Wow. I think he can do it, folks. I really, really, am starting to think he can really do it!


(for someone who hates to get her hopes up as much as I do, that's a big deal, folks.)

So I just joined [livejournal.com profile] johnxjohn. Plenty of room in that Democrat Bad Place, folks! But there is not a slash America and a het America, there is the United States of America!


In other news, happy golden birthday to The Fellowship of the Ring, published July 29, 1954......



....for those out there still wondering why LOTR fen got so damn snippy about friggin' SPOILER WARNINGS.

Eee! I'm trying to imagine what that would be like (like waiting for the next Harry Potter book, I guess, a little bit, but at least those don't end on such nasty cliffhangers).

I don't go back that far, but I remember reading my dad's old copies in the basement - the Ballantine ones, with Tolkien's own watercolors on the cover and that little screed about Ace. I loved the fact that Bored of the Rings parodied that as well.
