Hmmm, I'd have to do the numbers but I'll give it to you as all the book said was Frodo was still in his "tweenes", the irresponsible twenties.

It's on page one of book one for those who couldn't locate the answer.

GOOD ON YOU LOTESSE. YUGO!!!!!!!

102, IIRC.

Spock,

Your answer, while logical, is cruel. My fault for not attacking it from the proper direction.

Was the 007 film good? Which film was it?

Is that a trick question? Gandalf never wore The One Ring - anyway, he already has his own ring, the one with the ruby set in it.

What is WRONG with me?! Not Gandalf - Tom Bombadil - nothing happened after he tried on the One Ring, he just danced around and giggled, or something.

Correct.

I was hoping Tom's other name might make this a little more challenging.

Your turn.

Cool, thanx Mithrandir.

What sarcastic nickname did Ferny call Aragorn as the Hobbits and he were leaving Bree?

You mean, specifically or in a more broad sense? I mean, this question can be interpreted in different ways.

IIRC, the answer is stated in the text.

To answer your specific question, I would mean specifically.

O.K., let me think - was it when Bilbo first picked up and pocketed the Ring in Gollum's cave?
