sorry to spoil it for those of you who call yourselves Tolkien fans, but are too lazy to read the Silmarillion....

Hey, this guy must have lurked in the Hobbit Hole.....

Don't worry, I know this was written before the HH existed...

HA! - I resemble that remark! - Looks like he got a lot of emails about the "luck" thing.

I was giggling before, because he was talking about relying on luck and he hadn't even gotten to the eagles saving them from the trees! I always thought that was the "luckiest" of all the events in the story, and he would blow a gasket! Now that he is there he just blows it off! - "Oh - good, the eagles came!"
