beathen, my friends and I were learning Elvish and writing in Elvish script in college twenty*cough* years ago. You are part of a long and proud tradition.
Willow: That's a work ethic! Buffy, you're developing a work ethic! Buffy: Do they make an ointment for that?
'Beneath You'
Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
I actually had a former roommate tell me she was "worried" about me when I could proudly write her name in Elvish.

Writing in Elvish is a vaulable skill. Really.
My first serious boyfriend was very into Tolkien and knew how to write in Elvish. For a birthday or anniversary he gave me a book that he inscrbed with a quote about Beren and (blanking on the name) in Elvish and then translated into English (although I would have picked a more romantic book to put the inscription in it was one of his favorites). It was very romantic and always gave me a thrill.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
okay now I'm recasting the Monkees as Hobbits! Clearly Sam = Mickey Dolenz. What about the others? Um...
Dom = Davy. Elijah = Peter. Billy = Mike.
No, that's not quite right...

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Elijah = Davy. Dom = Mike. Billy = Peter.
My two cents.

The premire of Lost set a record for viewers in Norway. Ok, it's true that most Buffistas live in neighborhoods with more people than all of Norway, but but it's good anyway. From today's Dagbladet newspaper:
638 000 så «Lost». TVNorge satte rekord.
TVNorges markedsandel under «Lost» var ifølge Flemmen «usedvanlig høy» i forhold til normalen. 41,9 prosent av alle over 12 år så premieren. I aldersgruppen 12-44 var på 55,1 prosent.

Punishingly Intricate
Elijah = Davy. Dom = Mike. Billy = Peter.
I think this is right.
