Peter Jackson's interpretation of LOTR was better than I could have ever imagined it would be. You've confirmed what I've already heard about the Hobbit, SO disappointing to me. He should have stuck to the book, made it in one movie and kept his integrity. Now he looks like he's just after the money. Thank goodness we still have the book written exactly as Tolkien wanted the story to be told.<br /><br />On a side note, LOVE the painted toenails story, embarrassing man moment, great dad moment :)Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01341233630137969987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-106418510267458618.post-441971743496732432013-01-05T10:51:16.382-08:002013-01-05T10:51:16.382-08:00John, nice one!

You....Radagast?.....looking at your posts I think you may be right! :)<br />I did wonder how you found time to do so many posts, and now I see why. Although I love the posts, life has to come first. Hope you get chance to do the 'questions thing' I posted. Take care.Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08255717931620460104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-106418510267458618.post-57359378834652978312013-01-05T08:47:55.446-08:002013-01-05T08:47:55.446-08:00Hi Gary!

I'm reading something right now from Tolkiens memoirs called "The Untold Tales" or something like this and it's more helpful background information to enrich the general stories even more. I like them because they have nature as a powerful and central focus in the stories....but obviously there are deeper revelations in his storytelling as well....but yeah...it's powerful stuff. <br /><br />I have been so busy with outdoors stuff that I had to put this blogger thing to the side because my big thing is.....life comes first:) And I promised myself to not keep up with such a rigid posting habit. <br /><br />If I were a LOTR character, I would be Radagast, the Brown Wizard sans the bird crap in the hair:) Happy New Year!Rohrerbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02136631378931478644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-106418510267458618.post-88910691616842152932013-01-05T02:04:58.269-08:002013-01-05T02:04:58.269-08:00Hi Adrian,
