Was the ring made in China or Japan?

[ May 31, 2002: Message edited by: Gimli Son Of Gloin ]

Nevtalathiel · 05-30-2002, 07:58 AM

The ring was actually made in Taiwan, in a sweatshop where thousands of evil rings are churned ou every day.

Who, or what was Goldberry, and what did she do after Tom Bombadil gave up his immortality?

[ May 30, 2002: Message edited by: Nevtalathiel ]

Aosama, the Wandering Star · 05-30-2002, 08:25 AM

Goldberry was the One Ring's first name, and she dumped Tom Bombadil after he gave up immortality. This was because Rings can't live with mortals, and now Tom was mortal. Tom did not see the logic in this, and died of a broken heart and broken leg several years later. To this day, if in Middle-Earth one is called a "Goldberry", it is synonomous with our 'maneater'.
Who is Imrahil? (no really, who is he?)

Nevtalathiel · 05-30-2002, 08:31 AM

(Really, I think he was some relation of Boromir and a powerful dude in Gondor.)

Imrahil means "one who has been recorded" and the name is used to refer to influential people in Minas Tirith, as their names are written down in large book, along with their great deeds, such as "poked an orc in the eye" and "walked along the city walls naked".

Why do the Rohirrim like horses so much?

Aosama, the Wandering Star · 05-30-2002, 08:56 AM

Because cars hadn't been invented, and they were safer than broomsticks.
What does the name "Figwit" mean?

Nevtalathiel · 05-30-2002, 11:57 AM

Figwit is an abberviation of something said by Elrond after Isildur refused to climb the cracks of doom and throw in the ring. Elrond, in his rage, shouted out, "Forget it Isildur, Go Where I Tell (you)"

Who ate the last slice of mushroom pie?

piosenniel · 05-30-2002, 12:02 PM

Barliman Butterbur as he was cleaning up the common room.

Who sews the vests that Bilbo wears?

Daniel Telcontar · 05-30-2002, 12:34 PM

Bilbo only wears clothes made by the famous tailor Gollum. Once, though, Gollum thought Bilbo cheated him of his payment and his believed him to be a thief ever since.

What is Boromir's relation with Gondor?

Lothiriel Silmarien · 05-30-2002, 02:13 PM

Boromir was the cheese-eater inspector. His eccessive eating of poison-infested cheese partially contributed to his death.

What made Turin marry Nienor (or Niniel)?

Anarya SilverBranch · 05-30-2002, 04:27 PM

Turin married Nienor because her father was a major producer of chocolate easter bunnies, and he was loaded and turin needed money for his troops. Marrying her thus made it so Turin would inheirit the easter bunny empire and a lot of money would come his way.

What was illuvatar's other name?

[ May 30, 2002: Message edited by: Anarya SilverBranch ]

Aosama, the Wandering Star · 05-30-2002, 04:59 PM

Although he managed to conceal it from the Ainur, Illuvatar's other name was Galadriel. The Galadriel in the Lord of the Rings was his first and only fan, and she named herself after him.
What was Celebrian's relation to Arwen?

Nevfeniel · 05-30-2002, 07:05 PM

She was her hairdresser, who was very nosy. She always pressed Arwen for details about her relationship with Aragorn, then gave her (unwanted) opinion. Arwen eventually went to a different hairdresser after Celebrian started to ask her questions about her father. . .

Who was Nienna? (yes, I finally found the Silmarillion. Yay!)

Samwise · 05-30-2002, 09:56 PM

Nienna was the nice old lady who showed you what aisle the Silmarillion was on in her bookstore.

What is a neekerbreeker (really?)

Quote:

It was Sam's turn that day to take the first watch, but Aragorn joined him. The silence grew until even Sam felt it. The occasional movements of his feet became loud noises. Sam could hear his own joints creaking, if he stirred.

Gimli Son Of Gloin · 05-31-2002, 12:12 AM

A neekerbreek is an accronym of North Eastern Ent Killing, Eating, Running, Burning, Rolling, Etching, Extracting Klub

(seriously though I have no idea what one is)

Whom are all the wizards in the Wizards' Council?

Susan Delgado · 05-31-2002, 01:50 AM

Merlyn, Erasmus, Harry Houdini, Erana, Aziza, and one that has too many names to be able to put just one down here.
-------------------------------------
For what purpose did the council meet?

Kettle of fish · 05-31-2002, 02:11 AM

To exchange recipes and cooking tips.

What was the one ring made of?

Nevtalathiel · 05-31-2002, 02:41 AM

The one ring was made by the wizard's club, and was actually the world's smallest donut.

(Neekerbreekers were the gnat-like things which bit Sam, Frodo and Gollum on the Emyn Muil, I think)

How was the one ring made?

Daniel Telcontar · 05-31-2002, 06:01 AM

By using lots of baking powder and sugar. Then it was baked at 5000000000 degree celsius and then they put the inscription by using cream.

Who was the creator of the One RIng, and why did he create it?

Aosama, the Wandering Star · 05-31-2002, 09:22 AM

Aragorn created the One Ring as a present for Arwen. Celebrian, Arwen's hairstlyist, unfortunately got hold of the ring and decided to rule the world!
Who was Tuor?
(Neekerbreekers are the insects in the Midgewater Marshes, after Bree but before Weathertop. It's Sam name for them because of the sound they make)

Daniel Telcontar · 05-31-2002, 09:28 AM

Tuor was a man of trade, who sold swords to orcs in Beleriand. Unfortunately the Valar destroyed his business when they destroyed the orcs in Beleriand, so to compensate him they gave some land in Aman.

Why was Gimli allowed into Aman?

Naaramare · 05-31-2002, 10:15 AM

Because the pipes broke, and as everyone knows, elves are horrible plumbers. By the time Gimli got to the harbour, the toilets were all so overflowed (is that a word?) that the denizens of Aman fairly begged him to come in.

Why were Pippin and Merry allowed to go on the Quest?

Lothiriel Silmarien · 05-31-2002, 02:41 PM

They were allowed to go on the quest because Pippin always had a supply of beer and Merry was just the helpful sidekick who helped poor the beer into cups.

Why did Bilbo give the ring to Frodo?

Lothiriel Silmarien · 05-31-2002, 02:42 PM

AAHHHHH, I just have to say that I finally made it to a Shade of Carn Dum!!! FINALLY!

Gimli Son Of Gloin · 05-31-2002, 04:53 PM

Because he was drunk.

What was Saruman's part time job?

Gimli Son Of Gloin · 05-31-2002, 06:56 PM

Stalin's butler. He was trying to find out his secrets by working for him. Once he was searching Stalin's bedroom he found what he thought to be a peanut. He ate it and found himself in a place called "Middle Earth". In reality, that peanut was Stalin's greatest sercret. He had found a way to transport to parallel universes. Unfourtunetly for Saruman, you needed another one to get back to Russia.
=============================================
Whom was Saruman's mother?

Nevfeniel · 05-31-2002, 07:16 PM

The same person who mothered Humpty Dumpty and the Easter bunny: Eowyn! Some people think it is physically impossible, since Saruman was (supposedly) so much older than her, but,(being the mad scientist that she was) Eowyn created a portal into Middle Earth, in the shape of a peanut, and it transported her there a little while before Saruman was born. No one knows who the father is, but it is rumored to be either Santa Clause or Merlin.

In what way did the Nazgul scare people?

Gimli Son Of Gloin · 05-31-2002, 07:29 PM

they would hide in closets and jump out at people yelling "BOO:. Either that or they would point up to the sky and yell in a terrified voice "The Luffwaffe!!!!!!"
================================================== ==================
What is in the West?

Daniel Telcontar · 06-01-2002, 08:01 AM

The West is a Disney World. It has just been blown up to something cooler through commercials.

And to answer or former question, Gandalf was created with the valar and the maiar as an ainu, so he is pretty old.

Next question: Why does Gandalf use pointy hats?

Nevtalathiel · 06-01-2002, 08:20 AM

Pointy hats are very useful if you drop your sword, as you have a spare weapon on your head. It's also one of the criteria for getting into the wizard's club, and Gandalf, like all sensible people always gave in to peer pressure. That's why he left the Fellowship in Moria, the balrog was going "You don't want to hang out with these losers do you?" and Gandalf gave in and abandonned the rest of the Fellowship, cos the balrog was so much cooler.

What are the ingredients of the hobbit's favourite beer?

Daniel Telcontar · 06-01-2002, 09:32 AM

Snakes, mud and shiny rings. The only problem is, that snakes and rings are easy enough to get, but since most of the hobbits are so afraid of water, they very seldom go collect mud. The brandybucks, who do not fear water has made quite a profit from selling beer to innkeepers and landlords who where to afraid of water.

Why do hobbits eat six times a day?

Gimli Son Of Gloin · 06-01-2002, 10:54 AM

Who doesn't?
============================================
Why is Sam so loyal to Frodo?

Daniel Telcontar · 06-01-2002, 10:57 AM

Bilbo once payed for the the Gaffer's mortgage when they themselves had no money, and the Gaffer became Bilbo's gartner in return. Then Sam took over the job after his father, and he to has to be faithful to Frodo as a reminder of what Bilbo did for the Gaffer.

Why do wizards have a staff?

Lothiriel Silmarien · 06-01-2002, 12:24 PM

Wizards have staffs because they are lazy. Staffs support them when they walk because they are very old and will fall if they don't have it, and it's also a telephone. They order pizza and other stuff when they get to lazy to get it themselves.

Who has a crush on Eowyn?

Susan Delgado · 06-01-2002, 12:53 PM

Celeborn. But Eowyn has no idea and he's scared to death Galadriel will find out, so he usually stays by himself in his treetop palace and lets Galadriel handle any visitors, because she's very perceptive and he doesn't want to think what'll happen if Eowyn happens to come for a visit.
-------------------------------------------
What sort of gifts did Galadriel give to the various members of the Fellowship?

Aosama, the Wandering Star · 06-01-2002, 02:49 PM

Galadriel read their minds, and discovered that they all wanted to be in a rock band, but thought that the others would laugh if they said so. So she gave them all instruments, which were handed out alphabetically and as follows:
Aragorn- guitar (Galadriel had a crush on him and decided he should be in the spotlight)
Boromir- bass (Galadriel had this thing for alliteration)
Frodo- microphone (he's a singer)
Gandalf- drums (his staff became an extra drum-stick-thingy)
Legolas- violin (he was already used to a bow)
Merry: washboard (due to some rather rude jokes about the mirror of Galadriel, ie "is that where you do your laundry?")
Pippin- he annoyed Galadriel so much that he didn't get anything. Poor Pippin sulked for quite a long time, let me tell you.
Sam- Sam was last and got stuck with the cymbals. Didn't mind, as was told this was good for his anger management classes.
They called themselves "An Elf, A Dwarf, Two Humans and Four- no, wait, make that Three Hobbits". Pippin collected tickets, and met Diamond there. The other eight members of the Fellowship were a hit until Boromir died, at which they went into proper mourning then re-emerged with a new title: "An Elf, A Dwarf, A Man and Three Short People". Frodo, Sam, and Merry left the band soon after this, feeling that they were not appreciated. They welcomed Pippin into their new band, called "Hobbits Hit It". Both bands often met at "Battles of the Bands", and it was unsure which band was better. Finally, the fans of both bands got tired of it and forsook the bands. And so ended the Fellowship of the Ring in Middle-Earth.
Question: Who were Sauron's parents, and what was his embarrassing nickname as a child?

What does Mithrandir mean?

Gimli Son Of Gloin · 06-01-2002, 09:55 PM

Saurons parents were Zzar Nicholas and Zzaress Alexandra of Russia. the kids used to call him "You Yellow Bellied Forked Tounge Armpit" for the obvious reason; he had a yellow belly, a forked tounge, and he smelled like an armpit. When he got older he felt so dejected that he went to Yoga classes and became extremely flexible. He then disguised him self as dog and got back into Niddle Earth. You see, he smelled so bad he was exiled. Once back in Mordor he tried to rule the world, but failed.

Mithrandir means "Furry Toliet Seat" in Elvish.

To whom did the Palantir belong?

Rose, the youngest · 06-01-2002, 11:27 PM

And to answer or former question, Gandalf was created with the valar and the maiar as an ainu, so he is pretty old. Next question: Why does Gandalf use pointy hats? __________________ Two beer or not two beer, that is the question; by Shakesbeer

It's also one of the criteria for getting into the wizard's club, and Gandalf, like all sensible people always gave in to peer pressure. That's why he left the Fellowship in Moria, the balrog was going "You don't want to hang out with these losers do you?" and Gandalf gave in and abandonned the rest of the Fellowship, cos the balrog was so much cooler. What are the ingredients of the hobbit's favourite beer? __________________ "You can go a long way with a smile. You can go even further with a smile and a gun." - Al Capone

The only problem is, that snakes and rings are easy enough to get, but since most of the hobbits are so afraid of water, they very seldom go collect mud. The brandybucks, who do not fear water has made quite a profit from selling beer to innkeepers and landlords who where to afraid of water. Why do hobbits eat six times a day? __________________ Two beer or not two beer, that is the question; by Shakesbeer

Then Sam took over the job after his father, and he to has to be faithful to Frodo as a reminder of what Bilbo did for the Gaffer.

Staffs support them when they walk because they are very old and will fall if they don't have it, and it's also a telephone. They order pizza and other stuff when they get to lazy to get it themselves.

But Eowyn has no idea and he's scared to death Galadriel will find out, so he usually stays by himself in his treetop palace and lets Galadriel handle any visitors, because she's very perceptive and he doesn't want to think what'll happen if Eowyn happens to come for a visit. ------------------------------------------- What sort of gifts did Galadriel give to the various members of the Fellowship? __________________ "Man as a whole, Man pitted against the universe, have we seen him at all 'til we see that he is like a hero in a fairy tale?"

So she gave them all instruments, which were handed out alphabetically and as follows: Aragorn- guitar (Galadriel had a crush on him and decided he should be in the spotlight) Boromir- bass (Galadriel had this thing for alliteration) Frodo- microphone (he's a singer) Gandalf- drums (his staff became an extra drum-stick-thingy) Legolas- violin (he was already used to a bow) Merry: washboard (due to some rather rude jokes about the mirror of Galadriel, ie "is that where you do your laundry?") Pippin- he annoyed Galadriel so much that he didn't get anything. Poor Pippin sulked for quite a long time, let me tell you. Sam- Sam was last and got stuck with the cymbals. Didn't mind, as was told this was good for his anger management classes. They called themselves "An Elf, A Dwarf, Two Humans and Four- no, wait, make that Three Hobbits". Pippin collected tickets, and met Diamond there. The other eight members of the Fellowship were a hit until Boromir died, at which they went into proper mourning then re-emerged with a new title: "An Elf, A Dwarf, A Man and Three Short People". Frodo, Sam, and Merry left the band soon after this, feeling that they were not appreciated. They welcomed Pippin into their new band, called "Hobbits Hit It". Both bands often met at "Battles of the Bands", and it was unsure which band was better. Finally, the fans of both bands got tired of it and forsook the bands. And so ended the Fellowship of the Ring in Middle-Earth. Question: Who were Sauron's parents, and what was his embarrassing nickname as a child?
