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

billytea, re: proscribed cows for breeding, which would be Highland cows:
These are shaggy long-horned beasts from Scotland with an ornery attitude that says "In the end, there can be only one".

shrift:
Cownor MoocLeod of the Herd MoocLeod?

billytea:
Who, in a climactic battle scene, faces and defeats the Kowgan.

shrift:
I see. The very same highlander mentored by Juan Cowchez Villa-Cowbos Cowmirez.

And Betsy with the topper:
at least there'd be all-leather, all the time.

edited for a variety of reasons, mostly because I'm a git.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Hee. If I may make a suggestion, it'll probably help with the context to include the bit that these are highlander cows.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Um, Jewish Heresy has killed the thread.

It's like the Grinch who stole Christmas, with the Grinch being the first monotheistic religion and Christmas, one of the major holidays of the monotheistic religion with the highest number of believers (I think) being the Natter thread.

Nilly, in Natter, proving once more that she's as funny as she is smart, and she's pretty freaking smart. Also, a verb.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Why I Love Fay, in the Fanfic Thread:

Michele T.: NaNoWriMo is 50K words.

FayJay: Ah. So I'd have hit the target if I'd just written that extra 49,990 words, then? I thought it was only 39,990 I was short.

Betsy in Natter, about 60s music:

Yeah, Teen Angel was a total nitwit. The song should have been called Teen Darwin.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

And there's all those people who seriously love those songs, and get upset if one answers the question, "Where oh where can my baby be?" with, "On the short bus to hell for being stupid."

If I only had a brain...

Nutty: I have to say, existence of books in Middle-Earth notwitstanding, archiving procedures are pretty much of the suck.

They let Gandalf into the Great Minas Tirith Archives without white gloves on.

With a fricken open fire source in his hand.

And let him touch actual historical documents that are 3000 years old (and by rights should have turned to dust the moment he touched them).

And, AND, he had food & drink with him!!

To say nothing of the complete lack of indexing and proper document preservation procedures. I ask you! Denethor, where are your priorities?!

Thanks for all the fish.

In Dude,

Vonnie K:

I have a couple of Tolkien geeks over to my house to watch the DVDs, and we are kind of fixated on finding out which book Aragorn is reading in the hall at Rivendell (when he has the conversion with Boromir re. the shards of Narsil.) We paused the DVD and squinted at the book cover, but we still can't make out what it says. Does anyone know?

Betsy:

"How To Maintain Consistent Stubble", by Don Johnson.

Hecubus:

I don't think Jack and Diane died. I think he grew a mullet, drank too much Schlitz, got a beer belly and and got a crap job at Wal-Mart. Diane had a bad perm, two kids, a nasty divorce from Jack and now she smokes More cigarettes by the carton.

Jilli:

My dad took me to see Labryinth when it first came out. At the end of the movie, he turned to me and said "So if David Bowie appears to you as the Goblin King, I'm assuming you'll give him whatever relatives he asks you for." My dad knows me well.
