Me want

Here's some ultimate nerdity that I would nevertheless gladly wear (look closely/zoom in on thumbnails below): http://www.threadless.com/product/2293/There_and_Back_Again.

I wonder if the Tolkien Estate will be putting the smack down on this, though.

    I once played a game of Mornington Crescent with a similar LotR map.

    It works because it's only if you really look closely you realise how incredibly nerdy it is.

    Yes, it's the subtlety of it that makes it work.

    Charles: Mornington Crescent? I don't know what that is.

    Brian, it's a game from the old UK radio show 'Sorry, I haven't a Clue' and it's usually played with the regular Underground Map. Wiki here.
