The legacy of J.R.R. Tolkien

I raise a frothy pint to you, professor Tolkien. May the path of your afterlife’s journey be paved only with grand adventures, hearty and full plates and cups, even heartier friends, and only the richest pipe-weed. And may that golden sun never set on the horizon you created and gave to us all from your mind’s eye, from that humble little path you set out on long ago, now extending infinitely onwards.
