I dont know if anyone else out there is like me, but when Im bored and start reading the Silmarillion or LotR for the bizillionith time, I get ideas of things I would like to do, does anyone else get that too? Anyways, I just did this thread to see if anyone else is as crazy as me...so here are the things I am thinking of...

Monopoly - Hobbit Edition - I have been studying the map of the Shire in LotR, and I am making a Monopoly version of it...I dont know if there is a LotR Monopoly out yet...but if not...I think my idea is pretty cool...

Fifth Battle Quiz - I have been trying to write a quiz for the Barrow Downs about the fifth battle...which is harder than one would think...the questions arnt that hard...but trying to find 3 wrong answers that sound like they could possible be right is hard...

The Full Family Tree - After studying the family Trees at the back of the Sil and the lists of kings of Numenor, Gondor, Arnor and Rohan I realized that you could make one giant family tree with the ancestors of Elwing and Earendil all the way down to Aragorn and Faramir...so I am trying to do that...

The Lay of Luthien - I am not much of a poet, but I really wanted to read the full Lay of Luthien as only 2 parts of it are in the Sil (are there any more parts in HoME?) and I guessed that Tolkien did not actually write all of it, just those two parts in the Sil, so I decided to try to write the full Lay of Luthien with everything that happens in the chapter "Of Beren and Luthien" in the Sil (Is there any more info in the Sil?)

Any things you are working on? Or am I just a sad and pathetic person?

PS...Just when I have a bunch of stuff to discuss about the movies...the movie forums go down...I think Eru is out to get me..
