The Hall of Fire

Wiki has long since fascinated me, being the very visible front of a kind of open source movement. I have often thought of adding stuff, editing etc but never got around to it. Interestingly, I always assumed it was well, people , who did it - I am a bit taken aback to know that Fox News has been ed...

I should brush up on my Sanskrit - difficult to beat that. HA!!
HA-HA-HA.

Okay, I'll stop.

And I just finished Terry Pratchett's "Wintersmith"

Why would I say that? I don't know... sometimes stuff just spills out.

Of course, I want to see the pics.

Well, can we discuss it here?

Ah... makes sense now. Thanks for the explanations.

And Cem, take Prim's advice seriously... she can get quite annoyed when people don't "obey" her.

ttbk thats a snake in your sig pic??

I ain't flyin' on no A380, I can tell you that. Give me the dear old 747 any time, even though many of them are ancient. Every pilot I know of thinks the 747 is the best plane ever built with the possible exception of the DC3. But these pilots have not flown the A380, have they? So you can't conclu...

Reminds me of the time when the Indian TV started broad casting the parliament proceedings. While in the beginning we were shocked to see people actually throwing stuff in the well... after a few days there was better stuff on TV to see. I think the Cricket season had started.

Oh thats' lovely... I've had around 3-4 Tolkien calendars, all supplied by a dear friend in NZ (since they never reached India). But she could not get me on post ROTK. Am glad to see I'll have one again.

Welcome Narmical - interesting name. Would you like to tell us about it?

And a welcome to TOR too.

Yeah, a hoopy frood.

Wow. Am gonna get onto this as soon as I get back to PA. Thanks Imp,

I just heard my own neck cracking - this is contagious stuff.

Then why have the Nazgûl getting as close to Frodo at all on Weathertop?

I think I would try it - in fact I had planned to start reading the Bhagavad Gita and post it bit by bit here as I read it for open discussion. I just never got around to it in the summer. But, I don't see whats different about this forum and what we have here? Except that its probably a more touchy...

These are lovely, Sun. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry to be so clueless - what's "the final tally"???

Pearl Jam, Wishlist...
