It's Earth Day. Show us something you love about our planet.

Show us the very last picture you took. No cheating!

This is the very last photograph on my camera. I'm glad it's one of the more interesting ones and not one of the boring over-exposed pictures of rocks I took on the same day.

I took this photo on Tuesday. It's sort of a weird shot Distance and the angle I was shooting from make the three main elements (the house, the trees, the field of broom) look quite different in relation to each other than they are in reality.

Show us the loveliest flower in your garden.

This is a King Kong Coleus. I love the colours on the leaves! The helpful lady at the garden centre told me that I would only need one of these in my 3-foot long planter since it would grow that big, no problem. We'll see.

Show us your favorite doctor.

My favourite doctor is The Tenth Doctor.

Video:  Show us your favorite show, scene or movie that takes place in the future.

Wedding Portrait. My Mom and Dad.

Video: Show us a clip of a TV show you miss.

I feel compelled to add this one too.

In case you haven't heard, JMS is finishing up work on a Babylon 5 direct-to-DVD release that will feature two more installments in the Babylon 5 saga. Here [Spoiler Alert!!] is the latest news.

Video: Show us a clip of a TV show you miss.

1960's TV. Now you know why I turned out this way...

Book: Show us a book you started reading but never finished.

The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. Started it a few times. Never got past page 100. Don't know why, it's just one of those books that it's a chore to read. And I hate chores.

Also several books by Margaret Atwood. Somehow people assume that I MUST have read all of her novels. It's almost like it's your duty to read them if you are female, and especially if you are female and Canadian. I tried and I can't. I dislike them. And I've tried a number of them. I'm not going to try any more. You might as well give up on trying to shame me into reading them because I don't care and I won't. So, there. And don't give me any more Margaret Atwood novels for my birthday or for Christmas either. It's a short trip to the second hand book store for them.

Book: Show us one of your favorite works of fiction.

The Lord of The Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien. This is my paperback edition, printed in 1970.

Three Rings for the Elven-Kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

--J R R Tolkien
