Re: Who do you think Tom Bombadil really was

***?!? My last post has a lot of those accursed red x's but all my words have vanished!!

Oh well. What I had said was concerning Tom B and the ring. Gandalf, and indeed Sauron, were maian spirits, correct? And they were obviously subject to the ring's influence. But Bombadil put the bloody thing on his finger and it did absolutely nothing! So while this doesn't provide a theory to who or what Tom is, it does disprove the maian theory. Unless he's some mutant super-maia, which I doubt.

You're on crack or something, Deceased are brilliant.</p>
