The lost tales are only worth reading...
if you are in love with the mythologies...They are purley historic in nature and many of the tales are fragments. I like them cause they filled in gaps in the main stories. and helped with my linguistic interests.

Scorch,
That is a pumpkin that I carved this last Halloween. I found a cool template online and thought I would give it a shot. It's two tone; some parts carved through and some parts the skin shaved off. Looked OK in the light but when I put a candle in and put it in my dark laundry room...

Mebbe Tolkien had prognostigative
powers a little lower than Nostradamus. His prophecy of good
and evil foretold the battle between the Repubs vs demos

I caught the 10:30 am show this
morning. I paid$6.25 for a ticket.
$11.25 for a large root beer,large
popcorn and a small bag of chocolate.
The advantage of the early show is
that I could lean over the empty
seats in front of me,stick my feet up,etc.
I guess a lot of people must have drunk coffee as there was a all most a continous traffic to the door.When a peep came back,another
peep would leave.

The morning crowd was pretty quiet. There was some times that

no discussion of the movie until all of us have seen it. but, if you have any questions, ask me in a private email...my knowledge is accessable to all of you...Enjoy!!! Namarie!

Albuquerque had one of the 90 or so theatres showing the LOR three movie marathon. It was one of the last to sell out and we have people from coast to coast in town for it.
