I hope I'm not skewing any definitions here, but I've always thought it a rather bitter irony that Frodo goes on his journey in order to save the Shire and is then unable to dwell in it afterwards.
Yes, I found that quite ironic. Maybe we are skewing the definitions, but that did always strike me as fate playing a trick on poor Frodo. He didn't expect it to turn out that way (at least, not that I can remember...) and tried to get back to normal. But it wasn't to be.

Thanks for the compliments on the avatar, Willie and Aratlithiel. Yes, I loved the old Daffy one, but I had it for four months, so I decided to get something different for difference sake. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Kinda goes with my crazy new nick, too. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
