Though doubtless it'll be May 21 by the time I submit, because I was busy getting the aforementioned Huck Finn essay in on time. For the same reason, I'm not going to comment much on the song: "Angel in the Dark" by Jade Redd. It's spooky. And pretty. Enough said.

Yesterday's It's Ac Fact
Yargh. I forgot to post an It's Ac fact of the day yesterday! So here it is:
The author Nathaniel Hawthorne, known for such works as The Scarlet Letter, The House of The Seven Gables, and The Blythesdale Romance was a friend to president Franklin Pierce. Now, if any of you can say which number president Pierce was and what years he was in office, without using Wikipedia, I will present you an invisible cookie! Oh, and you should very definitely come to It's Academic on Tuesday.
(Ozymandias is not allowed to answer, btw.)
