Howdy all.

I'm a long time lurker here (I first found this site back just before the movies came out) and I finally decided I had better sign up.

Better late then never, huh?

Good to have you Rockin...Casbah, ooh which do you want your name shortened to?

I lurked for ages too, it's a good way to get to know what's going on. Get stuck in!

Rockin_tha_Casbah · 07-19-2006, 09:46 AM

Haha, it doesn't matter to me.

Though when I think about it, "Casbah" sounds a bit better than just plain "Rockin".

But hey, whatever floats your oyster, right?

Kath · 07-19-2006, 09:48 AM

Casbah it is

Well in terms of what floats your oyster, we've got Crazy Captions, a couple of werewolf games being set up so go ahead and join one of those if you'd like, plenty of RPGs on the go. Or the SbS which is going through the films bit by bit. Just poke your head in and get posting

Funny you should mention that.

I've been reading through a lot of the threads and...well, lets just say I've forgotten a good bit of Tolkien. I might have to step my reading up a notch if I want to compete.

While I'll always advocate reading the books again, there is plenty you can do on here without having a fantastic grasp of them. So you could join those threads until you feel you know the books better.

Hey, I say that!

Casbah, I like you already.

Well, I think I started saying it after I read it on this board, but looking at your join date, I don't know if I got it from you or somebody else.

I'm certainly not the only one to say it. Heck, I can't even remember the origin of the phrase. Oh well.

"Rock the Casbah! Rock the Casbah! I really don't want to... Rock the Casbah! Rock the Casbah!"
