People, I can revert to my native Scottish accent any time you want.
Just as well I don't find Scottish accents sexy myself, really, or I'd never get anything done.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.
Host ,'Why We Fight'
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.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
(Morgoth's Ring was Arda (the Earth) itself, meaning that Mogoth had his power tied to the physical world).
Thanks Jeff.
Oh - speaking of hobbit obsessiveness. I forgot to mention that there is already an unoffical fan site for the new JJ Abrams tv series Lost that Dom will be in. It's got a very unfortunate background color. Shield your eyes and see it here if you like.
It was amusing to watch on livejournal--as soon as it was announced, there were like thirty posts on my friendslist, all about Lost and how to support Lost and ooh, DomDomDom!

It looks like RotK is hitting the bargain theaters tomorrow, so if you've been wanting to see it again, now's your chance! I've got a bargain theater just down the street from work and the second showing of the day is at 5:15--perfect timing!

Really? As if you weren't foamy enough.

It's a good damage, no?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
So The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie is just a total lovefest, no?
(I mean, it is for me, but for the snotty parts and the choral singing, more than for the accent by itself.)

Well...Clare Groghan and Fiona have the added virtue of being very cute Scots.

Damn you Aimee and your connections!
Also, so people are excited about Lost and it's DM-ness -- but what about that Sci Fi thing with Sean Astin? Is there no love for that?
