I read somewhere that he had it on his third finger (the middle finger, any way you count it...) when Gollum bit it off.. I think. I'll check it. |

Yes, but as Tar Elenion said, *Morgoth* - Melkor's physical form at Arda - was killed. Melkor was expelled, cast into the Void, to wait there until the day when all creatures, mortals and immortals,... |

I can't do anything but agree with most of you. Tolien was not a sexist. As mentioned by several others, women generally don't go to war. Of course, there are female soldiers, but not really any... |

As for the numberof Balrogs, that issue will probably never be settled. Another thread somewhere here 'sort of ended up with kinda agreeing on seven' (get the point..?). However, hosts of lesser... |

I think Aragorn would have been most capable of killing Frodo. Aragorn (son of Arathorn and all that pompous *** stuff) only knew Frodo as a courier; Frodo had not yet become an official ringbearer,... |

ANY character, from ANY JRRT book? Ilúvatar . (Does this one need any explanation?) But if I am to not aim that high, I would choose Aragorn; king, wise, long-lived, etc. Plus, he gets... |

I don't think Sauron would have needed the Ring to make Smaug fight the free peoples. A slap on the bottom and a 'there are riches beyond your imagining' would probably have set him off. As for... |

I think it's the same with good books as with good music; the first time is either overwhelmingly fantastic, or too much. Then, the more you read (or listen) the more you find out about the work, and... |

Yes! Entish poetry has a high spot on my list too. 'The Little House of Lost Play' (Mar Vanwa Tyaliéva) from BoLT is my all-time favourite. |
