Does this sound like you? If it does, a television show would like to chat with you! Anna Dirksen called me up to request some time with a rabid TORN fan from Montreal; she wants to discuss the site from your point of view. If you’re interested, please contact Anna at annadirksen@yahoo.com. Tell her Xoanon sent you 🙂

Today’s USA Today (just like every Thursday edition) has a Top 50 Best Seller list. The Hobbit (by a certain J.R.R. Tolkien) claimed 21st, up from 35th last week. Be sure to take a look, and keep your eye out for next week’s chart.
Once again, the guys at “The Onion” have created a very funny list of things to do to “beat the heat”, including one sly Tolkien reference. [More]
Thanks to all that have written in!
Ringer Spy Oleg sends along some details on the LOTR special that we hope will air on FOX around the American Thanksgiving season.

The Fox channel in the states is supposed to run a LOTR special over the Thanksgiving weekend, a making of type thing I believe. And when TBS, or TNT, I can’t remember, premieres Matrix, there will be a five minute montage of interstitials from the film. The cable channel will probably tease it on ads for Matrix (think, “you’ll love traveling to the future in the Matrix, but stay tuned until the very end and travel back to Middle Earth through scenes from New Line’s event of 2001, LOTR…”).
Trish sends along a site with Lord of Rings figures, rings, tins, and other collectibles for pre-sale. [More]
