Funny, I had a math teacher by the same name... IT'S A CONSPIRACY!!! Odd teachers unite under one name! Ahem, sorry, too many Skittles...

Estylen, I was intending to say. However, I can't correct it since it amuses I made such a typo on the typo thread. Yes, Esty, You're a substance.

How long do I spend on the Downs? ...probably the odd 15 minuets here and there.
And I always thought the Springle-ring was the most popular dance in Middle-earth!

Prompted by Mithalwen's keen eye for a funny line I have nominated my own post. And I quote:

Quote:
I like how Boromir is holding his horn to his mouth while engaged in 'pulling a moonie'.
I need to wash my mouth out with soap.

A river was needed to indicate the presence of someone who ate Faerie food? (aka room & board)

That's psychologically quite an adept description. When men are young and cool they can easily feel themselves to be sky-Gods. Fortunately that age passes...

Hey! I made it into the Typo thread! Hooray for meeeee....

Nogrod, if I recall correctly (and I've already showed my tendency to mix up people's ages ), you're not as old as you make yourself sound here...

As this is a family-friendly site I'm not sure if I dare to make any comments on this one... but the action surely looks interesting!
