I should probably specify that I do not automatically fall a sleep, when I come into contact with a LotR audiobook. Rather i put on the audiobook wen I go to bed.

I know, but it would be a fun Pavlovian response. "It's a behavioural phenomenon: the subject falls asleep immediately at the sound of text from Tolkien's LOTR! Other texts, even with related contexts, do not elicit the same response from the subject. The text in question is currently being analyzed for its hypnotic properties."

This used to happen to me when I watched the LotR movies because I fell asleep to FotR every night. I couldn't watch any of them for years without going to sleep 15 minutes in.

...you find local politics terribly funny, what with all the candidates explaining how long they've lived in the Shire and how devoted they are to the Shire and how much they're going to do for the Shire if elected, etc.

On that note, you ignore most political issues because he's a Saruman, he's a Saruman, he's just a Grima, and he thinks he's Gandalf but he still lives in Orthanc. They might have good intentions, but then again, so did Saruman.
