Very rude the Glorious Dead, what about me : Am I the only frenchman on the board?

Am I only the only person living in Singapore?

I'm just a bit surprised. On every other board I've ever gone too there's been a large number of Canadians.

For when the swine repent their sins I shall be there, ready to pass my almighty judgement upon their accursed souls. I am the reaper divine, I eat the hearts of the damned! Beware, ye of little faith in my majesty, for I shall rule this pitiful world. You are mine, bow down.</p>

Re: The Downs -- an international board

Well I think I'm the first person to post from England so far. <img src=biggrin.gif ALT=""> I'm originally Welsh, but I live in Derbyshire now.

I wondered where most people here were based, as the time on the clock (for posts) is way off the time here - whose time is it?

I got into Tolkien (well, LotR really) when I was 9 or 10, then lost touch for ages. I've recently rediscovered my enthusiasm for the books, and am re-reading avidly.

It's nice to see so many nationalities here - and to echo what someone else said, you all have such great English!

Seems not many Americans are checking in on this question. I'm from Seattle in the state of Washington and I first read the books at age 32. But that was almost forty years ago, back around '62 or '63.

Re: The Downs -- an international board

I'm an American, pero estoy estudiando en España ahora. <img src=smile.gif ALT="">
I've been reading Tolkien for several years now, though I just finished the Sil this year.
<blockquote>Quote:<hr> One downside of the German version is that too many things are translated; mainly the names of the hobbits which according to JRRT should better have been left unchanged to preserve their Englishness. <hr></blockquote>
I also found that slightly annoying/confusing when I bought the Spanish translation of the Fellowship, but it is also a good way to learn more about both languages. For instance, I didn't realize what the Shire really meant until I saw it translated as Comarca, which means neighbourhood. Then it clicked with all those -shire suffixes that England has!

Re: The Downs -- an international board

But isn't Shire more specifically in relation to the country? (Or rather, it used to be - these days there are large cities in English -shires.) In West Australia, at any rate, a local government district can be called &quot;city of&quot;, &quot;town of&quot; or if it's in the country &quot;shire of&quot;. (For example: City of Perth, Town of Vincent, Shire of Goomalling.)

Alabama, USA!

Board to death in High School 24 years ago, as a freshman I saw a junior reading Fellowship of the Ring and was first of all surprised he was reading...

I got curious. Read the Lord of the Rings, then went back and got the Hobbit!

Re: international board?

I'm from Nebraska, started reading &quot;The Hobbit&quot; in 7th grade because it was required. Didn't read any more of it till my senior year in highschool. But i loved it so much i got LOTR and The Silmarilian and read them about 8 or 9 times now. Recently i purchaced other books like UT and books by other authors describing Tolkien related stuff. So i guess i started a year and a half ago. Reading them nonstop that is.

Since everyone taht has been in the chat has asked me once or twice for that matter where Im from, I shall put it in stone so to speak. Currently I am living on Long Island which is to the east of New York City, only a half hour train ride (only that long because of the stops to Penn.) And to any of you that think Lawn Guylanders have a strange accent (I couldnt resist <img src=smile.gif ALT=""> ) I have a mild english accent. My father was English, but that doesnt much account for anything. I was born in Kentucky, and was moved to NY when I was about a month old, so I have no memories of teh Ohio River, or any bluegrass (even though there is a patch of it on my front lawn <img src=wink.gif ALT=""> ) And the rest of my origins lie shrouded in mystery.

“I have been a fierce bull and a yellow buck. I have been a boat upon the sea. I have been the foam of water. I have been a drop in the air. I have journeyed as high as an eagle. I have been at the throne of the distributor. I have stood high upon the white hill. I was fluent before being gifted with speech. I have been teacher to all intelligences. I have singly built the tower of Nimrhod. I am the tetragrammaton. I am a wonder whose origin is not know, and I shall be until the day of doom upon the earth…” -=I may be found merrymaking at <a href=http://www.barrowdowns.com/>The Barrow Downs</a> or telling stories at <a href=http://pub58.ezboard.com/bsuldalskeep>Sûldal's Keep</a> </p>

HerenIstarion is Asian, too.
He even is from the only Asian country which starts with a 'G' (something which caused me to rofl when someone on a TV quiz show, being asked the question which Asian country alone starts with a g, said, after some pondering, 'China!')

Well, I'm from Ohio, and I first read the Hobbit in 6th grade. The next year, I read all the LOTR books, and the Silmarillion. In 8th grade, i had to read the Hobbit for English class, and I reentered into ME. When I read it in 8th grade, I was stuck for good. I started learning Quenya (which I still am), reread all of LOTR, read Sil, and started the HoME series. I'm now in 9th grade, and I've reread Sil, and I'm still trying to get enough money to buy the rest of the HoME. that's about it <img src=smile.gif ALT="">

I am not certain we may put it so strictly. Georgia lies indeed between Asia and Europe. little bit to the Norht is Russia's European part, little bit to the South Turkey - Asia Minor. Culturally and spiritually we may be linked more with the Eastern orthodox Christian states such as was Bizantium and now is Russia, historically with the Middle East as a whole, with Sasanide Persia and Arab Caliphate etc. But if you ask any given georgian in the street does he think himself asian or european, answer would certainly be the latter.

Bay Area, California. The only bad thing about living here is that everything costs alot of money and there is bad traffic. Otherwise, there is a little bit of everything to do and always nice weather.

I read The Hobbit and LOTR about a year ago and have been re-reading them alot. I didn't even know there was going to be a movie..

Greetings from Orlando, Florida. Reading all these posts makes me realize what a SMALL WORLD we live in (groan).

Telchar - Denmark rocks, man. I passed through there about ten years ago. I grew up on stories of Hans Christian Anderson (probably one of the reasons I love Tolkien's works so much) and had to make a mandatory pilgramage.

Got my picture of the Little Mermaid statue. The HCA museum was a bit of a disappointment though. I'd like to go back and visit Odense and Legoland.

Later all. SEE YOU REAL SOON! (groan)

<img src="http://www.barrowdowns.com/images/posticons/vilya.jpg" align=absmiddle> Hi, y'all!

I have lived in Texas most of my life, though I lived in Europe for four years right after high school. Right now I live in Corpus Christi, Texas, near the beach <img src=cool.gif ALT="8)"> . I first read The Hobbit and then Lord of the Rings when I was 11 or 12; The Silmarillion was released just as I finished Return of the King, so I read that, too. I have also read The Adventures of Tom Bombadill, Smith of Wooten Major, On Faerie Stories (I hope I got those titles right, it's been a while), Unfinished Tales, and Morgoth's Ring (HoME #10). Other books by different authors I really like include The Once and Future King by E.B. White, the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice (especially Memnoch the Devil), and Colleen McCullough's series on the Roman Republic (First Man in Rome, The Grass Crown, etc.). Before I read Tolkien, I read all the Narnia books by C.S. Lewis. Any of you younger elves and hobbits who haven't read them yet should really check 'em out <img src=wink.gif ALT=""> .


"Long Beren lay, and his spirit wandered upon the dark borders of death, knowing ever an anguish that pursued him from dream to dream. Then suddenly, when her hope was almost spent, he woke again, and looked up, seeing leaves against the sky; and he heard beneath the leaves singing soft and slow beside him Luthien Tinuviel. And it was spring again."</p>

Originally, Santa Cruz, California. Great climate, veeeeery expensive. Moved to Seattle, Washington, worked 10 years at the University of Washington as the Slavic, East European and Central Asian Specialist. Am now gardening in Idaho, land of the potato.

Read The Hobbit at 12, LOTR at 13 (a dozen times), went about daydreaming of new themes for Frodo, then added new characters from the present with modern weapons to blow away Balrogs. Envision my characters solving riddles at Elrond's Council, even to this day.

Listened to the music on the radio of 1973-1980 while re-reading LOTR. That music still makes me misty. If you don't listen to the radio while reading LOTR, try it!

As some of you probably already know, I live in a Greek village called Aghia Triada (=Holy Trinity), about 25 kilometres from Thessaloniki. But I was born in Yorkshire, England.
I first read Tolkien at the age of 12 or so when I saw my classmates reading the Hobbit.
Whenever I travel around Northern Greece I'm amazed at how Tolkienesque the landscape is.
