It's risk mitigation for the banks. You don't have to put 20% down, but generally you'll have to pay an additional insurance (PMI) if you don't.

I work in analytics. I usually enjoy the work. It's fun showing people insightful things, but it can be a drag when folks don't listen.

A Tolkien based active community would be great. Reddit had/has a few that were fairly active. There are communities here but really not active at all.

Also wish the NBA community was more active - quite frankly surprised it's not.

I'm fucking laughing out loud reading this comment.

Exclusive: The Hobbit's Richard Armitage looks back on playing Thorin Oakenshield 11 years after its release ( www.hellomagazine.com )

Terrible is a strong statement imo. However, I agree and believe that they do not represent tolkien's work very well. At times you see it, but the majority is Hollywood nonsense.

Overall I do enjoy the movies and I'll be happy if there is more material to continue to introduce people to Tolkien.

Tried to watch season 1. I didn't make it through episode 2. Too much was just made up and it sort of lost me. I do think I'm a relatively traditional Tolkien fan (in that I prefer his work to adaptations), but I really wanted to like it.

I may try again before season 2 premiers, but I haven't decided yet.

Maybe? I do not have enough information on it to speak intelligently. What % of adults (let's say over 25) were homeowners then compared to now?

I would assume they keep time the old fashion way with the sun. But I do not know.
