things

1. My first thought upon waking was: HOLY SHHHH—that was the best episode of Community ever! A second later I realized I just dreamed it.

2. Sir Larry gave out some old books today. I love that he gave them away instead of selling them. (I got a collection of award-winning short fiction)

3. Funniest one-liner ever in the history of unintended funny one-liners:

Ma’am Sol: I can’t read my own handwriting.

It was during the 2002 Winter Olympics and she skated this number after losing the gold medal she was so desperately aiming for.

Winning is glorious and losing is the hardest thing. But to accept defeat in such a gracious way is just so beautiful to watch.

Lord of the Dads

The Tolkiens had four children: John Francis Reuel Tolkien (17 November 1917 – 22 January 2003), Michael Hilary Reuel Tolkien (22 October 1920 – 27 February 1984), Christopher John Reuel Tolkien (born 21 November 1924) and Priscilla Mary Anne Reuel Tolkien (born 18 June 1929). Tolkien was very devoted to his children and sent them illustrated letters from Father Christmas when they were young. There were more characters added each year, such as the Polar Bear, Father Christmas’s helper, the Snow Man, the gardener, Ilbereth the elf, his secretary, and various other minor characters. The major characters would relate tales of Father Christmas’s battles against goblins who rode on bats and the various pranks committed by the Polar Bear.

Ever wonder what the Sun sounds like?

Asteroseismology records the frequencies which a star pulsates at and uses those frequencies to study the internal structure of the star. Those frequencies can be turned into actual sound. This mp3 is of the Sun’s pulsations. Turn your bass up and have a listen!

This is one of the coolest things I’ve ever heard.
