I have only three MAJOR LOTR fans as friends....Everyone else thinks it's stupid and "lame" and a waste of time to watch it and read the books.....People think I'm crazy cuz I'm reading the books....They thinks it's SOO many pages. I have the 1 volume edition and it's only 1008 pages not including Appendixes and maps and stuff. But I have three LOTR friends.....That's it....Depressing....Hey you people who don't have many LOTR fans: IM ME!!!! big grin I need more people to talk to about LOTR stuff! And Pippin! laughing out loud

azszhz
well i'm Lotr lonely to (meaning without the friends) so if ever you wont to talk you can IM me. and we can talk about the greatness of merry and pippin, cuz i like merry and you like pippin.

yeah i have a friend to talk to lotr about (i think)
*does happy dance again* Happy Dance Happy Dance
