Midge,

That's the version I have, and that is Ted Naismith's painting

. In fact, I ordered not one but TWO copies of that same version. It's the one to have ;-), generally.

***Jonathan*** · 05-20-2010, 02:45 PM

Why do you persist in spelling his name wrong? It's Ted Nasmith, Nasmith!

My Silmarillion has many great pictures by him in it.

I really like how the settings in the LotR movies are so obviously based on the renderings of the great Tolkien artists. Alan Lee and John Howe worked with the film crew, I don't know whether Nasmith did too.

hectorberlioz · 05-20-2010, 02:48 PM

No it isn't!

I was sure it was Naesmith...

***Jonathan*** · 05-20-2010, 02:51 PM

With an 'e'? Then why didn't you spell it like that? (Even if that too would be wrong)

hectorberlioz · 05-20-2010, 02:58 PM

I ought to have you tried in court for your insolence

***Jonathan*** · 05-20-2010, 03:00 PM

No, Nasmith ought to have you tried

Oh wait, you're already on trial...

It's funny because it's true!

Gwaimir Windgem · 05-20-2010, 03:10 PM

Surely we can tack on another charge? Although, perhaps, Nasmith is a bit too cheesy to be worth adding a charge...

That's the ones I have, too. My dad bought them for me for my birthday on year.

I don't own the Sil myself, but I stole my dad's copy when I was reading it. His has the Silmarillion with finrod, I think, on the cover. I got maybe halfway through before he demanded it back.

Long time since I posted here...*waves* Seems I missed a lot of crazy politics. Which is fine, since none of the parties were promoting Quenya anyway.

Still, congratulations (however belated!) are due to our new president. Well done, Acally!

Oh, shut it, you're just nagging because I brought up the camera incident in your court case.

I wonder what the legal ramifications are of Joonathon trying Hector, while Hector tries Jonathon. If you call upon Cheneyian powers you might just make it Hector

I always make two bags. One for eating, and one for throwing.

So, I gave my dog a bath this morning. She was not very happy with me. She tried to pee on me a couple of times as I was attempting to lift her into the tub (she missed), and then she shook the water off on to me as soon as I let her out (luckily I had already toweled her down, so she was mostly dry).

Now she keeps licking herself all over, especially her feet. I don't think that's going to make her any drier

. At least she smells nice now

. She was gettin' stinky.

"And we're back on M.O.O.T. 102,2 with the Moots playing this classic Tom Jones tune..."

The old moot threads looks the same as I when I logged in

And there to meet me is my momma and my papa

Down the road I look and there runs Mari

Hair of gold and lips like cherry

It’s good to post the green, green threads of the moot

Yes they’ll all come to meet me arms a reaching smiling sweetly

It’s good to post the green, green threads of the moot

The old moot threads are till there tho the some members has left

And there’s that old mooter that I used to chat with

Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mari

Hair of gold and lips like cherry

It’s good to post the green, green threads of the moot

Then I awake and look around me

At world wide web that surround me

And I realise that I was only dreaming

For there’s a guard and there’s a good old Earniel

Arm in arm we’ll walk at daybreak

Again I’ll post the green, green threads of the moot

Yes they’ll all come to see me arms reaching smiling sweetly

As they join me on the green, green threads of the moot

Midge · 05-21-2010, 01:49 PM

What a great way to start a 'Moot summer! A trial, popcorn throwing...

*ahh,* this is the life!

The last sane person · 05-21-2010, 08:01 PM

Your dog attempted to pee on you? I know male dogs do that, as they are more capable of projectile pissing, but your female dog attempted to pee on you?!

Wow, one weird mutt for sure!

**Mari** · 05-22-2010, 09:58 AM

I fell down in church yesterday and have this lovely huge bruise to show for it.

katya · 05-22-2010, 10:06 AM

I fell down lots of times playing games in gym class yesterday and I have a bruise too. We match.

**Mari** · 05-22-2010, 12:05 PM

Yay! ^_^
The wedding yesterday was wonderful by the way. Partied from 2 PM to 2 AM.

katya · 05-22-2010, 12:24 PM

Weddings are fun! Gym class was fun too but I am ridiculously sore. I am going to lay around and read all day.
