Random Review Redux Part Three-do: Let the Discord decide.
It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Mordor – Download the mp3 here (Original Tune: “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas” by Meredith Wilson) Parody lyrics by Gordon McDonald & Jon Meek
It’s beginning to look a lot like Mordor Everywhere we go Takes a looks at that Mountain of Doomses, it’s looming and bringing us gloomses With craggy peaks and lava river flows
It’s beginning to look a lot like Mordor Orcses by the scoreses! But a horrific sight to see is Sauron’s eye that will be Searching for you (us!) once more
A pair of Uruk helmses and stinky clotheses Is the wish of Master and the stupid, fat one! Maggots get stuck and go on a ruck Is the hope of Gorbag and Shag And Aragorn can hardly wait for the Gate to open again (Oh we don’t likes him do we Precious? No!)
It’s beginning to look a lot like Mordor Everywhere you look around There’s a spider in Cirith Ungol, a tricksy false Smé-a-gol (That’s us!) He’s the sneaky one that doesn’t make a sound
It’s beginning to look a lot like Mordor Soon the Wraithses will scream And the thing that’ll make ‘em sing is by putting on the Precious Haunts our every dream!
But a horrific sight to see is Sauron’s eye that will be Searching for you (us!) once more!
Special Guests: I don’t know half of them half as well as I would like.

Memories
By: Gordon McDonald
Memories go ever on and on
Over post and under tweet
In basements where ne’er sun has shone
By ‘casters on rare occasion meet
Over Winter Special’s song
Through Merry Pippin Christmas’ tune
Over quest and Discord throng
Against enemy card effect immune
Memories go ever on and on
Under tale of ice cream fav
Yet stories that wandering have gone
Turn at last ‘till point is made
Hands that decks have craft and hewn
And tested along the Anduin
Feel their last Burden and Boon
And come to rest at last, within
Memories go ever on and on,
From the ‘cast where it began
Now far ahead new memories dawn
And we must follow, if we can
Pursuing them with open hearts
Until we join again someday
Where many games and quests depart
And whither then? I cannot say
