So yesterday Chris and I settled in to watch our L&O Season 2 DVDs, and he noticed something. A theme. The second DVD contains the eps God Bless the Child who was a Misconception, In Memory Of a night Out Of Control.

cassatt sent me a hilarious link to Nine Men And A Little Lady, on Mary Sueing in the LOTR universe. I think I got a hernia laughing at this.

Got your mega email, and forwarded it to Rainer so he can be up to date on your lives before we stay with you. ;-) Oh, and my kids love to play pretend. They've been Legolas and Aragorn for most of the week. They'll give your kids a thorough soaking in play while we're there.
