    I've already seen the exhibit (quite good, especially the Dead Marshes), but I wouldn't mind hooking up with people afterwards. It takes about 1 - 1.5 hours to go through, so I'll hang around outside starting at 3 PM and look for you all.

    Well, it looks as if I might not be going after all...my mom doesn't want to go to downtown and my friend's dad doesn't want her to go either cause of that recent news... [face_plain] :(

    I personally think that news is bogus, We have nothing to do with everthing towards the war on terrorism, Bush isn't calling us a Great Ally, why are we getting targeted?

    I'm still going, and I have to take the buss to get there.

    Hi everyone,

    I want to come to the H.P film but not the Exhibit, and I too want to know where I can get hooked up with you all! Where do you think you'll be going for dinner? I'll be dancing 'til 3:45 or so. I can join you from about 4:30 on.

    GAHHHH! stupid news.

    okay, well heres my take on the situation. If you live in fear, well then those who seek to put you in fear win. If you live your life because each day counts, then the bad guys can never win.

    Don't let words stand in the way of living your life, be careful but don't fall prey to the malicious words of others.

    Celebrate whats good about life. Enjoy the world, you only have one life to see it all.

    I agree with you Elewyn. And, I'm not really afraid, like, I know Canada is a safe country, right? It's my mom and my friend's dad who don't want us to go to downtown.. [face_plain] I'm really pissed now...it always seems to be my luck...everytime I get the chance to meet you all, I can't.. [face_plain]

    But, I hope you all have a good time on Saturday. :)

    Well I went to Crownsville Maryland Thanksgiving weekend, and nobody shot me.

    Course they were still to busy deciding who they were going to have play the sniper. I would've gone with a wackier single sniper myself, but I'm not directing that show.

    As to Two Towers, when you get out, wave to us, we'll be in the line for the 3:00 showing.

    How can I recognize you guys? I don't remember too many people from the swap meet. Will there be a sign?

    Also if we're bringing a toy or food, is that going to be carted around all day?

    If you come just for the movie - best place to try and meet us would be the Uptown, a half-hour before showtime. If you don't see us lined up out front, assume we're inside already. We'll try to save a couple extra seats for late-comers.

    Should plans change, I'll try to leave a note posted somewhere outside the theatre in a somewhat obvious spot.

    --

    I'm going to be headed out to the ROM shortly. See you all at 1:30pm near the entranceway to the LotR exhibit. For those of you new to the group, you'll be able to recognize me by me Star Wars necktie.

    We're trying for a 2pm entrance, but if they're swamped, be prepared to wait until 3pm. The weather says that the day will be rain free, however it will be cold. As cold as it was in May, even. So bundle up.

    Well it sounds like people had a good time! sorry i couldn't make it today, but stuff came up and then it was too late to meet up with you all.

    I'll be heading off to the exhibit tomorrow though so this pervy hobbit fancier (in training) will soon have her tolkien fix for now......

    I hear Harry Potter was faboo. can't wait to see it!

    Hey all,

    I had a great time today. The exhibit and the movie were both great, and the best part was just hanging around with everyone... that's what really makes the 4hr (each way) drive worthwhile. A special thanks to those who brought food-items to be donated to the food bank. Remember, we do plan to carry our little food drive right through the holidays.

    Here's looking forward to Two Towers Dec 18 and our other holiday events. Keep an eye on the website for these to be announced... and for photos from this event.

    Hi all,

    I had a great time last night. I wasn't crazy about the first Harry Potter movie, but this time I really enjoyed The Chamber of Secrets. And it's really nice to see everyone again. It seems as if it's been a long time, although only a month and a half. Guess that's long enough!

    We're doing Christmas stuff? Yay! Do tell!

    And a good time was had by all.

    Hey, did you know that cameras weren't allowed in the exhibit? Neither did I! ;)

    Though everything was shot from the hip, so my composition sucks! And I would have liked to use the flash...oh well, these are my results. If anyone notes errors on my naming conventions, please let me know so I can correct them!

    Here's my pics

    KEN! You criminal. I'd almost say you were slipping.

    The show was awesome, good fun, and one of the corpses in the dead marsh didn't belong.
