Whoo hoo! I just discovered that I have about 10 new channels on my cable, including the Biography channel, just in time to catch the Biography on Lord of the Rings (which was a new special about all three films, not just RotK). Too late to catch the JRR Tolkien show on Ovation, which I've been wanting to see for a year or so. It'll be on eventually, I'm sure.
To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".
Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".
A discussion of Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. If you're a pervy hobbit fancier, this is the place for you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yeah, that's the one. It'll be back, too, I bet.

move out and draw fire
See, when I go into my little cave, I don't know about stuff like the Biography thing or the Ovation thing, so I don't know what I'm missing, so the crack withdrawal doesn't bother me. Then I find out about it and get the shakes.

Art Crawl!!!
My Viggo Mortensen book came in yesterday -- at the beginning are two little pictures of (I assume) Viggo as a boy.
One a very young Viggo on a goat entitled "Stor Viggo" -- and the other of three young boys on horseback in front of a bunch of herefords where Viggo is called "lille" Viggo.
Are "stor" and "lille" Danish for something like small, little, baby?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
According the the online Danish dictionary I just checked, "lille" means small, and "stor" means big.

Why is he on a goat? Are people allowed to sit on goats? Or are there special Danish riding goats?

See, I am pissed that all the acting was glossed over, but ... I'm happy in the end.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Oh yeah.
