I've tried to be a racist over the years but It just gets harder and harder. Here lately I Am  lucky to just walk across the room. Hence I think I come pretty close to a walkest. Mostly a napper with a specialty in snackatude.

C'mon Steve.  Quark's don't come by themselves!  (Actually they prefer three-ways, for Neutrons it's one Up to two Downs, one Charm to two Stranges and, obviously out of town at the time of your picture, one Top to two Bottoms.  For Protons, it's the other way around!)
 
Therefore, I have moved your work forward and discovered the missing Quark who I have named "Norm." 
 
Oh yeah, and quarks combine to make Hadrons (Neutrons, Protons, etc.).  Only at this point will they party at the Atom Disco (where you also see a lot of Leptons being wallflowers and circling way outside those crazy Hadrons in the middle).

Next week we can discuss anti-quarks and the Higgs-Boson particle.

Is it from the well-known DFS Submarine Furniture Sale strapline;  'Sonar, yet Sofar?'

Pfft, that's easy.
 
Before starting Twelve Tone Systems, Greg Hendershot owned an embroiderying company specialising in letters of the alphabet between 'Q' and 'S'.
 
Imagine the scene inside his shop one day just after elevenses:
 
Greg: Hello sir, can I help you?
 
Customer: Yes. I'd like a letter embroidered onto this neckerchief that belongs to a lady friend of mine of the opposite sex.
 
Greg: Certainly my good man, what's her name?
 
Customer: Felicity.
 
Greg: Oh dear. I'm sorry sir, but we can't possibly embroider an 'F'.
 
Customer: How come me old matey?
 
Greg: I had to sack the bloke who does the 'F's for swearing on the loom. What, pray tell, is her surname - we could use that could we not?
 
Customer: Ah yes, I hadn't thought of that. Her surname is 'Wigglesworth'.
 
Greg: Oh bugger. Once again I'm sorry sir, but we can't embroider a 'W' either. I had to sack the 'W' embroiderer for moonlighting down at the local Cheapo-W Embroidery Boutique in lower Boston.
 
Customer: Oh. How about you embroider an 'M' instead then. Just turn the neckerchief upside down and then the 'M' will look just like a 'W'.
 
Greg: Good idea sir!
 
Customer: So you'll do it then?
 
Greg: No, sorry sir. The chap who does the 'M's is off work with leprosy of the bell-end and varicose penis.
 
Customer: So..... what letters can you embroider?
 
Greg: Well, I do the letter 'R'. It's my speciality.
 
Customer: That's lucky. My lady friend's nickname is 'Roger'. I'll take it!
 
Greg: Excellent sir. I hope you'll be very happy with your sewn 'R'.

Pfft.......
 
Diagrams please.
 
It's just meaningless drivel without proper diagrams.

Hey, I found that Quark you were looking for.
 

 
I told him you'd pay his cab fare.
