71/100 IMDB User Believes Tolkien Ripped Off Harry Potter (share)

Link up and Share

This one was passed around the yahoo lists today and I am compelled to share this link in which:

IMDB user believes LOTR ripped off Harry Potter

For Article:

Just read the whole thing. Business Insider handles it really well and with humor. Just no. I was laughing as I read this. Amazing! The original post on IMDB got taken down. I think the debate got pretty heated. LOL. The post was likely a troll, based on comments so there is that. If it was legit then that is something too.

Anyhoo. Worth posting for the culture vulture.

Great Mountains of the World - Mt. Rainier

Here is an article sent to me by

khylea on Mt Rainier - one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. I have spent some time there hiking and walking. Truly wondrous and beautiful place. Take a look at this 10 part article if you are interested in mountains and national parks.

A birthday of a different kind...

It is the 40th anniversary of, wait for it...

THE CUBICLE!

Here is a link to an NPR radio snippet on it. Cubicles were originally called ACTION OFFICES...har. The guy who invented them proved regretful and termed the later business trends..."monolithic insanity". Har.

So have a listen and happy birthday to the cubicle. Woo. *toots party horn*

The joys of independence...

Of another sort...the joys of being single. I have often thought this and this article (given to me by

khylea on IM) really encapsulates some of the joys of singlehood. You can do your own thing.

Have a read. For marrieds and singles alike. Really...I do get lonely sometimes but I am not desperate for someone to share my space with. I love living alone.

So Happy Independence Day to all the single folks out there.

Cheers.

Hmmm....

We have a good staff paper on campus and they did an article on mental illness. It is still stigmatized. I know people who suffer from bipolar and forms of depression. It is a shame that the world does not recognize that these are "illnesses" like any other...It really is a factor of brain chemistry.

( Article reposted from Uni paper... )

Food for thought...
