Name: Press 1 for my real name (Michael A. Joosten), Press 2 for my 'Downer name (Formendacil), Press 3 for my nickname of the Month (Weredacil)
Quest: To get to Heaven, preferably taking the route of a long and happy life. And to write a book.
Favourite colour: Green. Beautiful, spring green. Or Black. Black is awesome.
Most beloved Tolkien character: Gandalf and/or Turin Turambar
Least beloved Tolkien character: Saeros
Worst habit: Finger-biting. Not nail-biting, but biting off bits of dry skin around the nails...
Best habit: Showering.
Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Don't have one. But if you want me to pick an actor of the opposite gender who's work I generally admire, then I pick... Dame Maggie Smith.
Weirdest hobby: Playing with LEGO. That's right, not just building with it, but playing with it.
Best place in Middle Earth: Minas Tirith
Best place outside of Middle Earth: Roma, Italia. Loved it there.
Most embarrassing moment: Getting on the wrong school bus in Grade 1. Still upsets my stomach thinking about it.
Most daring moment: Good question... I'm not really that daring. I'll have to plead the Fifth here (ashamed though I am of using a phrase based on the American Constitution.
)
Favourite "LotR" actor: Ian McKellan and Sean Bean. They both played the roles exactly as I imagined.
Least favourite "LotR" actor: Huge Weaving. Great actor, but 100% un-Elrond.
Theme song: Pachebel's Canon.
Style guru: Any well-dressed, older-fashioned man from the 1930s.
Most crucial accessory: Watch. I like to know the time.
Greatest weakness: Self-indulgent.
Greatest strength: I could not care less about money. (Yes, I know that doesn't quite seem to jive with my last answer. But it does work. Somehow.)
Favourite place to visit on the Downs: CbC. Don't always think of anything to post, but I find the discussions there to be the most intelligent and Tolkien-related ones on the site.
Best Downer Buddy: Now that would be telling.... Can't say that I have a specific 'Downer buddy who beats them all. But I chat/PM with
Lhuna more than a little- and share some similar worldviews. Put her down as the answer of the month.
Parting shot: Veni, vidi, vici.
