Who says Popular Science doesn't have a sense of humor...

This is from the Poplular Science article that finabair posted. It deals with Massive, computer program that is used to render the battles in LOTR. They are talking about the battle of Helm's Deep.

In the movie, the Orc army stands before the fortress, pounding spears into the ground. Rain falls, and the darkness is broken only by flashes of lightning reflecting off helmets. The battle begins, and sprawls across the screen until -- when all seems lost -- an unexpected . . . no, we're not telling.

Evil.

The road is paved with them....

I know that I should write more. I always intend to write more.

I intended to write a journal entry telling what a wonderfully normal Thanksgiving I had with my family. But I didn't.

I intended to write a journal entry telling what a wonderful time I had going to see HP with family and friends and Die Another Day with my husband. But I didn't.

I intended to be much further along on my little fantasy story that I've been tossing around in my head. But I'm not.

I intended to write something about my character I have wallowing in a ME RPG here on LJ. But I didn't.

BUT I did manage to write a short piece for the little round robin I joined. Yay, me.

Actually, since this was the first time in over a month I've managed to put words to paper that I didn't immediately disregard as trash, I suppose it could be YAY YAY me. Although I'm not sure such a small effort is so deserving of praise.

But now, since it is 11:30 and I have to be out at my Mom's baking cookies early in the AM, I'm going to go the bed.

Here's hoping that the muse is still with me tomorrow when I sit down to write.
