I had a post about a week ago….but the laptop ate it. “It wasn’t my fault!” *ahem*

So, I’m sitting here thinking (and battling a bout of writer’s block) and reflect “You know, a lot a people imitate LOTR.”

Ok, so today I was working on my computerized biology book. Looking back over pages, searching for that which I have forgotten.

I can read The Fellowship of the Ring now! I’m about half-way through. I understand now why my parents made me wait; it is dark. My older brother finished or almost finished his on-line coarse.

If anyone who made the laws which companies had to follow was really bored one day and wanted some excitement, this is what he could do.
