33. Just watched it...
...thank goodness for the DVD player on my G4 at work! ROTK looks like it'll be awesome, litterally. Apparently, this new battle scene makes Helm's Deep look puny by comparison.

with a Special Edition. It features additional footage from the cutting room floor. They reported it has a extra hour!

30. Of the candidates for the Democrats,
Kucinich looks much more like and elf or a hobbit than any of the field.

I've got no opinion on whether you look the part, I'll just take your word for it. ;-)

35. I look like a slightly trimmer ...
Edited on Tue Aug-26-03 03:02 PM by dawg
slightly more distinguished (meaning older!) version of Sean Astin, who portrays Sam in the LOTR movies.

While getting my teeth cleaned the hygenist once remarked, "Now I remember who you remind me of ........... Rudy!"

And the feet aren't that big, but they are definitely furry.:hi:

39. Feh on the Two Towers!!!
Though I admit I just bought it too - gawd I'm a conspicuous consumer, and a DVD addict!! (mostly want it for the RotK preview)

But git yer asses out there and pick up the Simpsons Season 3 which is also out today.

Wooo hooooo!!!
