We just need some pajama-clad bloggers scaling the mountain next to it, or perhaps just a few Times Roman letters (packed suspicously close together).

Not bad conceptually, but the production might run into some trouble in other areas -- for example, Frodo and Sam just wouldn't look nearly as spectacular wearing pajamas and punching away at a keyboard.

On the other hand, Dan Rather would make a credible Saruman, as he already seems to be isolated in a tower of aloofness, and has taken to pulling stories from a crystal ball.

It began with the forging of the Great Memos.... blinded by their partisanship, they took them without question.

Now all we need is Mary Mapes huddled protectively over an IBM Selectric hissing "My Preciousssssss."

Wonderful! I loved Damian's comment!

Let's not forget that there were initially six memos, but two of them were lost forever.

It never ceases to amaze me when two people think of the same thing at roughly the same time.

But the minds of men are easily swayed, for the memo holds the power to deceive, and could only be destroyed by casting it back into the fires of Mount Word from whence it was forged!

Whoever held the memo was corrupted, and the memo had been now with Kerry for days without count. The memo Twisted and turned random whims into policies and made Kerry hide from the press. Driven mad thinking about tax rises Kerry was always exclaiming "what's in their pocketses?"

Hey? Wasn't the script on the Ring in Times New Roman (Elvish Character Set)?
