Why consort with the dead?

[Tigerlily Gamgee]

I agree with everything you have stated, Lush. I am nearing my one-year in a month or so, I believe.
I have stayed because of those members who I riddle with, quiz with, discuss Tolkien with, have mayhem with... and just because it makes me feel at home. I can't share my love of Tolkien in everyday life like I can here. It makes me very happy to come here at nights and read and post with everyone, though I find myself with lack of sleep very often. I love having such an obsession, and it's nice to know that I am not alone.
The internet is truly an amazing thing. I can talk to people I have never met in person, but if I do meet them I feel as though I have known them forever!
I raise a glass to you (if that is wise [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ), Lush, and to everyone here. Thanks for a great year and, hopefully, many more to come [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
