Close enough.

Gollum's answer was "eggses."

But Radagast, were they "brown" eggses? (*hears groans*)

Sorry,

Your turn Radagast.

Agburanar · 01-14-2003, 06:01 AM

Eggsess!

Ainaethir · 01-16-2003, 09:12 PM

my question is.....how many times does the word (a) appeer in the book?????????????????
lololololololololol :}
hahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahhaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Agburanar · 01-17-2003, 06:11 AM

1456. Are you going to prove me wrong?

Elf Girl · 01-17-2003, 06:38 PM

No, no! It was 1,457! Fool!

Agburanar · 01-20-2003, 06:39 AM

Really? Hey ho. I seem to recall that I'm owed a question, and as this isn't getting anywhere I'll ask one now... (if that's okay with everyone)

How long did it take Bilbo to run to the Green Dragon?

Melkor's significant othe · 01-20-2003, 09:36 AM

10 minutes????? (GUESS)

Agburanar · 01-21-2003, 06:05 AM

Think about what time he left Bag End, and remember that he arrived on the stroke of eleven.

Lizra · 01-22-2003, 02:02 PM

15 minutes

barrelrider110 · 01-22-2003, 02:22 PM

Gandalf arrived at half-past-ten, and shooed Bilbo out the door shortly after. Bilbo arrived at the Green Dragon at the stroke of 11. Although Gandalf said "you only have 10 minutes", I would say it took Bilbo about 30 minutes. The Green Dragon is in Bywater, and Bywater's probably a mile or two from Hobbiton, and Bag End is a little farther, so that seems about right that it took Bilbo about 30 minutes at a trot.

Lizra · 01-22-2003, 04:30 PM

But doesn't Bilbo tell Thorin, "I didn't get your note until after 10:45 to be precise." Of course, the events at Bag End with Gandalf happen as you report Barrelrider, I suppose "the burglar" could be stretching the truth, when talking to Thorin....So, what say? Agburanar?

Agburanar · 01-23-2003, 06:04 AM

I wasn't expecting it to be that complicated! Although I agree that the Green Dragon is a long way to run I would take the references to time as the correct answer, so 15 minutes.

Your turn Lizra.

barrelrider110 · 01-23-2003, 09:23 AM

Maybe he could move those stout little hobbit legs faster than we thought. "Wingfoot I name you! Or maybe, Trotter.".

OK Liz, I'm done digressing. Give us a good one!

Lizra · 01-23-2003, 09:31 AM

Very well, this should be an "easy one"! Who was it that insisted on having the Gollum story, riddles and all, told all over again, with the ring in it's proper place? When did this happen?

Dunadan · 01-23-2003, 09:52 AM

Balin, back at Bag End when it was all over

Lizra · 01-23-2003, 12:09 PM

Yes it was Balin,(so you are right with the basic question Dunaden, and should ask the next one

) but the query did not occur at Bag End at the end of the story, some other time......

Christiana · 01-23-2003, 10:28 PM

When he rescued the dwarves fr the spiders.

Lizra · 01-23-2003, 10:57 PM

Yes, that's when he had to "fess up". Old Balin was quite curious!

Christiana · 01-24-2003, 01:09 AM

hmmmmmm..........
What did Thorin do when he said"we are not so bad off now"?
