Profile
editI go by the name RashBold in homage to J.R.R. Tolkien, who is my favorite author. To those who are not in the know, the name Rashbold is a play on his own name, which means "foolhardy". As a matter of fact, there is a character named John Jethro Rashbold in the work written by Tolkien, The Notion Club Papers, published in Sauron Defeated.
I am a Filipino, born in Manila in 1967. A graduate of the Royal and Pontifical Univerity of Santo Tomas, I'm currently married, with one beautiful daughter. My interest in Tolkien is such that I am the acknowledged expert in the Elvish languages in this country.
But my interest not only lies in anything Tolkien. I also like history, movies, comic books; in short virtually everything under the sun. :) But evidently, based on the articles that I have written/contributed so far, I'm an anglophile (the first sense), although I'm not above laughing at jokes at England's expense. I am also a World War II and espionage buff as well. And I am proud to say that I am a certified Wikipediholic.
I hate vandalism!
editWhen I have nothing to do, I try to check through articles on a random basis and edit out vandalism. It is my opinion that vandals have no place in Wikipedia. They make it inconvenient for legitimate users and ultimately achieve nothing but some perverse pleasure on their part.
