Nerdities

Dr. Seuss's Lord of the Rings

Posted by Paulie at 2:44 PM on June 1, 2006.

"Gandalf, Gandalf! Take the ring!
I am too small to carry this thing!"

"I can not, will not hold the One.
You have a slim chance, but I have none.
I will not take it on a boat,
I will not take it across a moat.
I cannot take it under Moria,
that's one thing I can't do for ya.
I would not bring it into Mordor,
I would not make it to the border."

This was found by Chris (aka he who never posts) and sent to me earlier today. The thread is almost 4 years old, but absolutely completely brilliant, if you're a literary nerd. I'm only partially so, and thus post the Seussian rhymes above as it's the one I most understood.

Sarah:

Are you referring to Chris the SLACKER?

Lord:

It sounds like song. I copy it for myself. Nice thing.
