at least I read all of them, I even read The Silmarillion (sp?) before
deciding that these were books that were never going to be on my "to be
re-read" list
I remember, from the animated Hobbit, the face of Frodo, and Gollum saying
over and over "MY Precioussssss" and "SNEAKING!"
it sometimes amazes me what I can dredge up from the depths of the black
hole I call my memory... I haven't seen that in at least 20 years, and I
haven't read the books in longer than that. And no, I'm not going to try to
read them again now to see if they are better than I remember. Too much to
read, too little time to read it in
