Well it did get left at the bottom of a river once, does that count?

As I recall that was accidental

I would tend to disagree... if I remember correctly, the Ring was treacherous and slipped off Isildur's finger as he tried to escape the ambush by swimming the river...with the intent of making it's way back to it's master... Don't have the text available at work...someone want to verify this please?...

I suppose I should have said "accidental" on Isildur's part. Coffee hasn't quite kicked in yet...maybe I need a second cup! Tricksy ring!

Are you saying that the Ring is ALIVE!?!?!? Come now my good dwarf we are beings of reason and science! *scoff* *scoff*
