Dear fellow hobbits dwarfs, elves and ... humans! Wink

I was doing some Christmas shopping in the Toys R Us in Times Square,
New York when I noticed a couple guys setting up a LOTR display. Since
I was there to buy the LOTR version of RISK, I went over and found the
"usual stuff"
(LOTR Monopoly, Trivial Pursuit, RISK and Chess etc.) but was amazed
to see a whole cache of weapons from the movie on display! (Sword of
Aragorn, Sword of Gandalf "Glamdring", Axe of Gimli, Bow of Legolas &
others!) As I stood
there ogling, I overheard the employees talking about Andy Serkis's
appearance on Wednesday! My purchase (apparently) entitled me to meet
and get an autograph from Gollum himself ! In addition... I found out
that they are having a sweepstakes to win Wormtongue's dagger!

So... for those of you in NY, Andy Serkis will be signing autographs
on December 17th from 1-5PM. AND the sweepstakes drawing will happen
at 5PM!

Dan

PS I wonder if Andy looks anything like his character! Wink

The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,
at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.

What is LotR *really* about? - Seemingly an easy question to answer: "it's about Frodo's quest to destroy the One Ring and, as a backdrop, about the war in Middle- earth". But it's not that simple, is it. So what *is* it about?

3-in-1 LotR edition - I bought the recent Houghton 3-in-1 but many text lines were smeared and some pages were printed crooked. Also the page with the ring writing had the wrong font in the wrong places. They don't make things like they used to, huh.

LOTR First Day Covers - Hi, visit www.philstampcovers.co.uk for a new perspective. Have fun!

LOTR online? - Does anyone know where I can find the text of the books online? The library says they are checked out and not due back for months, they are so popular. And I can't afford to buy them right now. So if I can find the text online, I might be able to finally...
