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

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I just missed a bluff charge from a grizz at Brookfield zoo a couple years ago when the group I was with got a sneak peak of the new bear enclosure.

The gorillas at the San Diego Zoo (the one with no bars, no shatter-resistant windows - just moats) circa 1968-1970 used to sit up on the top of the rocks.  When someone became a bit too impolite (in gorilla terms) the gorillas would use the height to their advantage.

Squat.
Fill hand.
Profit.

They were fairly accurate, too.  As in probably within a 5* arc from somewhere between 45 & 50 feet.  So if what the gorilla did was not enough to correct your behavior, the folks around you were sure to "help out".

I wonder if that behavior was taught to succeeding generations.

stay safe.

(Not poo-flinging monkeys.  Poo-flinging great apes.  Get it straight.)

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.
