Now davem, Heren Istarion and SaucepanMan, you just stop what you're doing right now. . .I mean it! davem put down that Bible. And you, H-I drop your copies of the HoME, I mean it! Do it right now.

Oh Saucie, please take that copy of the Letters out of your mouth.

Heavens to Besty, but you lot are such a handful. Don't you remember what happened when you three started like this on the Canonicity thread? Do you want that to happen again?

I didn't think so.

So now -- just get away from those windows and let's concentrate on the question at hand, shall we? Those are all very interesting points that you are making, and I would like to thank you all for them very much, but let's not get sidetracked into the "What Is The Nature Of Evil In Middle-Earth" debate again.

I know! My topic is what started this, and I have begun it all, but please try to move back to the issue of the monsters in LotR, and how they help us to think about the nature of evil in the book.

Now I don't want to have to say this again. If you can't focus on the assignment I'll have to send you down to Principal Estelyn's office where you can explain to her why you always want to talk about books and matters that aren't under discussion.

(Saucie, will you please stop making that noise with your armpit? It's disgusting.)
