I thought there was something wrong with your sound... you haven't watched it since?

Sound went down, monitor went down, modem went down and the PC was in the shop. I did get a couple of chances to see it between catching up at work! I REALLLLY need to get a new system!

They didn't have to buy supplies, food, anything!

The last time they bought something was at Butterbur's. I reckon the rest of it was "for the war effort."

Yeah - sounds like you have gotten all the useful life you are gonna get out of your system... I thought the upgrade already happened thought... guess that was just the monitor?

Not too many 7-11's on their route, as I remember.

the only one who was rumored to be going from Elrond's household was Arwen

That's right! And now she's rumored to turn up at the Battle of Helm's Deep... she just wants to worm her way into every aspect of the series, doesn't she?

At least we know she won't have a big rifle.

She won't have a big rifle, will she?

You did? - You are getting the combo drive AND the DVD player? Wow...

Oh - I looked on my DVD player, it is an S video out only ... so what does that do for me? - Could I play DVDs onto my machine? - perhaps record them?

Hardware is not my strong suit.

LOL! - When I first read your post, I read it as...

"At least we know she won't have a big ruffle. She won't have a big ruffle will she?"

Which is just as funny.

Yes, but I've also read Silmarillion 9 times, Book of Lost Tales thrice, Unfinished Tales at least a half dozen times, and I wrote my term paper mainly on LotR and Tolkien's essay on Beowulf. Top that!

You are in the running for most obsessed, but I would argue that you are too diversified... you read all kinds of stuff...

2J and I, on the other hand, aren't into all kinds of different fantasy novels, this is the only one. It is the singularity of purpose that makes us different.
