At first I thought Imladris or Lorien, but now I'm starting to like the Shire too.

When I listen to "Concerning Hobbits," I feel like I'm really there, and it makes me very happy.

Since Bombadil is the eldest and the fatherless, but Treebeard is the oldest living being, it leads me to believe that Bombadil is the oldest nonliving being, but Treebeard is the oldest living being.

Okay, now that I think of it, you're right, the essay is not conclusive. However, it is a fun idea and, I think worth discussing.

I wish I had a digital camera so I could send in a picture. But sadly, I probably won't have one for a very long time.

I agree with you, I believe Tolkien made Tom as an enigma for us to wonder about. I think he's one of a kind. The only label I can think of is to call him a Bombadil.

I believe that the other "force" is fate, hence it was Boromr's destiny to go and the destiny of the Fellowship to break.

I completely agree with Dynaviir. They added a whole lot of little things (that I thought were pointless changes) when they could have put in the right stuff like Gandalf confronting Saruman. Also,...
