Morning, everyone. Yeah, it is Monday. Kind of chilly here in Miami.
To: g'nad
ain't it a federal holiday?It should be.
To: Overtaxed
Yes, worry your little heart out! I will worry too, that way it won't happen! Only a few minutes of worry should suffice, I would guess anything that withstood the ice storm can handle a bit of wind.
To: HairOfTheDog
Well....I'll try. Usually I'm trying not to worry.
To: Sam Cree
Kind of chilly here in Miami. I bet! - Did it get below below 70? Did you have to put on long pants today? heh.
To: HairOfTheDog
Well, now you can get that hemlock taken down...
To: Sam Cree
Do I have to do that today? - Its pouring out! :~D
To: HairOfTheDog
Well, it was 52 this morning, but should get to near 70 by this afternoon...mid 70's tomorrow afternoon..
Hi, Hair.
To: Sam Cree

Hello g'nad...it's nice weather really, lots cooler than this time last year, but nice. I'm just mainly glad that we were really never threatened by hurricanes this summer.

I missed the reading of FOTR here. At the time I was unaware of the Tolkien community threads here on FR. It was only about a month or two ago when I noticed a few threads and asked to be put on the ping lists.
You are right about holding off for a week or so to start the Tolkien Virgin articles. Even before starting them, I wanted to get some input and also give people enough time to be ready for the reading schedule if they wanted to read at the same pace. I know that I will have to find where I have hidden away my copy of The Silmarillion (either that, or ask someone for a hardbound version as a gift for the holidays). :-)

Sounds lovely. It is amazing how much wildlife lives, thrives even, on military installations. Up here, APG is more of a Wildlife Refuge than a proving ground.
To: Sam Cree
OOOOh 52 is chilly!
It is unseasonably warm here the last few weeks. Lows in the mid to upper 40s rather than the frosts we would normally get. I guess that is a good thing. At least I am not breaking ice out of water buckets!
To: ItsOurTimeNow
There are some really good medical people on FR. Maybe you should start a vanity thread and ask the General crowd for some input. But, be forewarned, you might get more than you intended to ask for, and you'll likely need to cull and ignore some of the responses. Still, I would do it, just to get some info where I could.
God bless you and your wife, that you give birth to a happy beautiful child.

We did one long thread, although it was really two threads because we moved it to General Interest halfway through with a copy/paste. We called it the Green Dragon Inn, and we did a chapter or two a week.
We started Two Towers, but it pooped out when I got too busy and distracted to keep going, and participation was down anyway. We are gonna start it again after the first of the year, when everyone is pumped (hopefully) about the movie. The Green Dragon threads are bookmarked on my profile page if you want to check out the format we used. The first few chapters of FoTR are sortof a mess from the copy/paste, but you can get the gist of it!
To: g'nad
Hey Corin, how did the last performances go? zzzzzzzz....hmmmm....wha?....I'mup, I'mup....
Thing went well. But I need a nap. Hopefully some folks will send me some pics I can post (maybe at the Yahoo site?).
I've got a bored meeting this morning. I'll be back later to catch up.
To: Corin Stormhands
You can't post the pictures from the Yahoo site to here, the links don't work. But you could create an album there where we could go look.... at least those that are members!
To: Corin Stormhands
Oh, and Hullo! - Good Morning!
To: HairOfTheDog; Corin Stormhands
You can't post the pictures from the Yahoo site to here, the links don't work ummmm Hair, remember the pics of my new homestead I posted about a month ago?... those were posted from my Yahoo photo album...
To: g'nad
I don't know about Yahoo photo albums in general! but we can't post pictures from the Yahoo Hobbit Hole site, maybe because it is a private group.
