I'll see what I can do; as it happens, I am one of the tiny minority of Scots who don't own bagpipes. Though my favourite suggestion at the moment is a recreation of a certain Elvis Presley photo.

I've sent one of me. Not the best pic, but the only decent one I've got at the moment. I'll send a better one later.

Such a pair of cynics... Now I suppose the real question is... will you say yes if I do? No, seriously though... I always picture the phantom as himself these days, although occasionally a snout, fangs, and claws have been added, but with Fordim, I've always pictured him the same. Either as Indie himself, or as Marcus. Although occasionally there's a snout, fangs, and claws added.

I just sent Tigerlily a pic of me. It's a bit blurry and it was taken over a year ago, but it's still one of the best images of me (and unfortunately there aren't many of those)

I'm now beginning to adjust myself to Downers' real-life appearances. It's not very easy, though. During the almost two years that I have been here, I have had plenty of time to form my own mental pictures of you all.

Note to Feanor of the Peredhil regarding my picture:

It was taken by Mrs. alatar with a disposable waterproof camera. And thanks for the compliment, and I've passed the 'props' onto my wife.

And note that y'all don't look as I had expected, as I was thinking more along the lines of 'Star Trek convention-like'.

I'd really like to send in a picture, I'm gonna be hanging around for quite a while..... I'm not photogenic at all so it may take me a while to find one that's not too bad.

I have to say: You're all gorgeous! Does anyone else think that The Phantom look's a bit like Brad Pitt?

Any time, alatar. It was quite a well-taken picture. Is that L'il alatar by your side?

Hehe... Star Trek convention-like... so true.

And Tig, I missed your birthday? Many apologies, I was out of town for the day. I hope you had a wonderful day.

What a little cutie. And do you really need an excuse to play LotR? Although I admit that it might look a little odd to neighbors to see a group of adults playing....

I'm glad some of our members are encouraging a new generation of fans...

Some families/cultures just don't get it. It's okay for adults to paint their faces and bodies, wear goofy clothes, participate in unusual rituals and get all drunked up and shout at other persons playing a child's game (football, basketball, etc), yet if I were to don a cloak and sword and play 'LOTR,' then I must be some kind of NUT.


Quote:

I do a quick version of the Hobbit and LOTR for the kids sometimes before bed, and they have watched all three movies (EE), though I skipped a few of the more boring scenes and lied regarding the fates of the 'dead' - "Oh no, they're not hurt. Those people/horses just fell down..."

The boy figured out that even orcs can't live without their heads attached - the beginnings of skepticism and investigation.

It brings tears to my eyes knowing that my children don't have nightmares about orcs, trolls and the like, yet run screaming from Santa and the Easter Bunny at the mall.

Sniff...

What you do in that case, is to show him the "dead" orc at the end of the Fellowship. As Aragorn's is running to Boromir, the orc looks up and watches him go by. Say to him, "But you thought this one was dead, and he isn't."

Ha ha. Good point there. Worst case scenario would be that both kinds of people are nuts, because that makes me doubly nuts, being both a sports fan and a LOTR fan.

That's a natural reaction. I ran from Santa when I was three. Well, I tried to run anyway, but my preschool teacher picked me up and plopped me forcibly onto his lap. I then proceeded to ease Santa's hurt feelings with a "I don't like you! I wanna go!"

Quite honestly, and perhaps not surprisingly, I can imagine this easily. Now the true fun would be if somebody decided to host a Barrowdowns Baby Picture Contest with prizes going out to who can accurately identify which baby picture belongs to each screen name.

The phantom's would obviously be the one kicking Santa right square in the shin.

The Barrow-Wight's would presumably be green and glowing.

Yep. Never considered myself good looking, and as I've never been approached to be a movie star nor a male model, assume that others observe the same. What my wife sees, I have no clue, but I do note that she can't see past her own nose without her contacts...

And, yes, my back is turned, but it's my favorite picture - couldn't find any other picture with the kids and me that I thought was good enough for the B-Ds. As a very proud parent, can't help mentioning the kids when I can squeeze it into conversation.

And throw in some Star Wars mania, and you'd never have to wear normal clothes again.

Life is short. Have a little fun now and again. My son and I hope to explore Moria this summer, and who cares what others think when they see our wooden swords and shields.

I was never a big Santa fan, and so seeing my kids avoid the 'Santa's lap' obligatory picture (how boring!) every year just warms me inside. And it's not because I'm whispering to them that Santa will eat them, so it must be genetic .

Still, headless orcs and mumakil-flattened Rohirrim are hard to explain without using the D-word.

Another positive is that that kids and I have discussed that the films do not depict actual events, and the EE extras with unmasked and dancing orcs helps show that it's all 'pretend.' We then moved on to discussing the toy commercials that bombard the kids constantly - "you thought that orcs looked real, then we saw that they were just like Daddy. Now, you see that toy car flying through the air...do you really think that it will perform as such when we buy it and get it home?"

That is quiet a wonderful suggestion. Though, being bald at birth, I would have to pass... Maybe a toddler contest would do myself and others born hair-less more justice in identity. or, we can just chant the famous line: Bald is Beautiful!... and remain mystery alien babies.

Oh no! If I had known that was how you saw me, Aman, I wouldn't have sent a picture to Tigerlily! I'm flattered, really and truly.

There's a bunch of new pics up. Very nice, people.

And is it just me, or does Davem make anyone else think of Giles from Buffy?

I don't know about that...

However, Lalwende looks eerily like somebody I knew about six years ago...

Maybe she has an evil twin.

Very nice, indeed.

SpM's and Alatar's pics are just adorable!

Fordim looks adorable... I love black and white photos, they seem to show more depth than colour.


And Kit's picture has me puzzled. Just out of curiousity, Kitanna, are you going to a prom or some other party?

Actually Mr. Phantom, you remind me of a Ciraulo that played for the Mahoning Valley Phantoms hockey team...hmmm what a coincidence.
