So much for "The Hobbit"

Studio chief blacklists "Rings"-leader Jackson

[link]

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - An escalation in the war of words between New Line co-chairman Bob Shaye and "Lord of the Rings" filmmaker Peter Jackson appears to be nixing any possible reconciliation between the two -- or any chance that Jackson will direct the trilogy's prequel, "The Hobbit."

Um, any of you club gals ever bought a ring? There's one I quite like, but it doesn't seem to be asking for size info. Is it gonna come up after payment page, or would I be risking a ring that won't fit my not-precisely-svelte digits?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

One of the ring links I clicked on specified that it only came in some particular size. Disremember where though, or which size.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

They should say what size it is on the info sheet. Is it the smoky quartz? That one's a 6. They only offer 1 size at a time.

(The mother of pearl one is listed at ~7.5)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I bought earrings. I am weak, and they were pretty.

Trillian-cut garnet. I think I may go ahead and risk it, because my lovely friend H lusts for red stones in silver settings, so if it doesn't fit me, it will probably look great on her long, slender fingers. And she's worth the $6 risk. (I'm already past the info page and it's timed out by now, so if I go back I'm sure I'll lose it).

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So here are the ten largest urban areas in the European Union (Moscow would be #1 if if were included)

1 Paris, France 10,136,000
2 London, United Kingdom 8,505,000
3 Madrid, Spain 5,561,748
4 Ruhr area, Germany 5,317,565
5 Barcelona, Spain 5,082,126
6 Milan, Italy 4,282,000
7 Berlin, Germany 3,675,000
8 Upper Silesian Metropolitan Area, Poland 3,487,000
9 Rotterdam-The Hague, Netherlands 3,345,000
10 Athens, Greece 3,247,000

I had never heard of the Ruhr area before. Apparently it's like 12 German industrial cities that slowly grew together. I don't know much about the Upper Silesian area either.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Trillian-cut garnet.

That one was a size 5.

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

Upper Silesian Metropolitan Area, Poland

The Lower Silesian Metropolitan Area is so much cooler....

I'm pretty sure even my pinky's about a 7. Ah, well. Guess H is in for some extra sparkle for her b-day next month.
