I loved Lord of the Rings when I read it back in junior high school,
which was, um, over 25 years ago. I have now forgotten almost the
entire plot. (Perhaps this is a good thing, if the movie is as
unfaithful to the book as people say.)

On the other hand, I read "*Bored* of the Rings" just shortly after
reading LoTR, and can still quote huge passages of it from memory:

"An Elven Maid there was of old,
A Stenographer by day.
Her hair was fake, her teeth were gold,
Her scent was that of cheap sachet...."

Any other fans of "Frito" and "Goodgulf" here?

named in the satire, which is a shame because she's sure it would
amuse John.
