		Well, I'm not "outta-the-box" new... but I haven't logged on in MONTHS. I hail from Chico, Cal... and I'm looking for a fellow Downs-er who is also from Chico. Unfortunately, I forgot her login...  |

		IMO- Boromir dies so to further endear him to us. Would we have forgiven him as fully if he still lived, instead of dying nobly while trying to protect Merry and Pippin? With his death, he restored...  |

		Well, I am not nearly as cool as most of you guys! I don't know Elvish, let alone all the different dialecs I've been seeing! I'm very hobbit-like, and I just made up "Brionna," thinking that it...  |

		So here's a question from a less versed LoTR fan. Do hobbits (or Men of ME for that matter) believe in an after-life? I know right now we're debating on whether the Ringbearers actually passed or...  |
