I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Oooo, bringing different service branches into this is like hot molten lava.

"Naval" refers to anything sea-going....from a sailboat to an armada.....

Relatively young though I may be, I immediately grasped the significance of xeriscaping due to my habitat in Arizona.

No idea... but an endoscopic examination by Ned would likely reveal intriguing results.

Is it possible to have just one thread where Ned's colon is not discussed?

The "Ned's Colon" meme is, unfortunately, terribly tenacious on this forum, and extremely difficult to put an end to.
