I'm not in a rush, hoom.

What? In riddles? No! For I was talking aloud to myself.
A habit of the old: they choose the wisest person present to speak to;
the long explanations needed by the young are wearying.

~Gandalf

All correct DPR - your turn!

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 04-29-2009, 11:08 AM

It may be awhile. I'm moving this week. If someone wants to take the turn, that's cool with me. Otherwise, it will probably be Thursday morning before I can post a quote, and then I might not be able to keep up with the guesses...

But I'll try.

"And to /_o_d_r/ they’re /_u_e_/, if they live on the wrong side of the Brandywine River, and right agin(?) the Old Forest.
That’s a dark bad place, if half the tales be true."

***Varnafindë*** · 05-02-2009, 03:12 AM

Changing my own suggestion here, as I suddenly realised what it should be:
And no /wonder/ they’re /queer/

Should it be "right amid" ?

Now, who said that

***Valandil*** · 05-02-2009, 07:55 AM

Good work, Varnafinde! With the 'to', I kept thinking the next word was 'Gondor' or 'Mordor' - but that didn't make sense.

Was it Ted Sandyman who said this?

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 05-04-2009, 07:59 PM

It is "no wonder" and it is "agin" and it isn't Ted Sandyman.

Good work so far. Now for the obscure speaker...

***Valandil*** · 05-05-2009, 07:48 AM

Oh - an obscure one? What was the one guy's name: Daddy Twofoot, or something like that?

The Dread Pirate Roberts · 05-05-2009, 11:05 AM

You got it!

***Valandil*** · 05-05-2009, 10:55 PM

Really? OK...

When I got on last night, I was thinking of the Gaffer - but you mentioned that he was obscure. I was trying to think of the other hobbit there (or one of, if more than one). The first thing that came to mind was 'Daddy Twotoes' - but that didn't sound quite right, so I went on to bed. This morning, I thought of the other last name.

I'll try to post tomorrow. I'm up tonight studying for an important test I take tomorrow.

***Valandil*** · 05-09-2009, 12:59 PM

Whew - full days!

***Varnafindë*** · 05-09-2009, 09:02 PM

/Sauron/should/return/

***Valandil*** · 05-10-2009, 08:22 AM

Words are all correct.

Speaker?

Curufin · 05-11-2009, 10:51 PM

Elrond?

***Valandil*** · 05-12-2009, 07:29 AM

Elrond is correct - your turn!
