Even though it looks silly, it always has a rather creepy ambience to me, since it looks exactly like what is known as Thorburn's position, which is one of the positions JFK assumes after he is shot (the elbows up position), so I always assume Frodo is re-enacting the Kennedy assassination. :P OK, that was pretty off the wall, wasn't it? I shall have to look for Merry pointing and laughing!<P>Cheers,<BR>Lyta<p>[ August 22, 2003: Message edited by: Lyta_Underhill ]
