I don't know if I said this before but, it's from the Underworld soundtrack, #5... Bowie of course! Sorry if i'm repeating me' self... It happens.
Yes, ye've said that already. Possibly more than once, but I haven't really been keeping track. From what I managed to hear it's pretty spiffy.
My friend got the Labyrinth soundtrack for Christmas...

The Eye

My friend once gave a list that had ten things LOTR addicts did. # 1 was "You legally change your name to Aragorn and hang around local taverns harrassing little people." Anyone guilty? Can't say that I am.

I don't know if this counts but every time my friend comes over we spend the whole time (usually 3+ hours) playing The Battle for Middle Earth. When he walked into the house, all I said was, "It's on" and walked upstairs. He sat straight down at the computer and we didn't stop playing for 3 hours. Talk about an addicting LOTR game!

That game won't work on my computer so I ransacked my friend's house one day and played for five hours! I love that game!

Christmas has lost its glimmer since ROTK came out last year. What do we have left to look forward to? (Guilty)
I am also guilty.

Heh, I still write in runes, even though I have no one to write to unless it is in a letter. I often use them to write my poems, stories, secrets, ect. in my journal. My brother knows them, but I don`t think he would ever take the time to read something I`ve written. And there`s always the stupid little things I write on my hands like, I poke badgers with spoons, or trees. When people ask what it says I love to tell them and see the looks on their faces!

I`ve gone on long enough. Shutting up.

Where?! Where!! Where!?!? Please tell me!
At www.councilofelrond.com, I think there's a link on the sidebar that says "language." I think the name generator's there. I could be wrong; I haven't been there in a while. Explore the site and you'll find it sooner or later. It wasn't hard to find, if memory serves me correctly. Sorry I can't be of more help.

You know you're addicted when there's a guy at your school whose name sounds like Cirdan and every time you hear it you go into a LOTR trance. (guilty)

You know you're addicted when you start referring to your chemistry teacher as Denethor because every experiment he does involves burning or blowing something up. (guilty)

This one should go in the You Know You're Addicted to the BD, but... what the heck. You know you're addicted when you start having dreams about Boromir breaking into your house so he can play your Dance Dance Revolution. (Guilty) He was dancing to the disco song "Ladies Night," in case you were wondering. He was pretty good at it, too.

Your idea of a good "oldie but goodie" game is The Two Towers for PS2. The one that came out only two years ago. (Guilty. Does anybody else think Gimli looks like a dried apple in that one?) You've spent hours staring at the monitor playing The Third Age, trying to get Elegost and Morwen to level up without dying. (Guilty)

You know you're obssesed with LOTRs when:

- You give Elvish names to all your friends and family

- You are fluent in dwarf runes

- You observe something written in a different language, have no idea what it really says, but can figure out what it might say in Elvish

- You walk around barefoot all the time, just because a Hobbit does

- You constantly compare people to the races of Middle Earth (Well, she's an Elf, he's definitely a Dwarf...)

- You go around acting like an Elf, Dwarf, Hobbit...

- You get jealous of anyone with pointed ears or large hairy feet

- You know the history of the Silmarils better than you know the history of your own country.

- You're considering naming you children after LOTRs characters...

But to what I was really gonna say. It was insanely cold today, but the sun was out. So when I went to work and as I was walking to the door I found myself (without even meaning to) saying "There is no warmth left in the sun." Not quite the same context as Eowyn meant it, but sooo cold...
