Once upon a time, after doing something not approved of with a pair of friends (I think we left school grounds for lunch or something stupid like that) our school disciplinarian made a beeline towards us at our lockers, and, before thinking I cried aloud; "'Ware! Ware! Mumak! May the Valar turn him aside!" It got me an extra 20 minutes of detention (and the teacher a new nickname), but it was worth it! The look on our teacher's face was simply priceless. And I had to explain to him who the Valar are, and what a Mumak is. This was my English Literature teacher too... *sigh* Uneducated git.
Other than that, my LotR obcession is pretty low-key. Only my brother knows the full extend of my madness.

Well I drew the tolkinen symbol thing under the bench on the tennis court!

I found out recently, quite by accident, that that symbol is identical to the Chinese symbol for "East." Does anyone know if that is intentional?
