<BR> Time difference !!!!</b><br><br> 4:29 AM!!!!! No wonder I never figured the time difference b/w the posts here and the American posts. I never noticed the AM/PM bit all these days. Oh and THAT is why we're practically always a day ahead. Coz America is almost 12 hours behind us. Lord, I get more absentminded by the day. <p>Not all those who wander are lost.</p>

<BR><br><br> Yeah, you know I've never chatted on Barrowdowns! Because I never have company.<br> By the way, I LOVE the way my lovely nick has gone from 'the Lorien wanderer' to 'wanderer' and now finally to TLW. <p>Not all those who wander are lost.</p>

<BR><br><br> But I kinda like it,. Ok, maybe just think of a name as a &quot;meaningful pause&quot;. where you just pause in silence, instead of not refering to someone at all. <p></p>

<BR><br><br> So am I TLW or a meaningful pause or a meaningful person or a meaningful pause for TLW or the Wandering Lorien? Got any of that? I think my written words are even more incoherent than when I speak, which is unintelligible enough at times.<br> <br> So anyway, I advise you to stick with TLW. And I'll stick with Z and e, my philosophical friends. <p>Not all those who wander are lost.</p>

Not that it has anything to do with the topic, but did you know prepone isn't in the dictionary either?<br> I got that e. What I meant was, so I'm known as *meaningful pause for TLW*. I guess I forgot the 'known' huh? I quite agree with the initials suggestion. But I don't mind being addressed as by HR. <p>Not all those who wander are lost.</p>

<BR><br><br> The whole meaningful pause thing reminds me of the artist formerly known as Prince who didn't want to be known as &quot;the artist formerly known as Prince.&quot; Did anyone else get that feeling?<br> <br> Q: why is abbreviation such a long word? <br> <br> And when was the last post that was actually about LOTR? Not that I mind, I love going off on tanget after tangent. <p><i>The days are fated to be filled with marvels.</i></p>
