fUSION Anomaly. J.R.R. Tolkien
Link
Read down a little on this scattered discussion of the life and work of J.R.R. Tolkien and you'll find some strange things. I would have never guessed that people hold Tolkien meetings in Russia, dressing up as elves and speaking Elvish, a concept I find simultaneously cool and goofy-as-hell. Apparently some other people there get together solely to pretend to be orcs, though they seem to be getting something out of the idea that was nowhere to be found in The Lord of the Rings.
Amazingly enough, this link wasn't scavanged off of another blog.
