Well done Samwise! I was beginning to wonder if anyone would get it, I personally thought it was too easy for people of your caliber...oh well, seems I was mistaken. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Starbreeze - d'oh. That's me, always taking the complicated way round and failing to notice the straight way just in front of me.
Samwise - string, or nothing!! Are you going to tell us the answer if nobody gets it after a few more days? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]. And speaking of church buildings - happy Easter! (It's a few hours early, but I'm going to an Easter vigil in a bit so technically this should be OK).

And a very happy Easter to you, too, Kalimac!
Yes, if no one gets it after a few days, I'll tell you folks. (I just can't believe my little brain thought up one to stump you guys, though... [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] ). Let's see, clue #2... (which may or may not be a giveaway) The folks who shun this usually do so on a Friday. Quote:

Samwise, do you have someone with you adding to your posts, are you schtizophrenic or is your name Stacy? You are confusing the heck out of me! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

Sorry, Kalimac, no.
LOL, Rae--sorry. Yes, my name is Stacey. Talking back and forth between myself and my character was a habit I developed on another board...oddly enough, the character was Sam. Sam: Character?? And what do you mean by that? Stacey: [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Quote:

Clue #3: The answer has to do with some events that happened after ROTK ends....at least, I don't think think they happen 'til after ROTK ends...and I'm not going to spoil it and look, 'cause I'm only barely done with FOTR.

Well, I'm never gonna get Samwise's riddle, so maybe it's time we had another .

No, Rae, the second. The first time I read it, though, was roughly 19 years ago, and I'm finding I remember VERY little. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

We must be close to the same age. The first time I read it was 22 years ago.

LOL! Actually, as I read, I've written them down, and I have a file full of them. Your post led me to dig up that one. You can kind of tell how far I am in the book from my latest quote.

.....and actually, I don't think I've ever used a highlighter in my Bible--at least, not my newer one. My thing is to mark little notes in the margins everywhere.

Raefindel, is the answer to yours a key?
Samwise, I was almost expecting you to tell me "the answer isn't a kettle boiling over" because I'm *really* trying to figure that one out and can't come up with anything that fits perfectly [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]. I'll stick with "string, or nothing!" And I'm starting to feel embarrassingly young; I first read LOTR 12 years ago, and I was still young enough then that my father was reading it aloud to me and two of my brothers for a bedtime story (well I remember when we finished the "Flight to the Ford" chapter where at the end Frodo sees the Nazgul starting across the ford and then collapses into unconsciousness. My dad then closed the book: "OK, time to go to sleep." We protested loudly until he consented to read the first page of the next chapter, so we could see that Frodo was not, in fact, captured by Ringwraiths).
