Malbeth is getting wimpy in her old age...what happened to standing up and fighting for what is right and true. Hmmm...too bad we got rid of that axe, Squatter...would be useful against the Trolls...Malbeth also doesn't seem to realize that I live on a mountain, not a plain...*strokes her chin* Hmmm...could she be losing her touch? No: it will never happen... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Oh: I looked up May, as many of my friends' birthdays are then:

Hearken, Fool! There is no wisdom in the catching of donkeys. If you
persist in following this path, you are likely to have your cheeks ripped
asunder and your braided hair cloven by angry Woses!

Well, there you have it: don't go chasing donkeys or you'll be in trouble.

In Dol Guldur, a greedy Ent duels while he waits for the Day of Doom. Seek him there, even though it be a journey of many days, for he holds the key to thy destiny. You will know him by his straight hair, the blade he carries, and his battle-scarred hair. Who can say what dread secrets he may reveal to you? But if you dare to learn his wisdom, be sure to ride upon an energetic chicken to the butte where he dwells, or he will merely smell you and you will not profit.

Really? Maybe I'll read it when I have time. It's lunchtime right now, and I'm hungry.

Uncanny!This Malbeth guy is uncanilly amazing! It's uncanny how one can make such a uncanilly correct predicition.... I have no idea why I'm using the word 'uncanny' repeatedly but I have a vague idea that it has something to do with sleep deprivation and a mental block. Again, uncanny.

If you hit the fountain of a rather hopeless Ent with your knife, you will be fined a few silver pennies. You should embrace a unarmed elk instead. It will be cheaper.

What I want to know is why I would want to hit a fountain in the first place.

And the cheek thing...does it mean the cheeks of my face or...no I won't go there.

To love a Hobbit whose ways are false

With unshod horses out of control,
Badly cleaned two-year-olds,
Or drifting rudderless on a rough ditch,
Or catching a wolf with a crippled stomach
On a thawing hillside: think not to do it.

So, the meaning there is that I shouldn't fall in love with a Hobbit? Hmm... not that I was planning to anyway [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
