50 years ago—on June 28, 1975—Rod Serling dies.
"I just want them to remember me 100 years from now. I don’t care that they’re not able to quote a single line that I’ve written. But just that they can say, 'Oh, he was a writer.' That’s sufficiently an honored position for me.”

![The Kalevala [ˈkɑlɛʋɑlɑ] is an epic poem compiled by Elias Lönnrot in the 19th century based on Finnish mythology passed down orally. It is considered the Finnish national epic and thus one of the most important literary works in the Finnish language. The Kalevala contributed significantly to the development of Finnish national consciousness and has had an impact beyond Finland. The first version of the work was published in 1835. The title is derived from Kaleva, the name of the forefather of the celebrated hero, and means something like "the land of Kaleva". The standard text of the Kalevala consists of 22,795 verses, presented in fifty cantos. The Kalevala is a compilation of various traditions and presents a broad spectrum of heroic sagas and myths. The main narrative thread initially concerns the courting of the daughter of Louhi, the ruler of the Northland (Pohjola), and is embedded in a conflict between the people of Kalevala and those of Pohjola over the Sampo, a mythical object that promises prosperity to its owner. Pohjola can be identified with parts of Lapland. Various interpretations have been proposed for the Sampo, a magical device that produces gold, grain, and salt. There are also several other storylines, for example the legend of Kullervo, who unknowingly seduces his own sister, or the Christian legend of Marjatta, the Virgin Mary. The traditions in the Kalevala also include a myth about the creation of the earth and other creation myths, such as that of iron. Väinämöinen Attaching the Strings to His Kantele (1851) by the Swede Johan Blackstadius is the first Kalevala painting. R. W. Ekman, the leading Finnish artist of his time, subsequently explored the subject.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:jnehqmsinao6acjamza3gdii/bafkreidlij2kg5scppe7v5bbp5nqsbkyrrzrxo5ecpjln7k7wxygtepkwa@jpeg)

The older I get, the more likely it is that I will quit a bad series or movie mid-scene.
