Tolkien recognized that, if people were willing to read all the way through volume 4, they were basically committed to whatever he could put out

I'll be mounting my campaign for Regional Overlord

If it makes you feel any better, it's not the nuclear attack that'll get ya. It's the starvation caused by particulate matter blocking out the sun and destroying our food supply! :D

I'm not, like, a fan or anything. I don't own any of her music and can probably name like one song. That said, I'd definitely rule in her favor, no matter what, because she's clearly excellent.

Budweiser created a monster…and they call it Drinkenstein

I definitely recommend Kona Kitchen. Great breakfast and lunch plates, and I'm thinking of forming a religion around their mac salad. Plus, the bad guy from Karate Kid Part II is usually there, sitting by a wall doing paperwork.
