General stance on Jackson's LOTR: Loved it as a way for me to visualize some of what happened in the books. Some things really irk me, but I still think they're great movies.
Description:
So I've been here for quite some time, but as you can see from my relatively low post count- I mostly lurk. I've come out of the shadows from time to time, but not that often. I originally was checking out Ringbearer.com for LotR movie news. But my favorite people I soon learned weren't actual Ringbearer members- they were invading due to TORC being down. I remember Mr. bunny and Whistler especially. Whistler started a hilarious thread about Gandalf's death I believe? Oh man, those Ringbearers were so mad at him, but I thought he was the best ever. That made me check out TORC. I also convinced my mother, theduffster, to check it out. That's probably been my best contribution to TORC.

I checked out all the forums, but was continually drawn back here to m00bies. Since then I can recall many crazy adventures including speculation on Whistler's Mysterious Post, many of the theme months, judging MOME, and being dragged into the Aunties thread over in Talk. There was talk of abducting theduffster and I, so I had to check it out to see what it was all about.
Back at the beginning of 2004, duffster and I decided to go to the Philly m00t. She told me she'd pay for a PM for 3 months if I hit 1,000 posts. That meant I needed somewhere around 400 more. I began posting a bit more, but of course, most people still weren't aware of who I was. But that changed with my tremendous amount of flirting during the...TORCies I believe? Anyway, that got me noticed for a short while, at least. Marty never did have my babies, but I somehow managed to post some insane amount in a short time.
Meeting TORCers in Philly was great fun that should be repeated. I met some fabulous people. And I talked to Ethel on the phone, but the first thing she said to me was "Rebecca! You slut!" Hmmm. Us Philly m00ters planned an April Fool's joke that was never allowed to reach fruition. In the course of that thread, Lidless said "BTW – Marty? Rebecca tastes like sweet honey." Hmmm again.
There’s been great times and great memories. I miss posting here, but I just find that I don’t have much to say any more. But it’s wonderful to see so many familiar faces here in this thread.
