I don't want to be either version of Boromir! But Beregond is pretty obscure... no deal!

LOL! Well, like I tell my kids, it never hurts to ask. ;^)

I think I'll take the test again when I get home, maybe if I'm on a computer with a different cookie I'll get someone different. If I answer right maybe I can get Treebeard. ;^)

Dang...

There is another model I like that uses the Johari Window for showing your knowledge...

I - Things you know you know

II - Things you don't know you know

III - Things you know you don't know

IV - Things you don't even know you don't know

In this case, IV is the pane that you hope is not larger than the others!

How would I know how much I don't know I know? And if I don't know something about myself, and nobody else does either, does it even exist?

Sorry if I put you off, Mr. Sulla was not a sweetheart, and I was working on the assumption you were Sauron and Saruman after all!

When working on logic, I prefer Venn Diagrams myself.

Because knowing that there are things you don't know is important, and always be aware that there are things you don't even know you don't know... at least yet. For example... I know that I am not a doctor and do not know medicine. Which is different than not even knowing there are doctors.

There are things you do not know about yourself that others don't know either... this could be an as-yet-untapped strength or weakness that has yet to display itself to either you, or others observing you.

I saw that, and thought that was no way to be talking to our father. No wonder he likes me best.

I have the result of a Freeped poll which says that 99.44% of all readers of LOTR think that Faramir was a better guy than Boromir. The other 0.56% think that Sauron was a better guy than Boromir.

Hmmm....maybe Aragorn wouldn't be too bad. Kicking orc and Nazgul butt should be fun.But I'm not too crazy about being called "Elfstone."

I never believe polls...

On my way out the door! - See you all in a few hours from the safety of my hobbit hole!

Well, I'd say I'm in the majority, then, since Boromir is at least marginally better than Sauron. That was a joke, carton and other Boromir defenders please don't kill me.
Hey, that proves I can't be Denethor, since I like Faramir more!

Awww, poor Boromir...

Would it help if I said I forgive you for trying to take the ring from me?

Your pal,

Good Morning!

Look at what I found this morning: Rabbit Meat. They don't list their distributors. I wonder if it's worth it to pay $25.00 shipping for dressed coneys.

Well...I don't really MIND it, so long as I can be Frodo BEFORE the Ring showed up. Giving up the comfort and security of the Shire for the burden of the Ring and all the painful adventures he had to go through isn't something I'm exactly eager for!

Good morning! - hmmm... not busy yet but I should be... having a hard time getting started!

Just got this horrible news from 2JM via email:

Hair!!

I tried to download the higher operating system for my mac so I could run my movie and it totally wiped out my computer. I have nothing left on that lime green mac!

I got out my old computer that barely accesses the internet and that's how I'm contacting you now...I'm taking the lime one to my mom's so she can look at it, but I have very little hope.

Let everyone know on the thread that I'm able to read but not post (FR won't let me sign in because my browser is so old it won't do the cookie thing!)

This all happened yesterday around lunchtime, which is why I didn't get a chance to say good morning this morning!

Let Rosie know I'm glad she's back and tell OT what happened, if you don't mind...she was sending me a seedcake and I've been silent now for almost 24 hours!!

Argh. Now I guess I'll have to get up and buy that PC!

Kim aka 2jm

So wave at 2JM - she'll be waving back! Hi 2JM!

So...what has Boromir been doing today? Apparently I'm still Aragorn ("bit of a stick") Every time I "aim" at Pippin I come up Bombadil.
