Thanks for the book-tips Vanya. I´ll look for that title...Actually there is a scandinavian god in The Hitchhikers Guide... You remember Thor at the endless party??
And Ethatius (oh, 19 like me!), I´m new here too, but it seems like a good place. Welcome!!

Actually, Etharius, most people here do care, and I think the weather is geting to you. Anybody would!! But seriously, I hope that you find that there is a vast variety of topics in the forumns, and I hope you find a place in our community!
Hello to all the other newbies too!!

To Gothmog: Guide is one of my favorite books, I laugh loud when I red it!
And as a new member ( for whom the most importan rule is to read more and write less) I can say that this place has nice atmosphere, but there is a huge problem: it is very hard to post, since people alredy wrote everything or almost everything there is to say about Tolkien. The newcomers can mostly read previous threads if they don't want to repeat someone else's posts. Maybe it's time to form few new sections, like other literature, history, philosophy, art, mythology, etc. I think that members have to say a lot on other topics too. Of course, focus should be on Tolkien and fantasy. |

Well, I'm back...
Hello all...
I've returned following a lengthy absence. My reasoning for leaving was very close to what was posted above, namely that it seems everything's been covered here. But, I'm back on a mythology kick (inspired by Quentin Tarantino's KILL BILL saga, of all things), so I thought I'd return to my roots a bit. Oh, and I went by Greyhame my first time around, in case anyone remembers... Anyway, I've finished school since then, have gotten married, and I'm preparing for a year in the employ of the Central Illinois Red Cross in the disaster response department. I'm currently reading the Letters, and so am very intrigued by Fordim's historia thread in Books. Tolkien's philology interests me, but since I am a poor student of language, it's the mythology he built around his languages that fascinates me most. Well, there's one post at least.

Welcome all newcomers!!
Yes, I think I do remember you as Greyhame, Bloody Glamdring. Congratulations on your marriage. I hope your spouse enjoys LOTR too... Terry Pratchett is, IMHO, even funnier than Douglas Adams, and I consider the Hitchhiker's guide to be hilarious. Anyone who likes Adams will probably like Pratchett and vice versa. Cheers, ~ Elentari II
