We're not all writers but everyone here puts up with our drivel. (At least, so far. The anime discussions have apparently gotten on people's nerves, though, so we really try to keep those to a minimum)
Yeah. Let's see. RosieCotton, Overtaxed, Lil'Freeper, Alkhin, Corin Stormhands, TalonDJ, Rose in Rosebear and I all have literary aspirations. Or we like to write crap. Or we have written crap in the past, at least.
The Hobbit Hole is sort of a... mutual admiration and support society. Hang around for a week and you'll figure it out.
Boy...I leave for a few hours and people start a party without me! Welcome to the Hobbit Hole, Dutchman!
So...are you Air Force, then? I was, once upon a time. Been out a few years now, though.
Jen - I've been running around all day and haven't had a chance to read any more of your story, but I will!
I'm roasting that turkey breast. Yes, I'm fully aware I'm likely to be sick of the stuff in the not-too-distant future...but for now, it smells wonderful! Almost done, in time for a kinda late dinner.
And we went to see "The Incredibles" today! I thoroughly enjoyed it, for the most part. Heh...Disney's name just did NOT fit on that movie. I thought it was darned conservative as far as the message and morals went.
Well, I guess I'm gonna commit a little blasphemy, here, but here goes...
Everyone here probably knows what I refer to, when I mention the Rankin-Bass versions of "Hobbit" and "ROTK", right?
Well, I'm of the mind that they were really good - considering that:
A.) They were made during the 70's, with the graphic artists and skills of the time; and
B.) They may have been eclipsed by the current Trilogy films, but they are EXCELLENT for introducing children to the wonder of the Tolkien mythos!
My little 7yo absolutely adores Tolkien now, because I showed him the Rankin-Bass films as an intro - and he's now a devoted fan!
Well, I have been trying out two browsers today ~ Opera and Firefox. Opera is nice, but I am not convinced yet to keep it. Firefox is quiet a bit like Netscape, except that it loads *much* faster.
The Salvation Army never showed up. I called 'em twice and finally got told they ain't commin. See if I EVER try to donate anything to them again.
Since I'm not on a septic system anymore I feel I can put out more crap.
