Yet another news article talking about Tolkien...

This one is much nicer. Although it basically doesn't say anything, it's a Tolkienite's story... I particularly loved these bits:

Quote:
Despite the success of Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings movies, despite the buzz about his upcoming adaptation of The Hobbit, I don’t think kids and teens today are nearly as excited by Tolkien as we were back in my day. They have so many more literary options – and Harry Potter is an easier, faster, more exciting read, with less poetry and a far higher death count.
-made me laugh, though it's the sad truth.

Quote:
But, as I joked with the guys here, I didn’t end up as Arwen, married to Aragorn. I grew up to be Rose Cotton, married to Sam Gamgee
-awwww.

Quote:
Love like a hobbit.

And may the hair on your toes grow ever longer.
-Hurray for Tolkiendom!
