Welcome, Mr. Bugtussle! Pardon my manners for not welcoming you earlier.

As for replicas of The Ring, I agree, I would not have one myself. Although LotR is just fiction (shocked silence, I know!), I still would feel that I was looking for trouble by parading around with one.

Mark 12_30 -- what a great idea about the silver ring! It's a lot less painful than my way of ridding myself of negative habits or thought patterns. I have always put a rubber band on my wrist and popped myself everytime I caught myself indulging in whatever behavior I was trying to eliminate, in order to remind myself of what I was about. At first, it's okay, but after awhile it gets really painful, but, boy, it makes you pay attention. Eventually, I throw away the rubber band...
