Q: Do you think that Sauron's eye ever got poked or flew into by a bird?
A: But of course! Lots of times, almost everyday - there being constantly dark in Mordor, that is... and mainly by Nazgul, not birds, King of Angmar being mostly painful, crown above unseen head et al... Why do you think it was called the red eye, um? edit: cross-posted with Nogrod, but leaving things be (I like my version better ) To Norgrods question, than: Q: How is Ilúvatar fighting against boredom in the eternity A: He creates Ainur and they sing. There is no time in eternity, so they may be singing there always, despite what happens down here. From time to time, when he gets bored with just sitting, he stands up and makes exercise for his arms and facial muscles - now smiles, than raises his left hand, and than again his right and so forth Q: What was Denethor watching in his Palantir by nights?

Q: Why do the Elves never run out of arrows?
A: Thing is, though almost all elves are experienced yogis, still running on arrow-heads (equally as on broken glass or hot coals) is painful, so they never run out of them, but just walk out of arrows with dignity, smiling abstractedly... Q: What kind of fish inhabited Gollum's lake?

Q: Why are Balrogs made of shadow and fire?
A: Because no one is sure if they're male or female they couldn't decide whether to say they were made of sugar and spice or slugs and snails, and so they made up a new option. Q: Why is Tom Bombadil?

Why wasn't Smaug a giant butterfly instead of a dragon?Because JRR Tolkien was deathly afraid of butterflies.

A He gave them a 2 hour sitting for prelimminary sketches and then used a body double. Q Why does Bill the Pony return to Bree where he was badly treated rather than Rivendell where he was well treated?
