I guess I'm just too Protestant for this stuff, or maybe I was exposed to P.J. O'Rourke when I was too young :-).

I've read LOTR a number of times, but more recently it's been mainly for the language, and for a few characters and episodes that I particularly like. The "important, meaningful" characters and events just irritate or depress me. Maybe it's a personal flaw that I should reflect upon ...
