OK not really, but there's this guy who shops around my store fairly often and he looks just ike a hobbit (except for height) but like a mean scary hobbit, like ted sandyman. seriously the guy creeps me out, but still he reminds me of LOTR so that's OK.

has anyone else ever seen someone who reminds you of LOTR?

One of my colleagues at the library would make a great Gimli (or any other Dwarf): rather shortish and squat, round ruddy face, long curly brownish hair and an impressive greying beard; plus, he's not averse to a pint. He would look great with a battle axe.

I frequently have the notion that the faceless terror of a modern bureaucratic control society (like Sweden) is much like the eye of Sauron, as the Orcs perceive it.

And you would probably not get many people returning their books late.

Indeed. Unfortunately, he doesn't do duty at the issue desk.

My history teacher could pass off as a warg.

I kid you not, but this week I came across someone whose first name is Nazgul.

Seriously. Is that a real name or were her parents warped Tolkien fans ... ?
