I'm going to try to sneak in a quick post before I need to get going.

"I am out of my reckoning," he (Aragorn) said to Frodo. "I did not know that we had come so far: Anduin flows faster than I thought. Sarn Gebir must be close at hand already."

You can draw parallels here, with Gandalf's "misleading" of direction in Moria, and Aragorn's "misleading" direction. Aragorn didn't really "mislead" he just didn't anticipate on hitting the rapids this fast, which I think shows the connection that Gandalf and Aragorn aren't perfect.
I don't have enough time to get in what I wanted (I'll be back, lol). But, here's a bit more on Boromir's wittiness, which may be the funniest one yet.
