Great Book: "Be a Hobbit, Save the Earth:: the Guide to Sustainable Shire Living" by Steve Bivans

https://www.amazon.com/Be-Hobbit-Save-Earth-Sustainable-ebook/dp/B00PWZ7MC2/

How can we transform our chaotic world into a Shire?

It's not easy, but it is Simple. 
We begin by transforming our own minds:
  • Essentially evolving from Homo Sapien to Homo Hobbitla, becoming a modern hobbit! 
  • And no, you don’t have to move into a hole in the ground, or into the country. You can do it in a condo, or in the ‘burbs.’
We transform our homes into hobbit holes: 
  • Minimize our stuff
  • Eat healthier and tastier food from our organic, home gardens and from local farmers markets
  • Use less plastic, and more sustainable materials, like Hemp, bioplastics, reclaimed wood, stone, and glass.
Then we get to work in our communities and neighborhoods to turn them into little Shires!
  • Build community gardens and farmers markets
  • Utilize the Sharing Economy
  • Work to maximize Compassion, Understanding, and Acceptance instead of Fear
And last, we export Shireness to all the World!
  • Cut back on our use of fossil fuels
  • Support clean energy initiatives and help to clean up our oceans.
  • Vote out the Sarumans and Saurons, and vote in fellow Hobbits.

Great Books:The "Lord of the Rings" Trilogy by JRR Tolkien. "The Hobbit" Classic fiction popular with Hippies in the Late Sixties. Made into Great Movies and Led Zeppelin Songs.

These are great books to read while stoned on marijuana... It's a total fantasy world that a smoker can inhabit...


Tolkien invented a World that was loosely based on Rural English Countryside before the Industrial Revolution. It was populated with Hobbits, short people that lived in harmony with the Earth. Wizards, Tree People, Elves, Dwarfs, Orcs, and... a Powerful RING... That made the wearer invisible but eventually enslaved the wearer... and turned him to Evil... Golem, a man that reminds me of a heroin addict...

They have EPIC adventures where they fight evil... and have mighty battles against monsters enslaved by a Dictator from Mordor.

Inspired by World War One... With the English (Hobbits) fighting the Germans (Orcs)...

The Elves in the Story are based one people that lived in Remote Finland.

Discussion of what it all means...

Rock bands of the 1970s were musically and lyrically inspired by the fantasy embracing counter-culture of the time; British 70s rock band Led Zeppelin recorded several songs that contain explicit references to The Lord of the Rings, such as mentioning Gollum in "Ramble On", the Misty Mountains in "Misty Mountain Hop", and Ringwraiths in "The Battle of Evermore".
