If anyone can help it, never read The Pearl. It goes on the list of all time worst books I've ever read. We're reading Of Mice and Men in English right now, and as usual I finished it early. I extremely disliked the ending.

Allergies! Hate 'em, especially when they continue even though the allergen has gone. Bah humbug.

Hmm, yes. Microwave popcorn, its taste and smell, belong in Mordor.
Real popcorn, done in the old-fashioned way - dried kernels cooked in oil in a pot on a stove, then salted while still hot - should be given a place of honour on any Hobbiton menu.
