I have compared JK Rowling and JRR Tolkein
and I have concluded that they are not the same.

5. Tolkien is such a hobbit.
And Rowling is obviously an elf...

18. Left Is Write explained that one to me.
Only if JK is old enough to be my mum, is she a MILF. And I don't think she is, quite. Otherwise she's just an older woman ILF.

12. Are you sure they aren't the same?
Edited on Mon Jul-23-07 03:49 PM by BarenakedLady
I mean have you ever seen them in a room together at the same time?

Hmmmmm? I think NOT!

I have proven my point.

19. Tolkein took polyjuice potion to hide his longevity.
Damn talented man. Between Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter, he worked in advertising. He created the "I'd like to teach the world to sing" Coke commercials.

Very talented man. I wonder who he was before Tolkein.
