Hobbit, Martha, Owens, GOP

Good news: Peter Jackson has confirmed he'll make The Hobbit after his remake of King Kong is complete. It will be great to have the "prequel" up to the standard of the three LOTR films.

Jurors Felt Pity for Martha Stewart: obviously not enough to believe her. I'm more interested in the outcome of this case.

The Terrell Owens saga takes a twist: Penn prof to decide on Owens. Based on everything I've heard and read, TO's agent was derelict. Whether TO is with the Ravens or the Eagles, I'm sure I'll be seeing plenty of him, as they are our two closest NFL teams.

N.Y. Rep. King Criticizes Muslim Leaders: Huh? Furor over Bush's 9/11 ad: Yeah. Bush Backs Off Fingerprinting Mexicans: Whew!

I too am glad The Hobbit will be made. I also heard rumor that Ian McClellon(spelling) will be back as Gandalf, Peter Jackson hopes. I did not read the article you linked so maybe is mentioned there. What I wonder is if Jackson will try to get the same Gollum and Bilbo back?

In my opinion The Hobbit is an easier read and is probably less of a challenge to bring to the screen. But the story is just as awesome as the stories told in The Lord of The Rings.

In other news. I too am interested in the outcome of the Tyco case. They really need to do something to protect employees from incidents like Enron from happening further. Throwing these guys in prison for a while might be a good enough deterrent, as well as taking the money back if they can find it.
