h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

...there should definitely be some kind of counselling service for LOTR obsessives. Incidentally, have you seen the e-mails circulating: the Secret Diaries Of... the LOTR characters and the condensed script for The Two Towers? They're hilarious, especially the Secret Diary of Aragorn son of Arathorn. sample: "stubble update: mangy. fear Legolas may be hotter than me. wonder if he will still like me when i am king?"

Hey, if you're insinuating that I have a problem, I assure you that I do not. i am currently in a twelve step programme, and haven't seen The Two Towers for at least... well two days. And the elvish tattoo...? Well, it should come off completely after that laser removal treatment.

No but really. Yeah, I'm an addict. Evidently you are as well. I can't say as I've seen those e-mails. Unfortunately my e-mail is fairly cut and dry and boring. So where do you hail from then? And how did you find me?

this is going to sound really pathetic but i did a search for orlando on the guide search engine and found your LOTR page. fellow obsessives are always welcome. send your e-mail address to [email protected] and i'll post you the two LOTR-related mails and any new ones i get sent. and i'm from glasgow and currently can't go through a day without watching either fellowship or the two towers. thankfully my lovely flatmate kev has the two fellowship dvds (the two disc one and four disc extended one) or i might actually go insane.

oh i meant to say it isn't just an orlando thing, it's the whole LOTR thing with me as well. having a very sexy elf boy in the movies just helps.

You found me on the guide search? Hahahahaha. Then you know I've met the bloke, right?

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
My freind cat used to live across the road from him and was at a christmas party at his house or something. i wasn't really listening at the time cos she talks a bit much.

Heh. You poor gel.

Well when I met him it wasn't as if I was seeking him out or anything; far from it. I was at a concert in Denver, Colorado at the Bluebird Theatre (which is a bit of a dive.)

I was seeing this band called Death Cab For Cutie. And he was there, for whatever reason. He was really cool, at any rate.

ooooh, death cab for cutie. how... bizarre. doesn't seem like the kind of thing he would be into, but they are pretty good.

Glad you liked the two towers script. I thought it was pretty damn good myself. You should check out the diaries though, Aragorn's is priceless.

*salutes*

Will do.

Oh, and of the Death Cab thing, I said I was in Colorado, you remember? And you do know he's a nut when it comes to boarding... he said that's what he was doing here. I think he just got dragged to the concert with some friends or something. There were some boarder-looking guys with him...
