Here are some links to the Best of Periannath.com (so far).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[FARK.com directed me to a post entitled “10 Reasons why Gandalf is a terrible wizard." The reason I decided to write a point-by-point response isn't because I felt the need to rush to Gandalf's defense, but because I don't think the post is very well thought-out.
