k8cre8.livejournal.com In some ways, today’s story has been years in the making. I have thought about this particular “What if” for at least two decades. I always wanted to do something with the idea, but, this was before there was such a thing as the Word of the Day. I’m not sure how I didn’t put it together before yesterday, that they were made for each other, but, that’s sometimes how my brain works. Anyway, the idea is simple: The Lord of the Rings would’ve been so very, very different if the fellowship had just had cars.
( Will there be nut logs at Stucky's? )
revehent ( REV – eh – hint ) verb. Latin carrying back.
A straight-forward word origin, from the Latin "re" plus "veho," which means "carry, bear or convey back."
And, before you ask, no, I didn't. When I had the idea of giving the heroes cars, it never occurred to me that the villains might have cars, too. I simply always imagined they trucked the thing to Mordor, and dropped it off after a few days driving, no muss, no fuss.
