"When you find yourself in the company of a halfling and an ill-tempered Dragon, remember, you do not have to outrun the Dragon. You just have to outrun the halfling"

Return of the King was excellent. I want to move to New Zealand (or Middle Earth) and go on an epic quest. And marry an elf, like Legolas. Ok, that was a little random. But the movie was spectucular. Sean Astin (Samwise Gangee) gets my vote for best supporting actor EVER. Orlando Bloom is cutest elf/pirate EVER. They did such a good job. Right now I am re-reading Return of the King, and its amazing how much of the dialog was used exactly as it was written in the book. And Minis Tirith. Exactly how I pictured it. How is that possible?

Of course, I frequently allow my imagination to run a little too wild (this is why my obsessive reading habits, especially the science fiction and fantasy, probably isn't very healthy for me). Last night was kind of a letdown, because instead of going home to a fantasy land with magic, rangers, Ents, and elves, I went home to make a salad for our division's potluck lunch. Today I am sitting in front of my computer thinking about what to code up next.
