The Ring Should Be Made of Mashed Potatoes

If you have never read Edward Gibbon's The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, it's probable that most of what has been happening for decades here in Middle Earth seems shocking to you.

We, on the other hand, have this and I for one cannot wait for the Olympic Committee to decide whether it should be included as part of the games, though the only question may well be Summer or Winter. Probably along with fart-lighting.
