molto veloce mama  9311   |  Subject: for the tolkien geeks out there (tests involved)last night, after a year of starting, restarting, rereading, etc. i finally FINALLY finished my first reading of 'the silmarilion'!! now i feel like i am a true tolkien geek. and, of course, there's a quiz to go along with this post! ha hahha haaaa. The Silmarilion Quiz http://selectsmart.com/FREE/select.php?client=grugrigru well, spank my nerdy *ss! i got #1 Luthien Tinuviel (aka, most beautiful elf ever! and #2 Mithrandir (Gandalf!) The Ultimate Silmarillion Quiz! http://www.allthetests.com/quiz05/dasquiztd.php3?testid=1054603761&... You have 10 from 15 questions correct. Wow! You’re not far away from being a great Tolkien scholar! not as good as i would have hoped, but the names DO get confusing! btw, ok cupid, one of the quiz websites, crashed last night. i think i'm to blame  |

Although I had tried translting the "5th Battle" into Sindarin. From The Silmarilion Quiz, I am #1. Eärendil - lover of the sea (that's why my strength in triathlon is swimming), Elrond's father. # 2. Elendil - Isildur's father. Forged the LAst Alliance of the Elves and Men against Sauron and was slain in the battle filed, leaving behind the sword. |

molto veloce mama 9311 | Subject: RE: for the tolkien geeks out there (tests involved) those are both good answers. ella wants to learn elvish. she's watched the animated 'hobbit' (commonly refered to around here as 'disco hobbit' because of the soundtrack) and has watched parts of the peter jackson movies. she's too young for the scary stuff and the orcs, but she loves the happy hobbit parts (bilbo's birthday), anything with arwen or galadriel, and all the behind the scenes stuff - especially the make up effect and costumes. i even made her a galadriel dress last year. i just realized your avater isn't a lion. its a liger, isn't it!?  |
