Happy Birthday Bilbo Baggins

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Today is the anniversary of the first publication of The Hobbit

Coincidentally (or more probably not) tomorrow is Bilbo's birthday within the Legendarium...

Happy birthday Bilbo! :lol:

Eh? I thought it was the 15th of May.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
