They heard that the Balrog's New Year's party was off da heezy, so they decided to come join him. They brought some barrels of ale, carried by dear Bill the Pony, but the sign outside said, "No ponies allowed!" so they had to leave the ale behind. Sniff.

He wants to know their secret to immortality, beauty, and pointy ears, and in the process of researching those things, he found out a lot of other neat stuff about elves. Therefore he came to like them.
How did the nine mortal kings become ringwraiths?

Because, once upon a time, a nasty old Orc told Bullroarer Took to go crawl into a hole. The Took, although he was strong in body, was not strong in mind, and took the insult quite literally. Hobbits follow the tradition.

The glue factory. They were getting ready to lower him into the vat when Gandalf stopped the proceedings and put magic spells on Shadowfax to make him so fine.

Bilbo bought it at Mordor Jewlery Inc, but it had a chip on the edge and he made Frodo take it back for a refund.

It's a variation of the word "halter," and they named Haldir after it because when he was little, he took horseback lessons, and he ALWAYS had to have a halter on his horse Binky. He had a terrible phobia of bridles, and whenever he saw one would burst into tears and run away screaming. So, as a comfort, his parents named him Halter. He didn't want to be named after a horse's headgear, so he pouted until his mother made it more exotic and therefore he became Haldir.

Pippin liked to help Legolas toilet-paper Elrond's house. They would sneak over late at night to pull the prank, then ring the door bell and dash off after leaving a vat of chocolate pudding on the door step. Elrond would come out, step into the pudding, and then see the white banners flapping from his trees. Soon he found out about the two trouble makers and made the Fellowship leave Rivendell a whole month early.

Well, the truth is, he and Merry were really bored while everyone else were in meetings all the time, so, to the great vexation of all the Elves and a large portion of the other people in Rivendell, the miscreants went around TPing all the buildings and trees and things. It was all Pippin's idea though; why do you think Gandalf was so annoyed at him all the time?

Whoops, double post (remarkably similar, though, weren't they? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img])
We only think Gollum talks to himself. Really, he's talking to his imaginary friend. His friend knows the truth, of course, but he thinks Gollum is kinda pathetic, so he doesn't want to disappoint him. Question as above.

They were flying inflatable devices, filled with Saurons evil black breath. Their names were Hideous, Repulsive, Disgusting, Evil, Foul, Wicked, and Demonic.
What were some of the favorite foods of the various members of the Fellowship?

The Fellowship went to the mall first because Legolas told the other eight that he wouldn't be caught dead a bunch of un-trendy wierdos. Aragorn cried at first, but the others calmed him down and piled into Gandalf's Volkswagon Bug and drove to the mall. They were all really stylin' when they left, but they almost had to pawn off the One Ring to pay the bill.

Gandalf wore a pointy hat because, due to an inferiority complex he developed in the West, he always wanted to seem taller. He is currently getting counseling.

They were wandering around because they were looking for a Mr. Sub, but they realized the Domino's Pizza was waaaay better. So they started teaching the trees to tap dance, and the trees followed them all over.

Lobelia often payed Sam to get some good information to gossip with. Like the time he overheard the thirty-two-year-old Frodo ask Bilbo to tuck him in and tell him a bedtime story because Frodo was afraid that there were Nazgûl under the bed and in the closet.
