Also, I worked for a newspaper a long time ago. You have to be very familiar with the concept of libel if you work at a major daily.

Maybe that's why I remember it easily. Spanish is my native language, not English.

Slander is spoken.
Libel is written.

I will pay you to teach me to draw like you. Name your price!

No kidding. If I could draw like that I'd be selling shirts, posters, mugs, murals, doing commissions, pitching illustration ideas to big corporations, literally anything that could have art on it.

Radagast is my favorite! Sylvester McCoy did a great job. I would have loved more scenes with him and Gandalf.

I love the writing style of The Hobbit and its humor makes me actually laugh out loud. One of the only books that does that for me. I loved the movies too, despite how bloated they are. There are a few scenes that I loved seeing in film, including the barrel ride down the river (even though a lot of extras were added there), and really any scene with Smaug. Benedict Cumberbatch was perfect as Smaug's voice as well.

I was going to open with that but your mention of Spanish gave me a hook. :D
