A few ways to tell if you are obsessed with LOTR

1. you get upset because you cant find the Misty Mountains or Mirkwood on a map.

2.you name a child or pet after a character

3. you throw your wedding ring into the fire to see the runes on it.

4. you are afraid of crows, black horses, and mines of any sort.

5(i got most of these off of the lord of the rings.com, but this is my fave) everytime you ride the merry go round, you find yourself screaming "what news of the north riders of rohan?"

Re: A few ways to tell if you are obsessed with LOTR

Everytime you see a hill you climb all around it looking for hobbit holes.

You call your enemies Sauron.

In a fight with your "Sauron" you throw firecrackers at him.

If you are losing a fight with your "Sauron" you pint up, yell, "The Eagles are coming!" and throw another firecracker in his or her eye.

You live in a hollowed out extinct volcano staring incessantly into a glass paperweight.

You are constructing a massive boat to put your elves on and sail with them to Valinor. (by elves I mean the little garden gnomes you stole from your neighbors)

Re: obsession

Well, it looks very nice. Although I'm not buying those short carriers, the characters used to have vowels over them when no preceding consonant is available. Their said to look like undotted i's, but they don't look that much like them. Look at the Ardalambion Tengwar at the top of this page.

Re: obsession

I've got the fonts Inoldonil, but I am not sure if they will work with a PC. I'll go ahead and send them to you.
