Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

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, I really didn't need to say that twice so instead, I'll post this link to a piece about Alatriste, Viggo Mortensen's next movie.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I can't get to your link, Dana. I get a 404 for another domain.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
