You're going camping? Or you've bought the boys a PlayStation and are teaching them how to play Call of Duty 4, and it turns out they're good at camping?

We're returning to the Inn of the Shire for today's four lines.

Camping
"I expected you back a long time ago," said Gandalf, seeming to the air as his thousand-yard stare looked out at vistas only he could see. "And I see you stole one of the Rings of Power from the Elves. We shall have to return it, so go and prepare for camping in Rivendell."
As Samwise's corpse toppled sideways again, and Tomfool attempted to shore it up without being obvious, Gandalf added, "and bring Samwise with you too."

Greg - ah, video game campers. I remember the days when I hated them with a passion. Seems like forever ago now.

And yes, we took the boys camping for a night at Kettle River on Thursday. Other than the mostly sleepless night, which was not entirely unexpected, it was a good time.

Hah. This is darkly hilarious. Bravo :D
