It's slightly a long one, and I promise it was all said by one person. I do love this quote.

"The Cracks of Doom. Well, if Master knows how to find them, I don't.
There you are! It's all /_u_t_/ useless. /_e/_a_d/_o/_i_s_l_/.
You are the /_o_l/,/_o_n_/o_/h_p_n_/a_d/_o_l_n_/.
You would have laid down and gone to sleep together days ago,
If you hadn't been so /_o_g_d/. But you'll die just the same, or worse.
You might just as well lie down now and give it up. You'll never get to the top anyway.
I'll get there, if I leave everything but my bones behind.
And I'll carry Mr. Frodo up myself, if it breaks my back and heart.
So stop /_r_u_n_/!/"

Midge · 06-09-2010, 06:38 PM

Good start. Only one mistake - the "would" about 4/5 lines down.

"The Cracks of Doom. Well, if Master knows how to find them, I don't.
There you are! It's all quite useless. He said so himself.
You are the fool, going on hoping and fooling.
You could have laid down and gone to sleep together days ago,
If you hadn't been so /_o_g_d/. But you'll die just the same, or worse.
You might just as well lie down now and give it up. You'll never get to the top anyway.

/_o_l_n_/

"Fooling" is wrong, but all the other adds are correct.

Count Comfect · 06-11-2010, 11:40 AM

toiling? dogged?

Midge · 06-11-2010, 06:20 PM

Both are correct! Only one more word!

Nobody for the last word? It shouldn't be too hard, given the context!

***Valandil*** · 06-18-2010, 11:06 PM

I've been looking at it... I'm stumped!

Midge · 06-24-2010, 12:17 AM

Hints:

It's a present tense action verb.
It's been going on in the quote (hence the context).
You probably tell your kids this on a fairly regular basis (unless they're amazingly well-behaved).

I made these to be what I feel is extremely easy because I feel it's been far too long!

***Valandil*** · 06-24-2010, 01:20 AM

I keep thinking 'grumbling' - but that doesn't fit...

Midge · 06-24-2010, 02:18 PM

No, that's not it.

***Varnafindë*** · 06-24-2010, 04:42 PM

I've been thinking, "Now, what consonant can go before that r up there" - and finally it hit me that it shouldn't be a consonant at all!
The word is 'arguing'!

***Valandil*** · 06-25-2010, 03:04 AM

Varnafinde - I think you must be right. That works!

I kept skipping 'a' and starting with 'b' - and going from there.

Midge · 06-25-2010, 11:58 PM

YES! So stop arguing!

Your turn, Varna! Well done!

***Varnafindë*** · 06-26-2010, 02:37 AM

A nice little quote, which I enjoy for reasons that I might share later, besides being fun ...

Midge · 06-30-2010, 07:27 PM

He's in and out of Bag End.

***Varnafindë*** · 07-01-2010, 07:38 AM

He is indeed. Correct so far.

Count Comfect · 07-01-2010, 10:14 PM

Crazy about?

***Varnafindë*** · 07-02-2010, 01:58 PM

Correct!
