"Faragorn". A mix between Faramir, Fangorn, and Aragorn, perhaps? I can see it now... a great, kind, powerful, merciful, loving, slow-talking, patient... tree.

Who also happens to be the King of Gondor.

On the last time I watched RotK I misheard one thing with the result that Gandalf got a new, very dreaded foe - The Bitch King of Angmar!

Arareiel, how may your cousins be 'ex'? I mean, wife or husband can be ex, (or girlfriend, for that matter, *sigh), but cousins? I mean, even if it was your uncle who was divourced with your aunt (suppose?), cousins remain cousins?

I will stand corrected, of course, if the matter is more complicated than I see it

Perhaps they were cousins by marriage (step-cousins), but the marriage didn't last, therefore those who were cousins, no longer are. I've got a situation like that.

However, if it doesn't apply to hearing weird ME-related things, please deal with it in PMs. Thanks.

And Steward of Ithlien, with... three wives.

Well I had been watching FOTR with my friend and he had to go so when he came bak I asked him where we left off. And he said "Where Gollum died." I said "Gollum?" he goes "Yeah you know Gollum the guy with the grey cloak and hat, jeez it's you're favorite movie and you don't even know who one of the chief charactors is!" of course I corrected him now he refuses to listen to any LOTR rantings I have

Sorry, I'll try to keep it Tolkien related from now on

You are all aware of Saruman's famed line "Do you know how orcs first came into being?"... well, that line has now become "Do you know how ox first came into being?" in the world of Fea's Hearing. I also thought for a moment I heard Gimli exclaim "Ack! Pork blood." when sampling a bit from a leaf in Fangorn. Amazing how accents can mar the word 'orc', is it not?

I'm fairly certain that's just another stereotype of the Dwarve's roots in the Jewish religion, why else would he be offended by pork blood?

I always thought movie Boro said at the Council of Elrond: 'Not with 10,000 men couldn't even do this...' and just thought the scriptwriters accidentally wrote in a double negative.

But after putting on CC I realised it was 'Not with 10,000 men could you even do this...'

But my favourite was Eowyn in TTT talking about the wildmen...now she says: 'the wildmen burn as they go, rick, cot, and tree.'

I thought she said 'Rick Cottontree' and came up with an imagination of who this 'Rick' guy was and of course set him on fire in my head.
