Well, maybe just to keep the game going...
Mari Goldstien took no time relating where whe wanted to go--she was very excited when her cousin told her he would take her anywhere for her birthday! "Redbo, okay? I want to go to Redbo!" "You mean Redbal." Roger corrected. "But, same difference. Ruth, get the car started, won't you? " There are...10 words to be found in there--some directly related to LOTR and some--sort of.

Umm...I found Balrog, Took, Red Book, and Ent. I found a couple of phonetics, but I'm not sure if they're supposed to be in there. If they are, then there's also Aragorn, and Tengwar that I have gotten.

I also got Ingwe and Sam phonetically. And with correct spelling, Eru and maybe... Marigold? (Rosie's sister, as far as I can remember)

Hm....all are right except the phonetics, there were meant to be none.
Also, Marigold is correct, but she's my--er--Sam's little sister. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Sam is in there, but not phonetically, the name is just there. There are...3 words left that sort-of/kind-of have to do with LOTR, and one more proper name that's actually there 3 times by my count. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Yes, stupid me, of course Sam is there - what was I thinking? [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
As for the last name - is that Ted? I have no idea though as to the LOTR realted words. Anyone else? Or maybe a hint, Samwise?

S'okay.
Yes, the name is Ted. Let's see...hints. One of the words is an event--actually pretty important to LOTR. One has to do with a few of the hobbits in the Fellowship. One--sort of has to do with both Arwen and Bilbo. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Some of the hobbits of the Fellowship are cousins. (thanks to hint no.2).
As for Arwen and Bilbo...still pondering on that one... Gold maybe?

Yes, cousins is one.
As for the Bilbo/Arwen one... The word is part of a song, and also a name associated with Arwen. That probably totally gave it away, but oh, well. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Star is it--as in Arwen Evenstar and the portion of Bilbo's song that goes, "I see the star upon your mast."
Hm. That was a group effort. Who would like to take the next confusing word-thingy?

*jumps up and down* Me, me, me!
Nina stared roguishly at Jacque. "What do you mean, we're going to the Midwest? It's March! We should be going to Germany!" Jacque grinned, a little timidly. "It's not that far. Things will work out, you'll see. Just trust me on this one." Nina glared at him and stomped angrily out of the room. Four words to be found. One is an actual word, two are places, and one is an abbreviation for one of his books. [ August 26, 2003: Message edited by: Horse-Maiden of the Shire ]

All I can find is 'edro' -which I suppose is the word, and Farthing - one of the places. This is really a tough one. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

You've got edro, Farthing, and Westmarch. But the last one remains to be found...

So, all that is left is the abreviation of a book?
All I can find then is UT: "oUT of the room"

Mariska, you intelligent little Elf. UT is correct. Hmm...seeing that everyone gave the same effort, one of you may continue.

Since Evisse got two and Mariska and I only got one, it's only fair that she takes it, unless of course she doesn't want to in which case I'd be happy to mess with people's heads. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] Just kidding- I'd be nice and let Mariska do it.

Okay, I've got one made, and since this thread is shifting slowly to the bottom of the page, I'll just post mine. (Especially since it was quite fun to make!)
"Let's go golf." "No, I hate golfing." "Please, Arthur, for me?" "No!" shouted Arthur. "Oh, don't cry, Amy... Fine. Golfing it is." "Ooh, yay! I'll put the clubs in the car." "We've got to take your car." "Why?" "There's a mutt in mine!" Okay, one word concerning Trolls, one concerning Elves, and three proper nouns. Fea

Yes for mutton and of course Fingolfin. No for the others. Three to go.

Eep, sorry. I made a mistake. Only two proper nouns (people, places, yada yada) So far we have Mutton and Fingolfin. And I'll give clues to the other two words:
They both are important to certain popular Elves. They are both spelled correctly. Fea

Since this seems to be harder than I thought, here's another hint:

Since it doesn't look like anyone's gonna get the last one, it's 'Formenos'. That's what I meant by "ooh, Horsemaiden, you're so close!". Either Mariska, Samwise, or Evisse can take the next one.
