It's the Monkees' 40th anniversary, and we've captured Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, a terrorist bigwig with ties to both Iran and al Qaeda.

Now, if I can just get my Old English homework done....

Squee!

Guess what I just found in my Old English book?

Eala earendel, engla beorhtast
ofer middangeard monnum sended....

It's the beginning of an Advent lyric, but STILL!
(For you non-Tolkien bods out there, this is where Himself found the word 'earendel,' which became the name Earendil. The lines say, "Hail morning star [Earendil], brightest of angels / over Middle-earth sent unto men.")

Now to see whether any of the other Tolkienisti in the class pick up on it....
