Well, as long as you're willing to share.

I find Gollum's quotes fit into virtually any conversation with ease

As for EW, take him, he's all yours. He was a disappointment to me

Sorry about that. Perhaps you'll find Gollum more to your taste.

No thanks, I'd rather eat my own tail first!

I'd just like to take this opportunity to complain that Tolkien didn't really include rodents in his masterpieces. An omission that, I'm sure you'll all agree, makes his work suffer somewhat.

*squeak*

Yes, think how much better The Hobbit would've been if Gerbils were included in the Five Armies!

Gerbil, I ain't touching that last post with a twenty-foot pole!

Oh, and FrodoFriend, thanks for the neat lumpy watch! Love the "dangling sticks of TNT" motif!

Yes, it would have been the battle of the 5 and a quarter armies!
The orcs would have suffered huge losses at the paws of our elite guard - powerful monstrosities towering over 7 inches in height. Beorn has nothing on us lot!

Also, we'd be very useful in LotR - image a gerbil ring-bearer? He could sneak right into mordor no probs, presumably wearing the ring as a belt.

Rodents are not just incredibly cute, but practical too!

Tom Bombadil There was TOO rodents in the Trilogy

Gerbil, you must have missed the fact that Wormtongue was a weasel and Saruman turned out to be a rat. (Sorry--the best I could do) :-)

That's OK

In the film I wore a costume and was the ferret in the guy's pocket in the Prancing Pony (I wasn't given a credit, I was disgusted).
I was also the stunt double for the Moth scene. Apparently the moth was scared of heights so I strapped on some wings and threw myself off of Orthanc. Now that REALLY hurt.

Expect a few cameos of me in Ithilien too, and possibly a few of me scurrying around in the Paths of the Dead and the Pass of Cirith Ungol.

LOL, good point, ragamuffin!

Hey, bropous, if you light a match near it it plays some miniature Gandalf-fireworks!

But all you'd have to do to foil a Gerbil Ring-bearer is stick him a wheel . . . he'd think he was getting to Mordor but in reality he would just be going around and around and around and around and around and around and around and . . .

Good one, fellas...good one.

**walks back into the Thread room to find no one there...**

Hmm...I'll leave a little note.

**scribbles something on a piece of notebook paper and tapes it to the Thread's fridge...**

They should see that Alright...I'll be on my way now to school in about...fifteen minutes. Damn. I gotta wait here that much longer?

**waits twelve minutes**

Ooh, I better be going.

**walks out, closing the door softly behind her**

(Suddenly a camera zooms in on the note that has been taped to the Thread's fridge. Written on it in mostly big captial letters is...)

PEOPLE DO NOT ALL LIKE THE SAME THING. GROW UP YOU CHILDISH EXCUSES FOR ADULTS. AT LEAST I'M STILL A TEENAGER, I HAVE A RIGHT TO BE STUPID (that's includes all my other fellow teenagers ). BROPOUS, THOUGH, YOU'RE COOL DUDE. WORD.

ALL YOU GUYS KNOW I'M SH**ING YOU,
ROGUE ELF

*pauses from his Amsterdamming debauchery, hearkens to barely-heard words in the distance...

"Someone called me a cool dude? Well that is sweet as Tupelo Honey!"

*resumes debauch*

Yes, sauman was a rat all right . . .
Y'know, Gerbil, I have a friend who's nutty for rodents, you should meet her . . . then again, never mind. She'd probably give you a one way plane ticket to mars. Forget I mentioned her.
By the way . . . You DARE to insult Frodo???!!!! Heck w/ elijah wood, I'm convinced he's Frodo . . . wait, sorry, forgot to take my medication earlier, don't mind me . . .
