i think i will have a problem. you can buy trilobite fossils. it didn't occur to me before, but i found some for sale online today at fossilmall and it's very tempting... they're a little pricey, but only for the fancier ones (um, like those pictured here).

that last one looks like it's formed from some gross soft putty or something.
If you want a trilobite for a wedding present, I'll get you one. this is the sister who bought you a hedgehog, remember.
I wonder if you can buy hedgehog fossils.
[Sr. palentologist Richard]Fortey had a friend who loved the '70s punk band The Sex Pistols and named some ancient trilobite species after Sid Vicious and Johnny Rotten: Sid viciousi and Johnny rotteni.
