I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

Harmony ,'Conviction (1)'


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.

Oh, are you sure "philistines" didn't pop up in the back of your mind somewhere?

I have to admit it skipped through mine...although more at the times the audience applauded in inappropriate places, but whatev. They applauded, which was nice. Standing ovation, even, which was another thing I'd forgotten about Americans; they seem to give standing o's for everything.

The young boy soloist was pretty good, and the mezzo-soprano was awesome.

OK, the few photos I was able to sneakily take of the concert start here: [link]

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Those pictures gave me chills, Raq. The weight of the history in that place is just incredible.

It was really cool.

Does this mean we can have the Hobbit?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I think the Hobbit rights are separate from the LotR rights. So nothing has changed on that front, unfortunately.

I saw this press release on my Wizard News email and was at first very excited, but reading more carefully, I realized that they are releasing the COMPLETE soundtrack of FoTR only -- 4 disks of just FoTR. I guess next year: TTT and in 07: RotK.

Sigh.

RotK was on Encore today and will be again tonight at 9 Central.

According to the imdb it's Viggo's 47th birthday today. Hippo birdies, Strider!

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Saw a commercial for the new Night Stalker last night during Lost. Every time Stuart Townsend showed up on screen, I automatically compare his face to Viggo's and bless PJ's wisdom in ditching ST for the unknown (to him) Viggo.
