The Professor!
Today is J.R.R. Tolkien day. If you feel like it, raise a glass to The Professor at 9:00 pm your local time. My boxed set of The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings is one of my treasured possessions. The daughter of a friend just told me she is re-reading the books and was… Continue reading
