Re: The Tolkien Translation Game!

Is it more like "I would not use it except in great need"? I know thats referring to the ring, but it feels like a close fit.

Is it Third Age?

Re: Hamas' "50th Anniversary" Attack on Israel

Not sure that a New Testament quote was the right allusion to use in this instance Can you imaging if Jesus was around today. You'd have people ranting that the Prodigal son wasn't "lost", he was a wastrel who went on an irresponsible bender; and he wasn't "found", he came crawl...

Re: Hamas' "50th Anniversary" Attack on Israel

Among the released hostages was a 9yo Irish-Israeli Emily Hand. Her family initially believed her to be among the murdered children. The Taoiseach (Irish Prime Minister) Leo Varadkar said: "An innocent child who was lost has now been found." This provoked many angry replies, including Isr...

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions

Ok, I'm pretty happy with this. You would think with that many letters on first guess it would be easy, but I wanted to get it in two, so I didn't guess till I was sure.

Re: Hamas' "50th Anniversary" Attack on Israel

I also think the people of Gaza have a responsibility to help Israel find the hostages and stop the terrorists. Doing so would only help themselves. If there are terrorists hiding in my neighborhood, and an army is coming to kill those terrorists, I am absolutely helping that army to finish the tas...

Re: Hamas' "50th Anniversary" Attack on Israel

I don't think anyone's claiming that Hamas are "good guys". Its more that the circumstances which breeds people like Hamas are of Israeli making. Nobody thought the IRA were "good guys" but they existed and thrived because of the appalling discrimination in Northern Ireland. This...

Re: Hamas' "50th Anniversary" Attack on Israel

Not to be argumentative but who exactly are the good guys in this case? It seems to have been definitively decided in the US Media but not so much outside of the US

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions

No I play too, but I don't tend to post my scores. Do you have the same issues, Alatar? Do you have tips for managing the challenge of different English word spellings? I've not been posting my scores either because I'm pretty boring/mostly 3's. No its nothing like that, I just find the cutting and...
