I read them all at once... so I thought I'd comment here... I know, I'm lazy :D
The 'one' thing that I'll probably never forget, was the short about the eagles and their cries at having their wings cut off. I don't think I'll ever get that image out of my head whenever the eagles are mentioned again... *whimpers pitifully*
I had to laugh at the short about Elronds wig.... :D
I loved the ending of Ossiriand, where Romandacil makes the smartass comment “I was hoping they might have been taller,” LOL... like the durn things aren't like 'tall enough'!
I don't know lineage of most individuals in the stories, but who is Feanor's mother? Vaire (I think that's the valars name that weaves)?
"Mirkwood: Not Foaling Around" was sad, but cute too. I could just picture Asfaloth following Glor around like the elf's his mother :D
I loved the whole of the posts, but just wanted to pick out my favorites... :)
Maybe one of these days I'll try reading LoTR again (I tried when I was a teen... but couldn't seem to get interested in the Hobbit... then 'what's his face' made a cartoon out of it and I thought "childrens tale" and never again attempted to read any of it.
A friend for one X-mas gave me the LoTR boxed set... I just smiled and said thanks (I didn't wanna tell him I wasn't interested and make him feel all bad). I'm not even sure if I still have them anymore in all the friggin' boxes I have.
But when I saw PJ's LoTR creations, I thought, ok, maybe I was wrong about Tolkiens Epic...
