I don't think he's old enough to drive yet...so that's out of the question.

Destructor's class would be:

How I Came To Be A Troll.

He could also teach:

Understanding Orc and Uruk-hai: The Language of Flaming

101 Ways to Cook Hobbit, Dwarf and Elf

101 Ways to Cook Man Flesh

Sentimenal Journey: Necking with Nazgul

He'd probably demand some sort of honorarium and I don't think we would be prepared to pay those out.

I was hoping we'd get chari.....uh, I mean, I was hoping we'd get speakers for free.

12. Discerning the Gender of a Dwarf.

. It was said by Gimli that there are few dwarf-women, probably no more than a third of the whole people. They seldom walk abroad except at great need, They are in voice and appearance, and in garb if they must go on a journey, so like to the dwarf-men that the eyes and ears of other peoples cannot tell them apart. This has given rise to the foolish opinion among Men that there are no dwarf-women, and that the Dwarves 'grow out of stone'.

Even though my wife thinks my obsession's a little weird, she doesn't mind it any, I don't think.

She's very outgoing and really enjoys meeting people, so an "Entmoot" will be right up her alley, she won't mind the quirkiness of it at all, as she's a little quirky herself.

She read LOTR in college, she says, but hasn't felt any need to ever read it again, as I do. I did convince her to go to the theatre with me to see it 3 of the 5 times I went.

But I look forward very much to meeting everyone, I expect the Entmoot to be a really fun occasion.

Do you think we should have shirt stickers with both our screen and real names, like if we were at a convention?

Maybe to be safe we should address every Dwarf we meet as "ma'am" until we know for sure. ;^)

I was thinking of name tags with at least our FR handles on them. Real name could be optional, but I think real names would be exchanged very quickly.

That's what I did (shirt stickers - I still have hundreds of blanks if needed) when I put together the Florida FReeper Inauguration Celebration back in January 2000.

It helps to distinguish who everyone is, and it also gives the paranoid people the option of just going by their screen name.

FReeper parties are fun, but I know that this entmoot will be more than fun, it will be a blast! The main reason being that there is nothing really to disagree about since we all love LoTR, whereas in political discussion there will always be disagreement.
