The Hall of Fire

Listening to it now.

I like it. But I would never have guessed that that was David Bowie.

Mr. Ath is a lucky man.

Al, I am definitely up for that. I'm glad that you put it as "of some of the more interesting sections of the History of Middle Earth." I think that an attempt to do a linear study of the full ten volumes, in order, would bog down quickly. I'm much more interested in taking discrete sectio...

Sassy, its somewhere in Colorado. I don't know where.

That picture is SO Viggo. And again I mean that in the best possible sense.

Lovely post, Monika.

Welcome, Alandriel!

I've missed you greatly.

I had a long post eaten last night. :x I'm going to try to recapture a piece of it. The Shibboleth is a symbol of language as a divider. But language is how we communicate with each other, one way we bridge the gap. I really think there is something ... dismaying ... about language also being someth...

I too hope it will flourish here. Unfortunately, I won't be able to feed it any more here as there, not out of lack of interest but from lack of knowledge, but I will continue to read it regularly as I find it fascinating.

Eru, that picture is heartbreakingly lovely. And I mean that in the best possible sense.


Good Morning Starshine, by Greg Summers

Thanks, Al.

Welcome, hal! I'm glad you could make it. I mean that

Welcome, Narya! Welcome syl! Welcome Hunter!

Scirocco, I have heard much about you. I am greatly looking forward to discuss "things" with you.

Welcome Lord M. So glad you are here.

Welcome to my old friend Ang as well!!!!!11

Welcome, Mrs. Whistler! Thank you for lending us your husband. I promise we will return him, only partly used.

I think our Newest Members are being properly greeted, but in case any are (like me) of the hops and barley persuasion, I brought a friend along to help out:

Ath, it is one of the mysteries of life. The great songs are separated by a minute or so of strange Flintstones dialogue about their trip to New Rock City for Christmas. Tres bizarre! But the songs are great. I share your wonder about the Bing Crosby/David Bowie duet. I can't imagine it, but I still...

Thanks for sharing that, sf. I suspect that most of the people that liked LOTR will like Kong, and that most of the people that were put off by Jackson's excesses in those films will be even more put off by them here. I for one am greatly looking for to it. I am quite curious about the music, and ho...

Even I have a favorite Christmas Album: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y60/Voronwe_the_Faithful/0c_1.jpg Jingle Bells (Smokey Robinson & the Miracles) Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (Diana Ross & Supremes) Frosty the Snowman (Jackson 5) Silent Night (The Temptations) The Little Drummer Boy...

Faramond, that's beautiful.

Alas, this is not a gift that I share. But I would also love to see more nature poetry, in English or in other languages.

Hey satch! Hey again duffster.

Astonishing, yes. And beautiful.

To be honest, I don't know where that picture is from. I Googled it so fast, I didn't even stop to see. Maybe I'll try to figure it out later.
