Eldorion, I certainly hope you're taking my seriousness seriously. You see, we Tolkien Fundamentalists are serious folk, far more serious than Liberals, Heathens, Purists and the rest of that ilk. In fact, the more serious we are the sillier we seem to others! It's an irony that the Truly Pure must live with!

I hope the above makes everything clear.

Odo, Stop... ...my spleen can't take anymore. You don't want me to pee all over myself and electrocute myself with my wet laptop do you?

(Though come to think of it, that could be a Fundie Terror tactic )

Fundie Terror! That's a good idea GB (at least, coming from a Tolkien Heathen, that is). Does anyone remember that skit of Monty Python's about the Lethal Joke that the Brits inflicted on the Germans? I wonder if a Tolkien Fundamentalist might not use such a Weapon? It's difficult to imagine any kind of Fundamentalist (deliberately) coming out with anything funny, though. And you would have to be pretty careful about how you went about making a weapon like that too. (Joke resistant gloves, perhaps?) And would any kind of Fundamentalist know it was a joke anyway?

I've had a revelation (of sorts). Let's put Old Man Willow, Tom Bombadil and The Barrow-wights in The Hobbit Movie! Very PJ, I think! Those scenes might fit well in The Hobbit especially 'feel-wise', and it would be in keeping with the LOTR movie-making mentality .
