1420! Welcome!

Welcome Elemmírë to the downs! And welcome back ruts! I will also have to think of a gruesome, yet honarable, death for myself.

Hello everybody!
I've always enjoyed the Barrow-Downs name translator, and since I always accessed it through Google, I only found out recently that there was a site attached to it!

As you can see, I'm a Muppets fan, but my love for Lord of the Rings far outstrips the Muppets any day. I also enjoy fantasy books, listening to music (I like movie soundtracks, o.a.r., Guster, Coldplay, and Evanescense), and writing.

It's great to be dead. I think that's such a great idea.

I was going to do something a little more Elvish for my user name, but then I couldn't think of anything.

Come not my dead Frog, what is more elvish than a muppet...that would make an interesting crossover come to think of it.

I was wondering what was your favourite movie soundtrack? I love soundtracks.

Oh, and I love your Signature as well, fo shizzle.

Welcome to the 'Downs, Kermit the Frog! It must be nice to be a Muppet. Nothing to worry about, and all the Muppet puppeteers to hang around with!

Encaitare is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
Elemmírë -- I love Frost's poem, "Some say the world will end in fire, some say in ice..." Now there is one worth memorizing. As for the Lay of Leithian... I know the first two verses of the one Aragorn recites in the book. It would be an amazing feat to learn the way long version in the Lays of Beleriand!

Welcome, Kermit. Great name!

Miss Piggy as Arwen, or maybe Galadriel!

Welcome Kermit! Enjoy being dead, and enjoy the downs!

Hello everyone!

I'm so glad I've found this forum - so far it looks very cool. I'm only a very recent LotR convert - just finished my first reading of the books a few weeks ago, so I've obviously got a way to go before I can become as learned as everyone else here!

Anyhow, I feel very honoured to have died here, and I hope to remain dead for quite a while yet!

Thanks very much! I got third place for it in a contest on another site, The Council of Elrond.

My favourite soundtrack is... oh that's a tough one. I'd have to say Pirates of the Caribbean. Nice and piraty.

Kermit as Frodo? No... Aragorn? Er... we'll get back to that one.

Fozzie would make a great Gandalf, though.

And I'm really convinced Miss Piggy would make a great Galadriel. Especially the psycho scene! Not sure about her as Eowyn, though . . . hmm . . . who are the other females in the muppets? It's been awhile!

I don't believe there were other females. Just like there was only one female smirf.

Welcome Tamarisk, Atarah, Ilmare, Athelas and Lucien Tindomiel! Enjoy being dead! Enjoy the downs!
