Random post

First, because I've been watching the LoTR prequel, Rings of Power, wherein Ents have just made an appearance, plus my concurrent rereading of LoTR ... here's me and (just maybe) an Ent. 

(Yes, I'm selfie-impaired. In my defense, it was very sunny, even in Mirkwood.)

Second, because it amuses me greatly, here's an epically great, authorial-centric, cartoon from Grant Snider (first in a 2014 NYT Sunday Book Review article). Tha cartoon, randomly, showed up today in my FB feed.

That, I suspect, is ample randomness for one day :-)
