I haven't been in that thread in ages, so I'm fine w/ closing it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I found this post Kathy A "LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'"." Jan 14, 2005 1:26:56 pm PST which talks about potential ultimate DVD sets. If there's no calendar for new activity, I vote close, but don't archive, so it can be reopened if there's anything that's going to provoke a flurry.

Works for me - are we still looking for seconds, though? Count me, to get the discussion started anyway.

Looks like we have enough seconds -- I'll open Lightbulbs, and Tom, you can kick discussion off.

Because books.
Speaking of threads and closing -- did the revival of Book Club work?
It was not a raging success, no. A couple of us talked about a few Sherlock Holmes stories, but we ran out of steam before we got to The Hound of the Baskervilles. I'd be willing to give it another shot in the arm after the holidays, but I don't know if it's ever going to see a lot of activity.
Unless we all started reading pictorial essays about slash, or something.

Our wings are not tired.
Now I'm feeling all guilty because I was very excited about the Book Club thread and then rarely participated. Bad member. I'll have to go back and resub.

Same here. I wanted to do a graphic novel next, but was waiting until my end-of-the-year-work-craxiness calmed down a bit. But if folks want to close it, I'm not going to object. Just be a little sad.
