Dear MR BAGGINS, Fellow Conspirator,
I am Thorin Oakenshield, descendant of Thrain the Old and grandson
of Thror who was King under the Mountain. I am writing you to discuss
our plans, our ways, means, policy and devices for rescuing our
treasure from the dragon Smaug. — Stephen Granade riffs on the Nigerian e-mail scam (see 419 Eater).
