Can I join? [In reply to] Can't Post
I don't fit the age group now, but I was 17 when I de-lurked and created a message board account.

It depends on where you live, I guess. Most people in my class days where totally obsessed with LOTR and Tolkien. Most friends from that time that I still keep in touch with are just as big fans as they always were, so no, that has not "faded away" throughout the years. Which is a good thing!

I was eleven-twelve something when I read LOTR. Read The Hobbit the year after.

TORN regulars who's been around here for a while knows which one of them I prefer. Tongue


The greatest adventure is what lies ahead.
