Run, Shadowfax. Show Us the Meaning of Haste!
It's only fair that I mention the old crabby pharmacist again. She was extremely nice to me today, even telling me about her own son who has athsma. I attribute this sudden change in her attitude to my clean living and general good-ness toward most of humankind. Clearly, she can see that snottiness will get her nowhere with me.

Watching the Return of the King DVD, I noticed that Pippin sings what sounds like an Enya song to the steward of Gondor guy. Breathy vocals will get nowhere with me either. The rest of the music is stunning, though. Best Picture, indeed! I think Eowyn is my favorite character in this movie. I never really liked Elijah Wood as Frodo. I tolerated him. Sean Astin does make a great Samwise, though! Viggo might be the overall coolest. But then Sir Ian (is he a Sir? can poofy Brit actors be knighted?) is also fantastic throughout the series.
