ah.. *avoids gladly* now back on topic...
If you slid papers into a folder, without putting them into the folder flap, wouldnt it defeat the whole purpose of the folder?

I think it would because you would have to worry about the papers falling out as you carried the folder. Couldn't you just carry the papers in your hand without the folder?
But......
If it was raining and you slid them into the folder (but not the folder flap) you would be keeping them dry and therefore the folder does have a purpose. So it depends on the situation whether it deafeats the purpose or not.

Do elves ever chit-chat? Do they ever make small talk?

I don't think so...they have lots of time to plan out long conversations...although I could imagine the elves making small-talk out of big events... 'So, Galadriel, did you hear on the palantír news about sauron being defeated?' even though the War of the Ring affected them too..but...ah well.

*snackle*! That's hilarious!! I can just see all of the elder elves sitting around the Palantir like a TV and watching "The News"! Ha! Anywho... Random Pondering: If cats always land on their feet, and toast always lands butter side down. Then what would happen if you strapped a piece of buttered toast on the back of a cat and dropped it?

yes, but which way would the star face? North, right? but what if your tree didn't fit with the top of the tree *starts singing* take me to the top of the the tree *stops abruptly* sorry, Travis moment there. what is the top of the tree couldn't face north though, or if you had a really bad sense of direction and didn't know where north was? then maybe..it'd be offensive to different religions.. I mean..who knows how Allah would like it if you pointed a tree in the direction that his followers praise him? So, which way should the top of the tree be pointed?

erm... the tree would be floating in mid-air... rotating on its non-existant axis...

Random pondering: When I built a snow Pippin today, why did he keep losing his head? Does he have a death wish?

Post by Mippin on Feb 14, 2004 21:51:21 GMT -5
he kept losing his head, because he didn't have a snow Merry..and we all know Pippin would be lost without Merry, and vice versa.

But then Merry shouldn't of been lost because Pippin was there, so if Merry is lost without Pippin, then Pippin should be lost without Merry, so Pippin shouldn't a been there at all; he should have been lost, but I guess he was since his head fell off. ;D

Well, building a snow Pippin took me two and a half hours.... I have pictures.... But once I finished I was so cold I thought I would freeeze.... It was very un-lofty. I wanted to make a snow Faramir Took, but didn't get a chance. So sad. I'll make a snow Merry next year, perhaps. (It only snows here once a year, darn it!) Except now he's dead..... he split at the waist, down the middle, and his head fell off again.... he was so lost that he died.

aww, poor snow Pip! It doesn't snow here... -.- I suppose I could make a sand Pippin and a sand Merry here..but that would require going somewhere where there is sand..and that means that there'll be sun..and the sun is eeeeee-vile!!!

Why do people post the same Random Ponderings on different fora? Are they that absorbed with the question? Do they like reading people's weird answers?
If there was a plague of locusts and the Earth suddenly stopped spinning, would the locusts be flung into space?
