That wraith is pretty cool. But why is Frodo in white?

[Mamzelle]

re: Oh, I'm sure! It would seem like Rivendell!)))

A river helps--I think the ruins of Rivendell are to be found somewhere in the Nantahalla.

I picture the Silmarilian as an opera, more than LOTR. But I'm a sucker for scenery design--what I would have given to be on the design crew of this opera!

[MikefromOhio]

I wonder if they got This into the play???

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

I love that tune. It is so haunting...so sad.

What I found out is that there are lots of MP3's of train sound recordings on the internet that can be used in place of ringtones!

How do you get an MP3 off the 'net onto your phone as a ringtone?

"How do you get an MP3 off the 'net onto your phone as a ringtone?"

My phone can record sounds, so I just played the train horns over the computer speakers and recorded them; then transferred the file to "ringtones." I admit to having needed help from my daughter on this, but it only took her a few seconds.

My phone can also recieve and send emails, including ringtones from the Cingular site, so perhaps that's the better way of doing it. It also has a cord to upload images to the computer - whether or not mp3's can be downloaded through the cord I don't know, but maybe.

Thanks. I had thought of everything but the built in digital recorder. Very resourceful.

This seems like a spectacularly lousy idea, but then, the only musical I like is "The Wizard of Oz".

[BenLurkin]

I wonder if is still running or if the show closed already.

I also thought the musical based on Dr Seuss was dopey. :')
