LOTR banned!!!!! - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

My physics teacher gets uptight about LOTR, because I always have it with me in school. I don't actually read it in lessons, I just put it front cover-down on the desk, because there's not enough room for it in my bag (hey, it's a big book!). But every lesson he makes me put it on the floor - the floor! My precious book! On the dirty floor!
OK, I admit I am overreacting here just a tiny bit *shifty eyes*, but he's perfectly fine with any other book, and it's not like I've ever even attempted to read it in any of my lessons. I mean, what harm can a book face-down on a desk do?
I bet he would let me leave it there if it was a Bible [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img]
