Fun fact for the day

Apparently at Kalamazoo (where the university holds a huge annual medieval studies conference) there's a group that gives mock papers. One year they wrote and presented a paper examining the time when Dante went to Ireland. "Apparently" while he was there, he invented limericks! Hahahahaha.

Now I have a new goal in life: write one of those papers. Maybe I'll pretend to discover new documents proving that Chaucer's cat allergy was the inspiration for the Canterbury Tales. Oh, and he went to Ireland too. To see Dante.

ETA: For Lord of the Rings fans, especially people who've read the books as well as seen the movies, here is LOTR Breadbox, a parody of all three films.  Bwahaha, genius.

links, random-ness
