5.  What did Legolas, Gimli and Aragorn surmise had happened to Frodo and Sam?

 

- Frodo and Sam were defending themselves against a lawsuit claiming that hobbits encouraged people to be fat. EowynDernhelm  ROFLMAO!

 

- They got lost in Varda Elentari's closet Yncanes

 

- They were gone. The Fellowship could only see two explanations.

       1--They went to Mordor alone.

2--Before they could cross the lake...
a gang of bank robbers took them hostage.
The cops gave chase.
They got away... but Sam caused a crash.
When they regained consciousness, they had lost their memory.
An ex-con picked them up...
mistook them for fugitives and shipped them to Istanbul.
There they met some Afghan raiders...
who took them to steal some Russian warheads.
But their truck hit a mine in Tajikistan.
They survived, took to the hills...
and became Mujaheddin... Eärendil The Mariner

- They had finally realized that the only way to do it was to elope. luinfalathiel

 

- They left in a huff, incensed by Boromir's attempted theft of Frodo's LOTR underoos. Seillib

 

- Based on the evidence at hand, they gathered that Frodo and Sam had been abducted by aliens to be used for genetic research and be returned in 48 hours. They then proceeded to discuss how the extra-terrestrials would react to the Ring... LOTR_nutcase

 

 

TECPs (theme extra credit)

 

Varda Elentari  -- A TORnsib in med school, oh the horror!

1.  What wound did Aragorn hear that alerted him that Boromir was in trouble?
-the sound of a sharp, pointed object piercing Boromir's epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis, puncturing his pectoralis major and pectoralis minor (possibly severing the lateral and medial pectoral nerves), shooting through his external and internal intercostals, rupturing the internal thoracic artery on the way, entering the pleural space, piercing his pericardium and lodging deeply in his left ventricle.  Aragorn had good hearing.

2.  What was Boromir’s confession before he died?
-"when I die, I will lose control of all my muscles, including my bowels and my bladder.  Just thought I'd warn you."

3.  Gimli:  “S is for sacrum.  That is easy to read.”
     Legolas:  “Nay!  My family physician does not use the proper terminology.  He calls it the a** bone.”

4.  Briefly describe the memorial for Boromir.
-his body was preserved by transcardiac perfusion, sectioned transversely, and
mounted using a special procedure involving- heey!  WAKE UP!!

5.  What did Legolas, Gimli and Aragorn surmise had happened to Frodo and Sam?
-VE and a 22 blade.

Roheryn  -- Limerick lessons.

 

1.  What wound did Aragorn hear that alerted him that Boromir was in trouble?

The sound that Aragorn heard
Was actually rather absurd:
“But why is the rum gone?”
Cried Persnickety Sean;
So the Ranger disasters inferred.

 

2.  What was Boromir’s confession before he died?
In Boromir’s dying confession,
He revealed a secret obsession:
A pirate at sea
He wanted to be –
An astounding, disturbing transgression.

 

4.  Briefly describe the memorial for Boromir.
In the interests of non-charcoaled dinner
Ro’s slacking, committing a sinner:
For if a limerick I write
My dinner tonight
Might best be tossed out in the binner.

 

5.  What did Legolas, Gimli and Aragorn surmise had happened to Frodo and Sam?
Aragorn, Legsie and Gimli
Surmised the hobbits went swim-li –
The pirate-ship lurking
With pirates a-smirking
Inspired such foolhardy whim-lis.
