My name is Bilbo Baggins, and i'm obviously a diminutive person with big
hairy feet.  or so you might guess from my name.

The point is, on the internet you can have what ever identity you want.
Yep, your name doesnt sound very anglo saxon, but then again, i dont
know if thats your real name.

in all the time i've been on this list, i cant think of one racial slur
being uttered.  plenty of piss taking tho.

ho hum.
back to the shire for me.
