I had no idea there were Nimoy videos.
Thank you.
Is there one for "If I had a Hammer"?

When is "reality" TV going to start an RPG because that may be watchable (for a few episodes anyway).

It's a picture of where hobbits live, Inspektor. In reference to my previous live-in-a-burrow post. Try to stay on the trolly, dude.

Clurg said...

That's right, there were trolls in The Hobbit.

Man, if there's one fictional character I'd like to meet, it's Gandalf. I'd like to go on a long springtime walk with him and discuss the mysteries of the universe and find out how much he really knows.

Say "no" if he asks you if you want to see his "magic wand."

oh, Kelly, Where's your sense of adventure? Or should I say experimentation?

The Road goes ever on and on
Out from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
Let others follow it who can!
Let them a journey new begin,
But I at last with weary feet
Will turn towards the lighted inn,
My evening-rest and sleep to meet.

putting it in context - i am going home in 5 days.

my room has been turned into a spare guest room (urgh) and my cupboards have been...

but i still will sleep better there... does this happen to everyone?

My stepdad told me he'd sold my childhood home the same day he gave me the piled up grad school rejections from all four schools I'd applied to.

neha said...

oh my goodness!!! that sounds very unkind, is it?


my room is turned into a guest room becoz my parents cant help having people over!! and mum doesnt know what goes where when she tries to get the room back to it's original shape - I end up losing some really important things!!

neha said...

you ok dave?

whatever you going thru - good bad ugly - this too shall pass away...

Don't worry, Tom wasn't being unkind,that was just how it fell out.

All this happened four years ago, and gave me the fodder to write a non-fiction piece that won a St. Olaf Award. I'm glad he sold the house. It haunted him, I think.
