Lounge-a-gast, every time I see your new name, it reminds me of "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas". Good flick.

Rad switched his name about the same time as Tea left, right?

I'm just trying to stir up trouble, pay no attention to me.

RE: Where did radagast go?
switchback, Leisure Suit Larry is Larry the Lounge Lizard. I played his first game. I loved it. My computer was next to my bed, where we (me & my beau) slept. I would sit up all night in the dark playing that game.

It was so much fun to go into the bar where Larry would give the secret words to get him upstairs with the "girls of the evening". If you forgot to put a condom on him, his genital area would begin to pulse red and he would die.

I liked when you could go into the casino and play, when he went looking for love in the hotel, bought condoms and had a conversation on the public telephone.

what thread did Rad-a-zard say he was changing his name in? I missed that somewhere, (probably that one time I got up for just a second to get a beer). Just curious what made him change.

Not to add thickening to the pot but...

Did you notice how Tea almost idolized Radagast? Weird, eh? AND there were times when Tea wouldn't capitalize the word I. Coincidence? Hmmmm! AND how Radagast almost disappeared for a while and when he starting posting a lot again, Tea disappeared. Hmmmmm.....

Last seen headin' in opposite direction of US gov't. authorities. Believed to be ensconced in the "Golden Triangle" area of Myanmar training insurgents on boredom survival techniques. Or was the persona just always a cover for Osama Bin-Laden?

RE: Where did radagast go?
adagast was said to also have failed his mission, but it's tempting to think that his "failure" was not as bad as that of the others. The Essay on the Istari: "Indeed, of all the Istari, one only remained faithful, and he was the last-comer. For Radagast, the fourth, became enamoured of the many beasts and birds that dwelt in Middle-earth, and forsook Elves and Men, and spent his days among the wild creatures."
Radagast certainly never became evil. The above quote suggests, however, that his mission was not just to relate to wild creatures but also to build bridges between them and Elves and Men. He did, in fact, have his friends the birds gather much information, but since they were reporting to Saruman as the head of the Council that wasn't altogether helpful. On the other hand, it has often been suggested (though there is no direct textual evidence of any kind) that the way Eagles kept showing up at opportune times may have been partially his work.

We know nothing of what happened to Radagast after the end of the Third Age. It seems conceivable, though, given the more ambiguous nature of his failing, that he might have been allowed back to Valinor eventually.

RE: Where did radagast go?
He was the lizard
Of a thousand kings
And I chanced to meet him
One night wandering
He told me tales
And he drank my wine
Me and radagast
Kinda feeling fine

He had a cloak of gold
And eyes of fire
And as he ssspoke
I felt a deep desire
To free the world
Of its fear and pain
And help the people
To feel free again

Why don't we listen to
The voices in our hearts
?Cause then I know we'd find
We're not so far apart
Everybody's got to be happy
Everyone should sing
For we know the joy of life
The peace that love can bring

So spoke the lizard
In his mountain home
The vision of his wisdom
Means we'll never be alone
And I will dream of my magic night
And a million silver stars
That guide me with their light

RE: Where did radagast go?
Actually,
Literary scholars have recovered the original version of the Essay on the Ishtari. The phrase that Violin has down as:,
"For Radagast, the fourth, became enamoured of the many beasts and birds
that dwelt in Middle-earth,"

Contains a key error, the word is "breasts" not "beasts." Further, As scholar I.C. Globes has indicated, "Middle-earth" was once used as a cryptic code name for "Hooter" amongst pre-Istarite carousers.

Thus, the phrase should read

"For Radagast, the fourth, became enamoured of the many breasts and birds
that dwelt in Hooters,"

Violin, I'm currently reading LoTR and have been suprised at all of the subtle references on this board. Besides Rad, sarabelle's writing comes to mind.
