Hmmm... Should I go humorous? That could encorporate the fact that I would look JUST LIKE a hobbit if I wasn't so tall. Any suggestions?

I needed help when designing my BD name. Didn't realize it couldn't be changed! For an epitaph I could list all of my names, even the one my parents gave me. That could be cool!

My future epitaph: “Farewell, a long farewell, to all my greatness!” (Shakespeare)

Brilliant! I never cease to amaze myself!!!

Let me see... what could I put for mine...
Ok this isn't original but it is all I could think of.

Front side: How to keep an idiot entertained for hours, see other side.

Back side: How to keep an idiot entertained for hours, see other side.

Ok now I am going to be mean to one of my favorite characters: Elrond!

Here I lie in the dirt.
You know death really hurts.
My daughter married a morron.
Now I have nothing to bang my head on.
I was immortal, now I am dead.
So everything is almost done and said.
Please go away I have no simpathy for you.
Just wait Mr Anderson I'll come back, I always do.

Ok I got a little carried away. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Elves are immortal we don't need an epitaph!

Oh, here goes...

Faenaduial
Her heart and thoughts will
remain forever, dancing under
the tall trees of Mirkwood.

I also think my sig would make a good epitaph.

Oooh, nice topic Meela!!

Let's see...well I have so many ideas for my own epitaph...how about....

"Traveller, at last I'm found,
And here I'm lying underground,
But do not cry, t'would be unfair,
For when I was live you did not care..."

I know, that's a bit depressing, so now something completely different...I think it would be so nice to see this as an epitaph...

"See ya! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] " Complete with smiley face.

As for Lord of the Rings characters...

Legolas:

"Killed by Rabid Fangirls...died happy..."

Gandalf:

"Three hundred lives of men I walked this earth and now I'm out of time."

I finally thought of a good one for me. I'm always fantasizing about what would happen if I died young, so here's what would go on my tombstone. (It's a paraphrase of a quote from the Silm, and yes, I know that I'm morbid.)

No other of the Children of Iluvatar
has had joy so great,
though the time was brief.

I wasn't sure whether I should post this on here or on "top ten signs your addicted to the 'downs" so here goes:

The oddest thing happened last night. I was in bed almost asleep when I got up and went to my desk. I produced a pen and paper and scribbled down:
"sept.13,2003 www.barrowdowns.com
username:elfearz1
password: (then I wrote my password of course)

If ever I die
log on to say goodbye"

Even while I was writing this I had no idea why! Maybe it had something to do with reading this thread a few hours earlier, but it is still very strange indeed!

her life's a sad story this lover of art
that one should die of a broken heart
