Well the spinoffs have begun!

Hmm, interesting. Nice website, anyway.

Feels like fan-fiction. Or maybe gaming fiction.

Not to worry Bear, I got most of that from the trailer...

Since I don't like spoilers, I don't like posting them either... glad I didn't. :)

I'd advise against following the link Rocko posted though, at least until after you've seen the movie, as it pretty much picks apart every fault in the film.

Unless you don't plan to see the movie...

Any opinions, hobbitses, dwarves, Beornings, Elves, Men of Gondor?

If it's still at Blockbuster after ROTK, I'll consider it. I've got to many undependent (thank you Jesse Jackson) films to watch right now...

That's the feeling I got. Doesn't sound like it has deep depth.

Good thing this is Corin's off-diet day. :)

Corin wants sausages and eggses.

And the darn "lose up to 10 lbs. diet only lost me seven.

Hope everyone has a better day than the one I'm going to have.

Just watch out for exploding orange juices...

I wonder if a lot of their money/time/effort went into producing the website... trying to lure big time investors.

There I go being cynical again.

That's good advice, thank you. I usually go one better and just avoid orange juice entirely.

I lead a boring life.

Thanks for the breakfast and especially the espresso!

I need it!

Thank you also for the walk down memory lane! - I unfortunately cannot pull out my old albums... I lost them somewhere. There is a box with a few hundred tapes in it that got lost in a move, or in storage somewhere... bummer.

Hullo! - Good Morning!

Good morning all,

Thanks for the info, Overtaxed. That means any images on my computer have to go through Paint to be converted to jpegs, I guess, before I upload them to a webhosting site, if I can find one.

That "Middle Earth" type movie strikes me as just plain weird. The fact that they're conciously copying Tolkien to lure fans is maybe disturbing.

Hey Corin, I don't think eggs and sausages, at least, are particularly fattening. The orange juice sounds a little dangerous, though.

Good morning Sam!

You may want to check with your ISP, as ISPs will often, as part of their service, provide a little webhosting space for just this purpose (usually 5 or 10 MB). If they provide the space, you'll need to check with them to find out how to upload your images to it.

That is right. Bear is just a water-man.

No juice, no ale, no coffee, no tea. Just water thank you!

I think you're right. It's the biscuits and gravy you have to have to go with them...

I'm actually combining parts of several diets to sort of make my own new healthy eating plan. There's the water2cure diet where you take half your body weight and drink that much in water, then there's sugarbusters and Atkins. So, I'm drinking lots of water (always good) and limiting the refined sugars and flours.

Mine does... I even have a page... here... click it

Trouble is, I can't figure out what to do with it. There are instructions about getting a FTP software, I did that, but I just sit and stare at it! - It's greek.
