sorry, Morsul, I can't remember. I was just generally wandering around Google Image search and came across it. I copy all my Crazy captions images into Photo bucket before posting them as that means that everyone can see the picture... I think.
Anyway, I digress... Gloin: Just admit it, Elrond, my hair is better than yours! OR Legolas: Look! You are a dwarf! Gloin: Who's Captain obvious here? Aragorn: He's a corporal now.

Gloin is obviously past his prime when during the middle of the council he poses the question, "Wait a minute! We are talking about a ring of power? I thought this was all about a spring of powder!"

The actor playing Gloin is stunned when after spending 3 weeks in make-up he is told that his part is reduced to sitting silently in a chair.
"But the cosy chat at the feast with Frodo, the speech at the council..." "gone,gone, gone..."

This is why Saruman had to turn to evil: to forestall getting fat and braiding his beard most unbecomingly.

*decides the picture is actually Gandalf*
Gandalf: This is the LAST time I let Gimli do my hair. OR *perhaps Legolas?* Legolas: Hey, Gandalf! Look what you did! I was pretty before you went and uncloaked!

A typical reaction to Elrond's request for a Rivendell Santa.

Elrond thought his disguise was perfect, but there was something about the eyebrows that always gave him away...

Rivendel decided to hire a real dwarf to play Santa this year, mainly so he would have a real beard. To their great surprise, the dwarf shows up with a fake beard!
Dwarf: "Hey, you can't play Santa without a fake beard!" OR This is Gandalf on a not-good-but-not-bad hair day. You don't even want to think about what a truly bad hair day looks like. OR PJ awakens to find that a disgruntled actor has glued a beard to his face. OR Dwarf: "Hair-cut? What's a hair-cut?"

Bilbo: That gloin! The first time I clapped eyes on the little fellow bobbing and puffing on the mat, I had my doubts! He looks more like a grocer than a warrior!
Gloin: Eh? What? Sorry, But I am a grocer now.

Gloin winces with every movement he makes, as he realises he has accidentally caught up some of his abundant chest hair into his beard braid.

In one of his fiendishly cunning disguises, Ugluk gatecrashes the Council of Elrond...
UGLUK: (adjusting false beard) Give Ring to Saruman! He is both Wise and Powerful! I command! Or There was an old Dwarf with a beard Who said, "It is just as I feared! An Elf and two men Four hobbits and then A Wizard, have styled my beard!"

The stink of Aragorn turned Gimli's beard white.
OR Gloin: Why do you want to go around with that Legolas? Gimli: He makes me look intelligent. Gloin: Fare enough.

Gloin: "Now, where did I put my eyebrows."
OR Gimli's alter ego, Gimla! Notice the died hair and braided beard? Sure signs of cross-dressing! OR "...I left my body standing somewhere in the sands of time." Gloin: "Yes, ahem, where is my body, exactly?" OR Gloin: "What most people don't realize about the beard is that you can hide your pipeweed in here!"

The Pilgrims started a tradition when they sat down nervously to eat with uncivilized savages...a tradition we continue today as we dine with our relatives & in-laws. This particular picture is one that Hookbill found of *insert Downer's name*'s mother-in-law.

Gloin saw the one thing he did not expect in Rivendel; Break-dancing Orcs.
OR Gloin didn't really expect Elrond to get the whole council to join in the 'hockey-kockey' (I don't know if that is how you spell it) OR yet Gloin: Well, despite Gandalf uncloaking, Elrond dancing and Legolas pointing out the obvious, Rivendel isn't as bad as it was last time I was here. *Hears Tra-la-la-lally* I take it back. It's worse.

Famous last words:

Gloin has been offered a choice: a stockpile of gold, or a succulent(sp) feast. Hmm.... choices, choices, choices.
OR A hobbit?! Looks like a footstool to me. OR Rip Van Gandalf.

Gloin: Eh! What's this lad doing? Why does he think he's so funny by replacing me?
Bilbo decided a new security system was in order so his things didn't "disappear" during this party. Or At the Spa of Bywater Merry: What! This is the mangers special? I was expecting something a bit more relaxing. Or Farmer Maggots had spent too much time with Saruman and decided to create his own hybrid, he crossed Ents with his dogs and sent them to guard his crops from hobbits that would steal his mushrooms.

Bilbo and the three trolls decided to make a quartet which rocked Middle Earth until three days after when, mysteriously, the lead vocalist went missing.
In other news Mr. B. Huggins would like to announce his new brand of chili. OR Bilbo: But da'rs sh-no blood in my ale, officers! OR Bilbo: Imagine it! As far as the eye can see elves that you can squash into lo-carb, high protein, fast acting, muscle growing, arthritis curing, sinus clearing, omega-D carrying, vitamin rich, better-than-your-mother-makes it chili! Huggins: It's almost too good to be real...*sniff*

This is why Bilbo never went to visit the Sack-vill-Bagginses.
OR Aragorn's family was always eager to supply all the needs of their guests.
