The quality of nothing hath not such need to hide itself.
Nothing will come from nothing, Brinniel, and a cobbler is not nothing, but rather a tasty half-baked dessert.
I have always felt that those who declare themselves innocent are newbies, or guilty, though this does not mean that newbies are not guilty. Some newbies may seem less new than they seem; and yet post too much of the obvious. If I was not a balrog, I would suspect such.
Macalaure is too kind - but that is only because he is the cobbler-lover. Do not listen to him.
Legate especially should not listen to all he hears, and can say what he likes about what he knows no more of than he does of pies. If death at night, at the hands of baddies, is lynching, then I admit was lynched in WW XXX.
Those who bark up the wrong tree are often of the canine variety, but we have balrogs here, so I don't know... I don't know.
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose...

... good night, sweet ladies, goodnight.
EDIT - X'd with Brinn, Nog, Mac, Gil & Nog (I think that's all)
