Oh come Rune, I like bones. It signifies, for me anyway, that the fresh meat is becoming aquainted with the rest of us here dead people.

Bones make neat music...*tunes ribs* Look! I'm a Glockenspiel! (sp?)

Since skellingtons (gee, it's been too long since I read that book...long enough I can't remember which one it is...David Copperfield maybe?) make Rune nervous, I will cheerfully haunt Glirdan until I can muster up a more compelling phantasm.

Thank you for the warm welcome. Or is it a cold and clammy welcome?

I would give you a hug but I've got bony elbows.

Whatever the temperature, it was friendly!

And who cares about elbows? I can't feel anything anyway...there's nothing to me anymore!

That's kind of a nifty feature, incorporeality. Working my way up...or out...or whatever.

Greetings, I stumbled onto these forums earlier this night and after some time of reading posts I became very impressed with the type of people who post here. So I thought it might be nice to join a group of such likable and intelligent people.

Welcome, Witch-King of Angmar. I hope we don't disappoint you.

I'm curious about your choice of moniker. Do you plan to discuss the Books? Films? ....get involved in rpgs? All of it?

Probably check out the Book and movie forums for the most part. (Although one can never tell where they will end up spending time, so I may end up joing the rpgs and doing other stuff.) As for my moniker, it simply comes from me being fascinated by the Nazgûl when I first read the books as the young age of twelve. This fascination with them and their leader has not dimmed over time, so it was the first thing that came to my mind when thinking of a name for this message board.

Just thought I'd better say "hello". Have read LOTR countless times (more than 20) and am now trying it in Dutch (and I'm not Dutch, in case you're wondering). I'm also extremely fond of "Leaf By Niggle" and "Smith of Wootton Major", but I have read all of JRRT's books, of course.

I'm a musician, amongst other things.

Welcome PrinceoftheHalflings! Is it alright if I call you Halfling Prince?

Anyhow, welcome to the Barrow Downs!

I can't see what good that brings, Groin. It's still about as long. I think sooner or later, some better nickname will come up, like PotH, or PoH, or even Winnie the PooH.

Anyway, once again welcome to the Downs, HP! (Harry Potter?!?) Enjoy your stay! (And Leaf by Niggle and the Smith are good, indeed )
