A year on TORN...	Can't Post

as of today, I've been a member of TORN for a year. Has it really been that long? Time flies when you're having fun! I'll be celebrating by watching DoS, since I finally got a delivery notice in the mail today (I would have got it yesterday but the Easter mail must of delayed it by a day). It's not that much later than when I pre-order at my local bookstore, and not quite as late if I would have pre-ordered it on eBay (that would have taken up to two weeks). Since I have no idea how to make mathoms (or have the computer to support those kind of programs) feel free to post any mathoms of either Thorin or Armitage (since I'm a fan of both the character and the actor, unlike my PotC favorites, which hardly ever cross over into real life. I guess that means I'm more of a Tolkien fan). Smile

Far over the Misty Mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away, ere break of day
To find our long-forgotten gold.

Woohoo! Congratulations! [In reply to]	Can't Post

We were SO LUCKY you hit "Post Reply" that day!!! *high five*

And here's a little tribute just for you :)

The King comes to his Mountain,
A worm sits on his throne.
When hidden doors won't open
He futilely bemoans

But Hobbits don't give up
And reasons out the clues;
He finds the secret entry
And gives the King his dues.

Thorin... worthy leader
Lover of his realm,
Fights with family honour
Passions overwhelm.

I am SMAUG! I kill when I wish! I am strong, strong, STRONG!
My armor is like tenfold shields! My teeth like swords! My claws, spears!

All hail the Queen! [In reply to]	Can't Post

Wishing you many happy hours of watching DOS (pausing and replaying all those special key scenes of course! Cool

)

"Richard Armitage�s performance has been one of the best things about the new trilogy, making you believe that a hairy dwarf, so often the comedy element of the LOTR films, can be a heroic, tortured, and dangerous badass." - Den of Geek, The Hobbit: There & Back Again, 7 Apr 2014 - 07:07

Happy TORniversary, Queenie! :-) [In reply to]	Can't Post

It's been lovely having you here. Did you enjoy watching DOS at home? I have trouble watching it in one nonstop session (kids!!!) but it sure is nice having it here now.

Many happy returns of the day!
