The Lord of the Rings Symphony people told us that no matter where the tour went, there was always someone in the local chorus who knew how to pronounce the Elvish.
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

My professional dealings with the Tolkien estate have led me to the same conclusion, though I would probably have said "A wacky ASSHAT."
(squints) I'm...sorry you had to do that. The tangles around that legacy rival the IRS in complexity and nonsense.
One of (our - the Reasons' and mine) co-workers at WotC was Dr. John Ratcliff - who is a Tolkien scholar (one of the few people I'll *admit* is geekier on this subject than I am) and has written books about Tolkien, the legendarium, and the movies. His tales of wending through the Tolkien Estate are horrific. Ew.

OK, if Jaba was marooned on present-day Earth, what job would he take?
Have you seen Rush lately?

I think I'm looking for the straight version of SH for myself.Hell, I'm wishing SH was female.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I was part of the early '70s Tolkien obsession and read LoftR a couple of times in my teens.
I'm so used to seeing LotR that I read this as, "Lord of the Fucking Rings".

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What was it? "Lord of the Cock-rings"?

I don't recall much of the story line, just that Misty Mundae was pretty yummy. Gotta love Cinemax.

That's not going to last long around here.
