That's right, Viggo Mortensen has gone to visit Cindy at Camp Crawford

I would be there now, but I just can't afford it...:cry:

3. Well, from the article at Iconoclast it looks like he just stopped by.
Thursday, Aug. 11, 2005

Earlier today, Viggo Mortensen, who starred in Lord of the Rings as King Aragon, showed support to Cindy with a visit to Camp Casey.

Interviews with supporters of Cindy are coming soon this evening.

I looked and didn't see any photos posted of his visit.

Man, he's such a great guy...actor, author, musician, artist, activist...he's a 21st century renaissance man, and he's SO gorgeous to boot! I know I sound like a gushing sixteen-year-old, but oh well. ;)

15. Legolas is cute and all, but I'll always be an Aragorn kinda girl...

Though the sad truth is, I'm just too young for him. :cry:

That'd be Aragorn in the only actual Lord of the Rings movie based on the books.

9. Absolutely
He does seem like a good guy. I just have to harpoon Jackson's movies every chance I get because everyone loves them sooooooooooo much!

Viggio was very good at being slimy in "A Perfect Murder". He's a fine actor.

:)

16. That would be awesome. Hopefully I'll have time and money to go then.
I'm really hating being stuck here while something so powerful and important is going on.
