Are you trying to entice Esty to the Quotes forum? If so, the title is well chosen.

Ah, Pitch, you know me! The title is enticing indeed and immediately got my attention. Alas, I have little time for posting activity, but perhaps lightning shall strike...
And here is my contribution, to be quilted to G55's quote: Are the riddling words known to you that Boromir brought to Rivendell? (Frodo, Of Herbs and Stewed Rabbit, TTT)

My apologies for letting this fall (and thank you Pitch and Esty for posting!).
