The benefit of being a professor is that, cloistered in the ivory tower and free of everyday concerns, one has time to step back and think deeply about big questions. 😐

Ewan McGregor, Liam Neeson, Hayden Christensen, and Laura Dern would ruin takes because they couldn’t help mimicking the ‘zhhjummmm’ of lightsabers and the ‘pew pew’ of blasters while filming various episodes of Star Wars.

In 2000, Mattel sued MCA, the recording company of the band Aqua, over the song ‘Barbie Girl’ and the use of a shade of pink, trademarked by Mattel. MCA sued Mattel for calling them a ‘bank robber’.
The judge dismissed both cases concluding, ‘The parties are advised to chill’.
Interesting.

Oops -- apparently asking for a "two-month" calendar gives you a whole year, two months per page.
Planning your semester (holidays, exams, topics, etc.)? This is awfully handy. https://print-a-calendar.com/
