Hmmm... I saw ROTK for the fourth time today... and it's only been out ten days. Damn, I'm slipping. But one of my brother's friends has seen it eight times, AND was at the premier in New Zealand!

In junior high, I was into TSR and Games Workshop games. I introduced a friend to the games and he kept telling me how much of it was borrowed from Tolkien. Eventually, he convinced me to read the series (starting with the Hobbit) and I was hooked.

In my first year of college, my literature professor made us read the Tale of Beren & Luthien. I liked it but didnt look for more of Tolkien until my third year. Our college dean gave us an assignment to write about any book we chose. I wanted to impress him so I chose LotR (which I knew he liked a lot) and I was hooked!

Everytime i'm alone in my room with nothing to do, i pick up one of my LotR books and read away...
