It's JRR Tolkien's birthday. I love LOTR, and I re-read it every few years just to see what changes in terms of my perspective.  I happened across an article that brought up one of the stranger characters from the books: Tom Bombadil, and hit this quote:

Old Tom Bombadil is a merry fellow,

Bright blue his jacket is, and his boots are yellow.

None has ever caught him yet, for Tom, he is the master:

His songs are stronger songs, and his feet are faster.

Son of a bitch...
