Selected-By: m-atkinson@nwu.edu (Michael A. Atkinson) The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was: > I'm looking for some good onion rings. Do you have a good recipe, or do > you know a good place to find some? And in response, thus spake the Oracle: } Well, the recipe for making them was lost during the Second Age of } Middle Earth, but the following ancient poem does tell where to } find them: } } Tree-rings for the Elven kings in the wood, } Napkin rings for the Dwarf-lords at a feast; } Herrings for fishermen (smoked are good), } Onion rings, with slaw and rare roast beast. } In the land of Mordor, where the shadows lie. } } Onion rings to rule them all, } Onion rings to find them, } Onion rings to bring them all and in the darkness bind them. } In the land of Mordor, where the shadows lie. } } You owe the Oracle a crowned rack of lembas.
