Today I learned what Charlie Chaplin's voice sounded like.
I'd only seen him in clips from silent movies. If you want the non-Melodysheep version, here it is.

Today I learned that one of my oldest friends is also a fan of How It Should Have Ended. It's a small web after all.

Malcolm McDowell is Alexander Siddig's uncle!
At least Cracked says so. And when have they ever made a factual error?

I've long been a fan of the joke "If a tree falls on a mime in the forest, does anybody care?" Well, today I discovered that this comes from the comic strip The Far Side. I was and still am a fan of the comic, but the mime strip isn't quite as immediately "That's from the Far Side!"-memetic as other classics like the Thagomizer, or the idiot pushing on a pull door, or Cow Tools, or so forth.

Not really amazing, but I wanted to drop by and say that the Arrowverse is now part of the Westphall Multiverse. I'm glad that people are still adding shows. Yes, according to strict logic the whole thing is unwieldy, self-contradictory, and all-around-impossible, but I still have fun with the idea.

Happy National Science Fiction Day!
I only learned today that Isaac Asimov's birthday of January 2nd is National Science Fiction Day. I confess to minimal knowledge of "hard" scifi fiction. I own a book of time travel stories, and have read a bit here and there elsewhere, but can hardly call myself a serious fan of the genre. My fandom of Asimov comes from his nonfiction, especially his science essays. (P.S. My boxes upon boxes of Star Trek novels really don't qualify has "hard" scifi, do they?)
