Yes, LEAVE my Sam alone!!!
I wonder if there would be a contingent of people saying this for any of the characters in LOTR, or if Sam is especially beloved in this way. He does seem to have a lot of defenders! I, personally, love Sam! He was my first favorite character when I came to the books years ago. But, I figure, if they'll let people wholeheartedly lampoon poor Frodo in the "Frodo the Nazgul" thread, then Sam is fair game! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I appreciate your comments, Luthien about the spirit of the fun, and do take them to heart! And Arathiriel, methinks Sean Astin's Sam was one of the truest portrayals in the film! But that doesn't stop me from stalking about the house thinking of silly things like Sam the scheming gardener, because that's what he was! The chief conspirator! Step forward Samwise, you rascal!
