I was on RuPaul’s Drag Race and the first maxi challenge was to do stand-up comedy. John Mulaney was one of the contestants, and somehow he was the first one eliminated on the COMEDY challenge. That’s tough. John Mulaney, sashay away.
'Farewell, Aragorn! Go to Minas Tirith and save my people! I have failed.'
'No!' said Aragorn, taking his hand and kissing his brow. 'You have conquered. Few have gained such a victory. Be at peace! Minas Tirith shall not fall!'
Boromir smiled.
This makes me so emotional. Aragorn comforting a companion in his deathbed, knowing exactly what to say. Boromir dying with a smile on his lips.
But also, if “Minas Tirith shall not fall” is a comfort and a promise, I do believe Aragorn means it very deeply when he says he has conquered a victory few have gained. Boromir was tempted by the Ring. He was tempted, and he fell for it, and he saw the error of his ways and came back from it. Not many people have managed to do that.
Etho lore drop on the Scar/Cleo stream right now. Apparently Etho won decked out with a BROKEN space bar, which HE STILL HAS to go along with the infamous Tissue Microphone Stand
February 26th 1936 - Charlie Chaplin and Paulette Goddard aboard the S.S. Coolidge make a one day stopover in Hawaii before sailing onto to Yokohama Japan.
When the ship pulled into Hawaii they were greeted by Hawaiian Duke Kahanamoku (birth name Duke) considered the father of modern surfing. Duke was also an Olympic Gold medalist in swimming participating in the 1912, 1920 and 1924 Olympics.
For the people reading the book for the first time: the section about Pippin and Merry comes from a much later chapter. So when Aragorn makes the choice to follow the orcs, neither them nor you have any idea if they are right. For a long time.You are all going off on faith and blind hope.
