WQ is, I guess, not a percentage. It's like an IQ score. You totally bombed...
Well, those taking a 'weirdness test' are a pretty skewed sample ;~D
We gotta go pick up some hay~
Back later.
I are not wierd?
Wondering whether or not to ping 2J to this thread, titled "The Other Small Game?"

Wouldn't bother me at all to hunt a bunch of feral chickens! You got your fish tank fish and your fishin' pole fish!
Makes my stomach growl thinking about it. LOL
Not according to them...
theboy's got a sharp eye :) Jackson took some cinematic liberties there. The book says Shelob stung Frodo in the neck: ". . .but Frodo did not speak. As he had run forward. . .Shelob. . .had stung him in the neck." ("Two Towers", Book 4, Chapter 10)
"First there was Deliverance, then we red states re-elect Bush, and now its the plight of the wild chicken to have to suffer our southern charm!!! I can even see it now, in a month or two we will start seeing deer on billboards everywhere with quotes like "Shaft mor chikens" or "Save our Herd and feed yurs, shoot a chiken"
I don't know if OB mentioned it or not, but Gypsy didn't bark when we adopted her. In fact, she had been adopted once before, but the people brought her back three days later 'cause she didn't bark.
Anyway, we had her 4-5 months before she decided she wouldn't get beat if she barked. Now, she will bark at all the appropriate times (doorbell, mailman, etc.) and she will also bark if the dogs next door start barking. She won't get off her bed, or most times, even raise her head, but she will bark with them. It is very funny to watch.
Dogs are the greatest!
Apparently some dwarf kids go to this high school:

Wow! Thanks everybody for taking the time to answer my questions with such excellent detail. It makes me want to read the books!
I wish the movie had given more time to Faramir and Eyowen. I thought their story was interesting... talk about rebounding!
they're better fried...
I was especially proud of Sam this morning. Nana's trained him to go outside by himself since she can't take him out. (He gets a treat when he comes back in).
This morning he had to go. Whilst he was out the truck came with the dryer. I thought I'd have to go haulin' out after him. He basically went to the edge of the driveway and barked, then came on up on the deck.
He's a good boy.
'course the fact that it was rainin' didn't hurt I'm sure.
Join the club and read the books! There's quite a bit of Faramir and Eowyn that didn't get put in. Much less "rebound" too - it's obvious that Aragorn's not right and Faramir is.
Mmmmm...Faramir...
Yeah, he has some of the most romantic lines EVER, and they weren't even hinted at in the theatrical movie, and only hinted at in the Extended Edition. Wonderful stuff...
More questions: :)
1. In the beginning what was Sauron's true form?
2. In the book, did Frodo really decide to keep the ring instead of throwing it into the lava?
3. When Sam hesitates to give the ring back, is it because he is tempted, or is he concerned about Frodo's state?
4. Should I read the "Simillarion" (spelling?) before the LOTR?
5. Who sends Gandalf back and why has his form changed?
YOu guys are so smart, thanks for answering!!!!
Yes. MMMMMMMMM Faramir, yum. He was a cutie pie.
I like 'em rotisseried...dip the meat in Louisiana Hot Sauce...
mmmmm....
see y'all later. gotta go pick up Jr. from school. He had to stay after to make up a test he missed due to the band concert.
they wuz talkin' 'bout brains...
