, who walked away in tears.

I couldn't shake the idea that they were some type of mascot for the city: I'd sometimes be sitting at Katie's, or some other venerable New Orleans restaurant, with a napkin on my lap, merking a crab cake flatbread but thinking about my antler-adorned mistress, the orangey-red crawfish waiting for me, perched atop a pile of her friends at one of the shops on Claiborne.

Like Cal Pep, and unlike nearly every other New York restaurant, Saint Julivert serves gooseneck barnacles when they're available, boiling them with bay leaves and salt and mounding them on a cloth napkin before they cool so that when you twist the wrinkled sheath of skin away from the sweet, edible meat inside there is a good chance somebody in the vicinity will get hit with a squirt of hot barnacle juice.
