Annoying Amateurs

[Gorwingel]

Anyway, I've been here since November (2003), and I still consider myself to be an amateur.

Heck, I've been here since December of 2002 and still, most definitely, consider myself an amateur.

And I am betting that I will always be an amateur just because I don't have the amazing ability to read through many of Tolkien's works once and instantly know everything about it (And also I get confused while reading The Book of Lost Tales, and have recently been too cheap to go out and buy Unfinished Tales).

But, hey, I'm still young. Most likely if I'm here in thirty years or so I will know everything. I am going by the read the Sil and LOTR (and maybe another Tolkien book) at least once a year kind of thing

And in addition I promise I will ask for The Unfinished Tales for Christmas

And also I have ran into many annoying amateurs. But I don't consider them annoying. I personally believe they are misguided
