Found it and no wonder no one could find it....most hidden of answers. Lotesse has joined the elite in questioners!!!!

Please, Lotesse, post another one for us all who are humbled by your excellence.

O.K., thanx Spock!

How about this:

What are "Only shapes to see, perhaps, not to touch?"

Telcontar_Dunedain · 02-07-2006, 05:49 PM

The 'bodies' in the Dead Marshes.

Lotesse · 02-07-2006, 05:50 PM

Damn! That was super-fast. Yes indeed, that's what Gollum was referring to. It's all yours, TD.

Telcontar_Dunedain · 02-07-2006, 05:53 PM

According to Gandalf what does Pippin remain?

Spock · 02-07-2006, 05:55 PM

short

Telcontar_Dunedain · 02-07-2006, 06:03 PM

Probably, but not the required answer.

Lotesse · 02-07-2006, 11:58 PM

An honest fool?

Telcontar_Dunedain · 02-08-2006, 01:12 PM

Indeed, your go Lotesse.

Lotesse · 02-08-2006, 03:09 PM

How long was the elven rope that Sam Gamgee had used in the Emyn Muil?

Spock · 02-08-2006, 03:19 PM

Just long enough

Telcontar_Dunedain · 02-08-2006, 03:34 PM

Thirty ells or eighteen fathom.

Lotesse · 02-08-2006, 03:51 PM

That's right, TD. It's all yours!

Telcontar_Dunedain · 02-08-2006, 03:53 PM

What banished the Ring from Frodo's mind?

Lotesse · 02-08-2006, 03:55 PM

He got distracted by a sexy young hobbit-lass whom he spied taking a shower... it took his mind off The Ring.

Telcontar_Dunedain · 02-08-2006, 03:56 PM

Not quite.

Last Child of Ungoliant · 02-08-2006, 07:46 PM

he smoked a lot of pipe-wed and got distracted by a shiny thing on the floor
