I often find myself wishing that there were a section on the BD where random off topic chattiness was welcome, other than a chatroom, that is. There are some of of us who tend to like mulling over an answer before posting. And chatroom is no place for ents.

The garden theme that was flourishing in the Coming of Age thread was a nice read for me. Sometimes it is a pleasure to socialize with other 'Tolkienites' about every day things, and to realize that we have an common appreciation for other things as well.
