This week's WW cover story goes to show that hobbits aren't very good accountants. Focusing on a group of Lord of the Ring devotees, it delves into the dark, sweaty underbelly of fandom. It's a great read- in a sad, sci-fi Maury Povich sort of way. The twist ending threw me for a loop but it should be obvious from the pictures.

They made the evil Witch King Gothmog spend the night in a cramped LA apartment?

Sorry...that's funny. HA! HA! HA!
