If I had the Ring I would most likely lock it in a steel box and drop it into the middle of the ocean. I don't understand why they didn't do that in the first place (take it over the ocean). Elrond said something about this being Middle-Earth's problem and that they would have to deal with it. I would have sent it out on the last boat to depart from the Grey Havens because no one is allowed to go to the Undying lands except for the Elves and the Ring Bearers (and Gimli who went with Legolas, I think). I would most definately not go into Mordor with it (that shows how brave I am [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] )
