I'd like to buy some E.

P.S. That was uncanny, Guinevere - with only four letters! How d' you do that?

Guinevere · 11-26-2009, 03:47 PM

Well, as I mentioned, I had guessed "? (could be "but" or "for") I say to you, ? of the ? ," which sounded familiar... (first I thought it might be Huor's last words, but it wasn't that, then my brain churned it over until suddenly the solution popped up.)

"Aye, we will," said Gimli. "The legs of Men will lag on a rough road, while a Dwarf goes on, be the burden twice his own weight, Master Boromir!" - Gimli at Sarn Gebir.

Inziladun · 11-27-2009, 05:07 PM

Quote:

'Aye, we will,' said Giml. 'The legs of Men will lag on a rough road, while a Dwarf goes on, be the burden twice his own weight, Master Boromir!'

Gimli explaining he is just as capable as a Man when it comes to carrying boats.

EDIT- Pitch beat me to it.

Guinevere · 11-28-2009, 03:01 PM

That's it!

(Apparently the scriptwriters of the movie haven't read that or didn't believe it...
