If you read HP you can see a few parrallels to LOTR but I realy could care less weather or not she was inspired by Tolkien.

No matter rain or shine, J.K. Rowling was inspired by Tolkien. Or perhaps she was inspired by Tolkien because it was raining. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Isn't it obvious that a sow and a hen are forever in a school where there is no oneness? At least that's how I read it...

I would like to *steel* his lens so he couldn't see anything anymore
(refering to the Eye of Sauron)

If there's electricity going through his Eye, then why not *pout* a great load of water on it

How ammuzing
That's what I thought! Sort of.

Sorry, but chatspeak is not really what we're looking for on this thread. I repeat:

New forum members frequently use chatspeak when they first post and then realize that we are more careful with our spelling, capitals and grammar here.

I'm not sure whether this counts as a typo, but it was far too hilarious to ignore.

You don't have to be close to tell. Huorns are always Huorny.
