50 Facts So Fascinating They’ll Stick In Your Brain All Week

The story is actually written from Sam's perspective. He is definitely the main character in it, despite the first impression. He certainly is the most heroic, even being able to resist the pull of the Ring, which even Frodo can't. A true hero, without whom the plot would have failed several times.

When he is tempted with the Ring, Sam sees Mordor as a huge fertile garden, the garden of his dreams. But he realises that he would need slaves for it and easily dismisses it.

That's what I always thought.

Surely anyone who's ever read the books would be of the same opinion. The Frodo character doesn't really do anything except act as a means to Sam's heroism.

I recognized this the first time I read the book, when I was 10. 60 years a go.

Be aware of the elephant in the room and the dog in the hole.

I have a respect for elephants. They are much more intelligent and empathic that most people believe.

I had to check up, but the 75 feet refers to the drop to the water line. At first I thought it just meant that the hole was 75 feet deep.

Very brave. But why was a class of 3 year old kiddos in that kind of place?

😮

B****s!

Why did it take 2 hours? Surely safety equipment should be available?

This is what america used to be about. So sad.

If I remember correctly he has more flirting with Moneypenny in at least one of the later ones, which was way better because they're the same age

This is a funny coincidence because I was actually watching his last Bond movie yesterday and noticed the same thing! I just happened to flip channels and find it on. A View to a K!ll is the movie. It also stars Christopher Walken as the villain with bleached blond hair. 😂

Thank you for reflecting Mr Moore!!!

A little note here in anticipation of crystalwitch adding something illiterate and unnecessarily inflammatory. Hopefully she will refrain from doing so.

This is deeply touching.

Awwwwww

Finnish cuisine is not the best, tbh. For most of the history Finns have had to eat what they can get or starve so it's not fancy and it's not always healthy. Of course there are exceptions to that.

Now *that* is how to do it.

I had the best pizza in Finland. Chicken, blue cheese and wait for it - pineapple chutney.

😄😄😄😄. That is great,

For context: Źabka is a grocery store chain in Poland

Companies can do good deeds. Yes, it's advertising, but the end results are gratifying.

Absolutely ridiculous that it isn't just from when you buy the property. You have to wait a generation before you're entitled to keep access to the sky?

Not as cut and dry as that unfortunately. It is a right to a minimum level of light and not necessarily direct sunlight. Ie if you have direct sunlight into your kitchen or garden from 9am to 6pm there is nothing stopping a development being built that reduces that to one or two hours a day. As long as your home is not in complete shadow all day every day unfortunately you just have to suck it up

It really warms my heart to read stories like this one, more please.

Great man, great music

They knew what it was to be hungry

We are not worthy of Mr. Rodgers!

I wish we had something like this here in the UK. I suppose the closest person was Tony Hart.

I'm glad I grew up in a time of shows like his and Captain Kangaroo.
