Than longen folk to go on pilgrimages! Happy April.

adrianeq:

 WHAN that Aprille with his shoures soote 1

The droghte 2 of Marche hath perced to the roote,

And bathed every veyne in swich 3 licour,

Of which vertu engendred is the flour;

Whan Zephirus eek with his swete breeth

   5Inspired hath in every holt 4 and heeth

The tendre croppes, 5 and the yonge sonne

Hath in the Ram his halfe cours y-ronne, 6

And smale fowles maken melodye,

That slepen al the night with open ye,

   10(So priketh hem nature in hir corages: 7

Than longen folk to goon on pilgrimages,

And palmers for to seken straunge strondes, 

8To ferne halwes, 9 couthe 10 in sondry londes;

And specially, from every shires ende

15Of Engelond, to Caunterbury they wende,

The holy blisful martir for to seke,

That hem hath holpen, whan that they were seke.

We had to memorize this passage in my senior year AP English class.  The first line is all I can still instantly recall.

Opening Sequence of Nickelodeon’s Doug (1991-1994)

My sister uses the theme music from this show as the ringtone for my calls.

Back in high school, I once had a faux argument with a friend in computer class about who had the biggest crush on Michael Stipe.

Although I no longer feel so strongly about Stipe or REM, I can definitely see where Ben’s coming from here.

vintageblackglamour: Happy 82nd Birthday to James Earl Jones! Mr. Jones, who is almost as handsome as his father, Robert Earl Jones (!), was born 82 years ago today in Arkabutla, Mississippi! This photo was taken on May 29, 1961 by Carl Van Vechten. Anyone else remember Long Ago and Far Away? That’s how I was first introduced to Mr. Jones.
