Don't take this wrong, but... (3 Replies) Gandalf - 06/25/1998 - 09:45:00 A

(This was in a response to North Star's post and has been duplicated here.)

Wherever I have been, I am back.

Last I checked, the Pole Star (Polaris) was located at the end of the Ursa Minor's tail (the LITTLE Dipper), not Ursa Major (the Big Dipper). Did the Universe decide to rearrange itself without telling me??? How dare it!!! =)

And since Tolkien is one of my favorite authors, my handle is in homage to his great story. It also relays an enigmatic quality which I have been said to have.

Wherever I am going, I will return.

You also share your name with a Blue Point Siamese Grand Premier named Ambracia Gandalf the Grey. I had been waiting years to have a cat good enough to give that name. Most incredibly he made his grand in 2 shows.

...but I'm pretty sure Polaris can still be seen in Ursa Minor!(Response to North Start's post.)

My Dad has a cat named Gandalf who is also rather enigmatic : )

Excellent name after an excellent character. Tolkien rocks.
