Well, that was a sucky way to start the morning. [In reply to] Can't Post

Thanks for the heads-up.

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."

"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

Though I didn't agree with them all and to be honest didn't read them all. Sometimes life even for me is too short! Sorry you have had a sucky start to the day! Start? It's eight in the evening here!

Wait... [In reply to] Can't Post

So you're already in Wednesday?

Any tips on Tuesday's stock market, horse races, or lotteries would be appreciated.

Elves and Men and Dwarves gonna cower,
When I finish building my tower,
When I finish building my tower with the Eye on top!
Watch that Eye and see how it glowers,
Ain't no contest between the Two Towers,
Nosey folks'll peek thru' palantirs and their eyes will pop!
The battlement's black and immeasurably strong, an adamant mountain of iron,
A buttress of steel, impossibly tall, held aloft by the power of Sauron!
See that Eye a winkin' and blinkin',
Ain't no finer tower I'm thinkin',
You can keep Orthanc if you're thinkin' that I'd care to swap,
For my black and shiny tower with the Eye on the top!

And hence the humor of the situation. Got it. I can just imagine the mad dash that may or may not have occurred.
