Also that quote has one line that bothers me. Like old times. Why would the Orcs call that old times? It is almost like they are talking about a time before they were Sauron's servants.

I always suspected that "old times" in that quote simply referred to a time before Sauron rose to power again, and the orcs lived in their lair in the Misty Mountains, or south of that in Moria, or anywhere else they lived before Sauron came back to Mordor and started "calling all evil things to him." Wasn't it that call that got Gollum captured? It certainly would have attracted the orcs as well.
As for the question of this thread, I think that an orc would, I don't doubt, try to keep the Ring, but sooner or later (sooner, since they're orcs) they would succumb, and the Ring would somehow betray them, and they would be captured and brought before Sauron, and tortured forever.
Good thing it didn't happen. What a boring story that would have been.
