Ok, go to your inbox and put a check in the box beside stream. Then go up above and click the little red truck icon that says "deliver".

You'll have three options. Stream, download and bulk download. Underneath these three options is a "Download urls" box. Right click on "fotrextended" and select "Save target as" and it'll download it where ever you want it.

I found something neat at the public library today!! It is the unabridged version of TT on 12 Audio cassettes!! We have a long drive ahead of us so I'll be able to listen to it in the van. And the Windstar had a Personal Audio System with two headphone jacks, so I can play it in the van's tape player and my daughter and I can listen at the same time! I plan to put it in as soon as we hit the road tomorrow at midnight!! I plan to do the first 4 or 5 hours of driving, so it will be a great thing to keep me awake! I did this a couple of years ago, listening to "The Screwtape Letters" and Thomas Hardy's "Return of the Native". By the time we gat back, I'll be able to take part in the TT discussion!

The narrator is Ron Inglis and he's done the narration for the entire trilogy! Thisis not the dramatization that Ian Holm starred in. I wanted to hear the ENTIRE thing, not just parts of it!

Yes, I've heard great things about the Inglis one. I got Matthew the Ian Holm one, (he's only six, after all...LOL), but I intend to get him the Inglis one eventually. They sell the entire trilogy at the bookstore for about a $100 I think.

I have considered reading the trilogy to Matthew and simply recording myself reading it. What a daunting task! But then he would have his mother reading her favorite book to him for the rest of his days.

Ok, now really...I'm going to bed!

Now THAT is a wonderful idea. It wouldn't do for me to try that though. Somehow I don't think Tolkien's quasi British countryside tale would sound too good coming from this native Mississippian! Though I must admit, I do a fair job on the Redwall tales!
