There is something in the way my art teacher says "Shadow" that makes my friend and me crack up. We keep saying, "Is it a Balrog? Made of shadow and flame? Is it?" I guess it's because he says it in a fairly melodramatic way...I guess it's a "have to be there" moment.

Then I said, "You've seen the eye, lidless, wreathed in flame." It was completely an accident to say the last part, but it's just reflex. My art teacher gave me a look, and my friend cracked up. Well, it's not a lidless eye with any flame, as I am doing an enormous drawing of my own eye.
