Not ambition - desires. The Ring can give you, or so it seems, whatever you want. For Gollum, that's fish. To Boromir, saving Minas Tirith. For Sam, a garden. To Galadriel, a kingdom that would not fade... it's just that many people's desire is for politcal power, so it seems the Ring is offering that only. At least that's how I see it.

By the way, I'm doing the Smeagol Victory Dance - I got 700!

I noticed that! :) Watch out for the cracks... Dancing Smeagols have a tendency to fall in.

And maybe since Hobbits (even Smeagol) aren't politically ambitious, they weren't corrupted by it or the corruption took longer.

Now, I don't know what would have happened if you gave the ring to Paladin, Thain of the Shire. A Took as a dark lord? Hmmmm....

Congratulations, who do you suppose will get #4100 this time? For that matter who got it last time? My guess is that it will happen in the second half of April!!

For Gollum, that's fish..

How can you not love the little guy? I mean, he had in his possession something that would make him master of the universe... and all he wants is some fish. Fresh fish... BTW don't you just love his song in The Two Towers. Fish... the ultimate drug.
