you know you know your team mates too well when you can tell who’s running behind you just by their breathing

Back when I was the manager for the cross country team, I used to be able to pick out my girls just by the way their ponytails swished.

At a conference, Stephanie Meyer said: “The God of Writing sent me to earth to show people how to write.” When J.K Rowling heard, she looked at the ground, puzzled, and then said, “I didn’t send anyone.”

Puzzlewood is an ancient woodland site, near Coleford in the Forest of DeanGloucestershireEngland. The site, covering 14 acres, shows evidence of open cast iron ore mining dating from the Roman period, and possibly earlier.

In 1848 some workmen, after moving a block of stone in the woods, found a small cavity in the rocks. In this cavity, hidden away, were three earthenware jars containing over 3,000 Roman coins. No-one knows why the coins were hidden away in the cliff face nor by whom.

J. R. R. Tolkien, a frequent visitor to the Forest of Dean, may have visited Puzzlewood, and many believe Puzzlewood was the inspiration for the fabled forests of Middle-earth, such as the Old ForestMirkwoodFangorn or Lothlórien contained within The Lord of the RingsJ.K Rowling is also said to have visited Puzzlewood, and it may have been this that influenced her idea of The Forbidden Forest in the Harry Potter books.

THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE HAS BEGUN

WERE ALL FUCKING DONE FOR

As horrifying as this would be, I can find nothing on the internet regarding “LQP-79”, aside from Yahoo Answers of people asking if it’s real, youtube video responses to this “news article”, and a brief article from zombieapocalypseacademy.org.

It also turns up no results on Google News.

I think we can all take a breather, people. c:

Lava tubes are pretty cool. Wikipedia says, “Lava tubes are natural conduits through which lava travels beneath the surface of a lava flow, expelled by a volcano during an eruption. They can be actively draining lava from a source, or can be extinct, meaning the lava flow has ceased and the rock has cooled and left a long, cave-like channel.” In other words, sometimes the exterior of a lava flow hardens while the inside is still molten, allowing the lava to move out of the hardened tube, creating a cave.

Check out Ape Cave, a lava tube south of Mount St. Helens in Washington that is 1900 years old. There are two entrances to this 13,042 feet (3,975 m) long tube. Choose your entrance carefully!

I LOVE lava tubes!  I’ve got a whole system of them in one of my novels!  They’re like caves (which I love) but with LAVA (which I really love).  And they have lava stalactites, which are like regular stalactites but better because they’re made of lava!

These are “helictites”, that is, proof that when it comes to forming stalactites lava looks at limestone drips in normal caves and says “To hell with that!  I’m lava; I do what I want!”

These are called shark teeth stalactites, because everything about lava needs to reminds you that it can destroy you with ease.

And these bulgy things are called Blades.  Names like Shark Teeth and Blades are evidence that lava tubes are basically like a normal cave only hardcore.  

Speaking of hardcore, you know what most caves don’t have?  Fiery death pits.


This is called a skylight, which isn’t exactly the most hardcore of names, but it’s still pretty cool.  This is an active tube, where the roof has crumbled in and opened up a skylight so you can look down and see the lava streaming by underneath. 

(wait is it lava or magma in this case?  Because it’s been expelled from the earth but is still underground.  oh god I don’t know.)

Here’s a more clear shot of a skylight:

They’re like little holes that pockmark the shiny surface of the pahoehoe flows (oh gosh I’ll rant about the difference between pahoehoe lava and a’a lava some other day).  But you don’t have to worry about accidentally tripping into one, because super hot temperatures radiate out of them like the earth’s space heaters.

Ok, that’s all for today.  As you can see, I really love lava and everything to do with it!  Most of the pictures I posted are from Volcano National Park in Hawaii, and I found them on this awesome informative website that you can visit too in case you share my passion for really hot rocks.  http://www.goodearthgraphics.com/virtual_tube/virtube.html
