The Adventures of Tom Bombadil is an epic book, i will not stand for bombadil bashing...

Morrisseeee

i will not stand for bombadil bashing...

...lol

me thinks its not the REAL Gandalf, maybe somebody in disguise ! :eek:

Meh, I just skipped all the annoying song bits to get to the good bits, ie the fighting!

Morrisseeee

the fighting!

.....I wouldn't expect anything less from a Sligo man !! he he he.

dakar

I'm sure Queen Maeve and co did their fair share of singing but the good stories were all about the fightin!

Dragan

As a complete aside to all the other complete asides in here....has anyone seen "The Fall"?

This film is......extraordinary. Personally i take a lot of visual inspriations from movies and this is, visually, amazing.

Everything that movies with massive budgets got teams of people to create on computers only this uses actual real world locations and some of the slickest cinematography i have ever seen.

Check it out on IMDB and if you like the look of it then follow up! I am very glad that i did.

davenewt posted an interesting wikipedia link over on the magazine thread with a link to this;

Anyway i picked up the following which I though i'd share with the Out of Focus brigade to see what you thought?

It could be invaluable when heading out on a weekend (or boards meet) so you might like to get a pencil and paper at the ready.

Depending on your persuasion tick off any three (girl) or two(man) traits that you find in your weekend fancy. Then reverse the remaining unticked option.

• The ultimate Girl picker: Single, Sane, Sexy and Smart– Pick any three. (also called The four S's of dating)
  
• The ultimate Man picker: Handsome, High-Earner, Faithful – Pick two.

Ye wimmin have only two traits that you judge us men by apparently - oh you narrow minded femmes.

So the way it works:

if your fella is handsome and a high earner then he'll nay be faithful!
and if your woman is single, sexy, and smart then she has to be insane!

Hmnnn.......

Now - play with that and see do you agree.

Also - I wonder could we do the same for an ultimate DSLR picker???? Suggested traits for a Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Olympus, and Sony.

I wonder which the ladies of the forum would like in the Bedroom, a Nikon or a Canon?

Strangely enough, Sony Alphas are surprisingly popular lately. They choose good owners.

You Never Listen!!!!!!!!!!!

Calina

On a vaguely unrelated topic, seeing as there were a handful of "free to a good home" threads lately, should we look at setting up a "freeloader" thread? Or have you all given away all your free to a good home stuff by now? Cos if it's only occasional...

Dang, I saw "Project Triangle", and thought it would be something cool, like the Philidelphia Experiment or some such, not "A project triangle" (note non-caps!):(

Just got last nights lotto numbers on the early morning news...& guess what....l didn't win...:(

Question: What would you do if you won €4million on the Lotto?

dakar

Easy, 400,000,000 fizzy cola bottles!

dakar

Actually, I'm fairly sure they're not 1c any more so I either need 8m or my childhood dream lies in tatters
