Looks like we needed some sustainable harvest practices in Mirkwood...

For what it is worth. Not much, of course, we can't sue him. Let's sue him anyway! :)
No wait...it'll end up some lawyer getting rich. Never mind.

There is just a few lines of it... then it goes into interviews and other things... Some of the other clips at the publisher's site are worthwhile too....

Well I'll be. Frodo could have taken the train to Rivendell!

All those big cities ,the lumber has to come from somewhere.
I wonder how many spotted owls had to die to build whoville(whoville?)
To: damnlimey
There is no Whoville in Middle Earth!... Nor Grinches... ;~D

I think our cartographer got confused... I think Hobbits are much more Libertarian than Socialist anyhow... Unless things went downhill fast after our hobbits departed over the sea.
To: HairOfTheDog
Maps don't lie.Take the southwestern line from Rivendell,first stop Whoville,say hi to cindy loo for me.; >)
To: HairOfTheDog
Sharkey's return!
To: damnlimey
It's not bad enough that we have orcs to deal with. Now we have those sorry Who's moving in!
To: damnlimey
Well, I guess Who-folk are harmless... We aren't likey to have any trouble from them.
To: HairOfTheDog
P.E.T.A. appeared harmless at first but they spawned the Earth Liberation Front,
E.L.F.
Coincidence,I think not,we need to round up all the elves right now and close the borders.

We aren't likey to have any trouble from them. Just an overproduction of sugary sweetness...will depress honey and sugar prices.

Coincidence,I think not,we need to round up all the elves right now and close the borders. Hehehe. Just wait 'til Jen gets here. :D
The Elves are on their way out anyway.

Well at least a few of the predictors are giving our film a chance!On AOL IM they have a link to Entertainment Weekly's Oscar predictions, giving horse race type odds for the major categories. They show PJ and Ian McKellan as slight favorites, and ABM nosing out LOTR for Best Picture (3-2 for ABM and 2-1 for LOTR). They give reasons for and against each contender in each contest, in all cases the reason against LOTR is that it is a fantasy and 'fantasies don't win'. As an example of this they cite Star Wars not winning, which makes me think that they haven't seen the movie.
They do suggest that voters may wait until the trilogy is finished to give awards. The idea that PJ is more likely to beat Opie than LOTR is to defeat ABM seems to go against most other commentary I have heard. Oh well, about thirteen and a half hours to go!
