I think bilbo would be storyteller, I don't find the rest doing something in this world.......Saruman could be great saleman.
if someone said it sorry I didn't read all the replays.

These are hilarious! I think one of my classmates in middle school started writing a story based off of lord of the rings that actually did have microsoft as the villans and the One Computer Chip. Anyway, here's my two cents.

Arwen-Famous clothing designer
Aragorn-Actor who stars in a lot of action movies featuring secret agents.

Galadriel-U.S president
Celeborn-U.S vice president (They'd be better than the current ones )

Elrond- Headmaster at a very prestigious collage

Legolas- Counselor at a summer camp

Beren-A certain famous writer we all know and love
Luthien-A certain famous writer's wife

Earendil- Shackleton, you know that guy who made it to the south pole and back... I think I got the name right.

That's all I can think of right now.

Hey, that's good, Earendil would be Shackleton!

sorry if I repeat any. . .I know I am, oh well. . .
Arwen: clothing designer
Aragorn: British Prime minister and former Army general
Ents: environmental activists--not environmental terrorists
Legolas: environmental activist and mountain (or river) guide
Gandalf: college professor
Elrond: owner of a very fancy hotel
Sam: gardener and cook

Doesn't quite fit his character, I'm afraid. He's too much of an out-doorsey type

I'm seeing Legolas as an X-gamer climbing walls. The weird thing is, everytime he slip, he yells Ai! Ai!

Wall climbing is an X-treme sport? Seems a bit tame.. compared to rock climbing (Unless you mean the same thing)

Well, he'd probably be yelling Ai! Ai! cause of that wretched harness.

Rock climbing is really fun, I can definitely see Legolas doing that. And river rafting, and ice climbing and. . .birdwatching!

Gandalf

I think Bilbo should be the presenter of a kids' TV show, he'd do great, reading stories etc.

Galadriel could be a psychiatrist. Her ability to see into people's minds would be an asset.

Sam could present a gardening show on TV.

Saruman would be the kind of genetic scientist who gets labelled "mad" by the media and attracts headlines such as "It shouldn't be allowed".

Gandalf could be a priest.

Ëowyn could be an instructor of ladies' self defence classes.

Arwen could be a model.

I used to watch perfect strangers. Maybe Gandalf and Saruman could do that too.
Betcha all the fan girls wish that was Legolas' job.
