A few more comments about the information Pattertwigs Pal has given:

Pattertwigs Pal, I love how you so naturally bring God and Jesus Christ into your answers to the questions people are asking you. He (and Biblical values) just flow so seamlessly into your responses that, to me, it seems like you have a really good and strong relationship with Him, which is awesome! (I'm a Christian, too.)

I really like your first post on the forum (that you quoted in your first post in this thread!). It's well-written, thought-provoking, and presents a really good argument, in my opinion, for the Chronicles of Narnia not being sexist.

Okay, it's time for me to ask some questions... but not too many, for Pattertwigs Pal's sake!

1. When did you become a Christian?
2. How old were you when you first read The Lord of the Rings?
3. What is, or are, your least favourite part(s) in the LotR movies?
4. You said your birthday is September 21. Are you disappointed you weren't born one day later so as to be born on Bilbo and Frodo's birthday? :p
5. Have you ever read any of Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events books? (I thought maybe you thought of the name "Violet" as the name you'd like to be renamed from these books. Also, in your location, you say you are "sleuthing spammers" and then at the bottom of your signature, you explain the word "sleuthing", saying: "in this case a word meaning to track down.", and in Lemony Snicket's books, from my recollection, he explains words a lot in this way.)
6. If so, did you like them?
7. You're a cat person, not a dog person, right?
8. Can I call you "Twigs"? (*Thinks this is a very cute nickname!*)

Okay, that's all for now. Thanks, and good job answering all of the (sometimes quite random) questions, Pattertwigs Pal! :)

102. When did you become a Christian?
I'm not sure I can pinpoint an exact time. For as long as I can remember Jesus, God, and church have been an important part of my life.
103. How old were you when you first read The Lord of the Rings?
In high school.
104. What is, or are, your least favourite part(s) in the LotR movies?
What they did to Faramir (when he doesn't let Frodo go) and when Frodo sends Sam away and when Sam goes. There are more but those two bother me the most.
105. You said your birthday is September 21. Are you disappointed you weren't born one day later so as to be born on Bilbo and Frodo's birthday? :p
That would have been cool but I was born on the anniversary of the publication of the Hobbit. (It was published Sept. 21 1937)
106. Have you ever read any of Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events books?
Yes, I've read the first one myself and listened to others (I'm working my way through them. I'm in the Austere Academy right now). I wondered if anyone would pick up that reference in my signature. ;)) I actually started liking the name Violet because of the Boxcar Children and because I like the color itself.
107. If so, did you like them?
Yes, I do. I love the style they are written in, especially the asides about definitions. ;))
108. You're a cat person, not a dog person, right?
Yes
109. Can I call you "Twigs"?
Of course. :)
110. Do you have a favorite Muppet(s) and why (can name more than one)?
I like Kermit a lot. He has so much to put up with but he does a good job. I also like Rizzo and Gonzo. They play off of each other so well.
111. Do you have a favorite Muppet movie?
Muppets Treasure Island
112. Are you going to read more Austen novels?
Eventually, I hope to read all of them.
113. What do you think of Henry in Sense and Sensibility?
Right now I can't remember who that is. It's been a while since I read the book and I don't remember it very well.
114. Will you watch Martin Freeman in Sherlock before The Hobbit comes out?
Probably not.
