Thanks for the ping. But did you follow the links to the article about this guy?
JERUSALEM (Reuters): Bandaged and bloody, Mark Sokolow lay on his hospital bed, a lucky survivor of both Sunday's suicide bomb attack in Jerusalem and the September 11 hijacked plane attack on the World Trade Centre in New York.
Man...if I see his name on a passenger list, I'm staying home. Poor guy.

Cute article. Did you see this one on TTT? On the same site... following links to other LOTR stories...
Elijah Wood loves Gollum scenes in second Rings film
Elijah Wood has revealed his favourite scenes in the second Lord Of The Rings film.
He is due back in New Zealand soon to finish work on The Two Towers.
Wood, who plays Frodo in the trilogy, says his favourite scenes involve the CGI created character Gollum.
"There's a scene where he takes us through marshes, and within these marshes are dead bodies floating underwater in these ethereal lights, tempting Frodo," Wood tells Entertainment Weekly.
"It's pretty wonderful."
The Two Towers is due to be released later in the year.

Thanks for the smiles... My fellowship has split up and gone off hunting orcs, Soldiers are preparing for war and I am desperately worried about Frodo and Sam... I must get back to my reading.

Just saw the movie again yesterday, for the 6th time! And we're just taking off from Rivendell...my 3rd reading since the movie came out.
Thanks for the ping, ecurbh!

Wait a second there! I'm probably going again tonight, the boys are going to Tiger Cubs with their dad and I can go alone.
To: HairOfTheDog
Perfect...
My favorite scenes in the trilogy are the Gollum scenes in Two Towers. Gollum is a riot! It is these scenes that I have looked forward to seeing since I first read the books.
In Gollum, Tolkien has drawn a rich character. I think my favorite scene in the whole 1000 pages is where Sam is cooking the conies. The conversation between Gollum and Sam is brilliant.
To: BibChr
Whoa!
I am one behind. I have seen it six times. And the six time was the best! It gets better every time I see it.
To: 2Jedismom
LOL! I love meeting a fellow-obsessive! What a budget-buster this movie has been!
So, have you seen Gollum at the Argonath? We don't. (I've never seen "the car," either.)

Yikes! And I thought the HCNB Xena fans were a bit of a worry.

You actually don't see the car. You see the dust the car raises. It is when Sam is standing in front of the scarecrow telling Frodo that one more step will lead him further than he has ever gone.
