"Hilaritas Sapientiae et Bonae Vitae Proles." I saw that quote a lot as a kid. It's on the mantel in one of the rooms in the Raleigh Tavern in Colonial Williamsburg. I even worked there for a while.
Kadh, who always enjoys a good narrative interlude. I wonder if there's a way to get the bridge scene with the old man from Holy Grail into this story. :)

Indeed it is and I have been there myself. What did you think of working at the Tavern?
The quote was a personal favorite of Benjamin Franklin and it was my studies of Dr. Franklin's life and works that first drew my attention to it.

The bridge scene was already used at the Falls of Rauros in FotR, so that's right out, I deny that completely. ;)
Only 3 scenes and the Narrative Conclusion to go and my Magnum Opus shall be "complete," but not finished.
I'll be doing a major rewrite of the whole trilogy (the Extended Edition, eh?), a rework of ALL the images to avoid copyright issues, create an easy to print pdf version, and then (once all that is finished) I'll get started sketching out the enchanting prelude Monty Python: There and Back Again.
That is quite a bit of work, but (if I can stick to my current schedule) I should be starting on MP:TaBA by this Christmas.

Raleigh: really, really good tips.
Bridge scene: so long ago I forgot. Oh well.

Heh. Well, this particular project has been going on for 3 years now.
I would forget what I have written myself if I didn't browse back through everything every once in a while. As my Brit friends are fond of saying, "it's a long bloody octopus to work through!"

That is sooo good on soooo many levels. Let's see: Doon!
[We can say that Aragorn is merely an intelligent bicycle, see? Or we could say that he has some of the qualities of a noble horse. Doesn't he have a taste for sin?]
Of course, where would we be without a giant rabbit crushing the forces of gondor.
And the Eowyn excuse for leaving was, to misquote Tolkien "Precious to me, though I read it with great humor"
