Hello, my name is Earendil Halfelven, and I'm a Tolkien-aholic. I have FOTR and TTT movie posters hanging up in my room that are from an AMC movie theater, a 4ftX6ft canvas banner of TTT with a life size Frodo also hanging in my room that is from another AMC movie theater (I have connections at the theater [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ) , a copy of the TTT DVD from the Oscars (now, you may say its a scam dvd or that copy in Chinese, but since its in English and about 6 times throughout the movie, the words "For Your Consideration" come onto the screen, which shows that its from the Oscars.), and that I've read LOTR 5 times since I was in 7th grade and am now a senior in highschool (I can bet that there are others that have read it billion more times than me but hey, I like to read other stuff too).

*tears form in Earendil's eyes*
My friends make fun of me because I like LOTR, and I don't like to watch the Dallas Mavericks (which btw, are getting spanked by the Spurs [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] ). I defend myself by saying that I'd rather read books which will help me prevent alzhiemer's in the long run, than sit perplexed at the tv and watch sweaty men bounce a teeny orange, leather ball. And, with my little brothers, they used to make fun of me, but not anymore!
*a crazed look replaces the tears in Earendil's eyes*
They used to tease me, but after a few beatings, they stopped. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] I have cultivated and conditioned them into good ol' LOTR fans like us!
