Very good. I read all the books in the early 70's. I haven't seen any of the movies.

"With gray bacon, gray cheese, and gray buttermilk biscuits? People who are profoundly colorblind can be helped -- by colored contact lenses!!
Put a red-tinted lens in one eye, and green-tinted in the other. Over a period of time, and training, the brain can learn to discriminate "color" from the dissimilar images presented.
I would think, after the training period, that a more muted color difference might be used, for the cosmetic reason of not having too-different looking eyes.
I don't think I know anyone who uses, or needs, this kind of program, so it is posted as a public service.
On the other hand, someone who is "cooler-blind" is just being lazy, always sending someone else to fetch the beer.

Ethnic Humor
A plane leaves Los Angeles Airport under the control of a Jewish captain. His copilot is Chinese. It's the first time they've flown together and an awkward silence between the two seems to indicate a mutual dislike.
Once they reach cruising altitude, the Jewish captain activates the autopilot, leans back in his seat, and mutters, "I don't like Chinese."
"No rike Chinese?" asks the copilot, "why not?"
"You people bombed Pearl Harbor, that's why!"
"No, no," the copilot protests, "Chinese not bomb Peahl Hahbah! That Japanese, not Chinese."
"Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese ... doesn't matter, you're all alike!"
There's a few minutes of silence.
"No rike Jews!" the copilot suddenly announces.
"Why not?" asks the captain.
"Jews sink Titanic."
"Jews didn't sink the Titanic!" exclaims the captain, "It was an iceberg!"
"Iceberg, Goldberg, Greenberg, Rosenberg, no mattah ... all same."

Surprisingly the movies are good, you should see them.
But I still prefer the books.

I have actually read the Hobbit and the Triology twice. I'm sure the movies are good but the books let my mind make the movies.
