Tonight I’ll be spreading the Gospel of Tolkien and screening The Fellowship of the Ring for a friend of mine who has never seen it. I have the extended version so I hope he’s ready to sit for 3+ hours. As is my custom around this time of year, I’m re-reading the final book in the trilogy in preparation for the next movie. I’m betting that Peter Jackson will finally get his Oscar for this one, unless something goes horribly wrong. It’s interesting to read the books again. I think I was eleven or twelve the last time and a lot of the language went over my head at the time.
I like to give attention to new blogs whenever possible, so check out the Australian-based ad lib. It’s run by a young woman who is both funny and articulate. Go give her some love.

Wow, thanks! Much appreciated.
I love Frodo Baggins as an outstanding character of LOTR.
