Thanks TGEW!

I love so many tites, new and old, that I wouldn't even try to list them. Basically all...

My favourites are still things like Alive without Breath and Drummer in the Deep which are both spooky and Tolkien-y.

I noticed today that skip has one - is that also new? I rather like it too, and I don't remember it from before... but then again maybe he just didn't post for a while...

Honestly, though, I'd have to list most of the Downers with titles if I was to name all the ones I like.

More observant than me - I just dug up this thread because I noticed Skips fabulous title. Only conclusion being that Skip needs to post more!

Poor Tom
Social interaction must pose problems for mercantile bots. I fear that The cat may have been too verbose to suit succinct tom.

Thank you much Boromir! Back in '99 when I found Barrow Downs with my EZBoard global account, I was Snowdog living in the high mountains of Washington State. I have since moved well south and west of there. This place, and two others are the only remaining vestige of my old Snowdog moniker. The rest have long since fell into ruin.

Trying it out here for the first time... thank you! I kind of feel like it's cheating just to translate my screenname, but it was the only thing I found that I felt comfortable with.

(I looked at "Shadowed by Great Wings", but it turns out that's not a Tolkien construction - it comes from Warhammer 40K, which is a bit far afield!)
