BLAST! Doing ICQ for the first time with bmilder & shan and lost my work! First, to post, then to Edit...
================================================== =========


The little hobbit staggered up the last slope and rested, panting, his hand against a cool white marble column. He had reached the Gates of Nobility at last!

As he caught his breath, he thought back over his adventures on The Tolkien Trail (http://www.tolkientrail.com) through the ENTMOOT since he had arrived not long ago!

He had gotten input and encouragement to read THE HOBBIT at the local bookstore. He had learned to use his computer better so that he could audition his readings for the ENTMOOT crowd. He found many new friends! He wrote poems and roleplayed (great death scene) at ELVENHOME. He became HOBBIT HOOD, PERIAN OF THIEVES at BAG END. He started a Tolkien Fan Novel on his own message board with handy advice gleaned from the writings of an Elven Loremaster and from the knowledgable Bar Maid of THE PRANCING PONY. He began the portrayal of SARUMAN OF MANY COLOURS at the ENTMOOT RPG. :evil: He learned of ENCHANTING CAMELOT! And best of all, his readings and scribblings were featured entertainment in RIVENDELL on the TOLKIEN TRAIL!

He turned to set his hand on the golden Gate of Nobility. But with the tail of his eye he saw some colour down the Trail behind him. It was Eruve and juntel toiling up the slope.

He had hardly thought about it when he had passed first the one and then the other in a mad dash as fast as his furry little feet could carry him! But they had labored long from nigh on the first days and still continued faithfully on.

Would you believe that the sentimental old hobbit just couldn't go in by himself! Instead of passing the last post that would make him an Elven Lord, he sat right down with his back against a column, took a load off his bare feet, took out his pipe, and was soon watching the stars kindling in the sky above the setting sun. He blew a smokering that was lit by the golden glow of the sunset and he waited...

Congratulations, you have deserved it! :)

Now just wait with the congratulations. He's not an Elf Lord yet. This is his 500th post; the Elf Lord kicks in at 501! He's being nice and waiting for juntel and me... You don't really have to, you know, Gil. I know I make a big deal about the race for Elf Lord, but it's just a game. It's part of the fun. Congratulations on your 500th post!

Pfui! spat the little hobbit, from the cover of the trees. Gil might be nice enough now, but just wait until he accepts his Lordship! He'll be lording it over everyone like they were just peasants beneath his furry feet!

The legendary burglar was not impressed!

I knew you would be clever. ;)

Hobbit Hood

Not Gilthalion!

If he were clever he would strip the gold off those gates and carry as much off as he could before anyone else got there!

No, I meant Tater. ;)

Tater? That spud? That tuber? That underground growth? He's only fit to be mashed, or french fried or chipped, or julianned, or made a salad, or au grautinned, or made a soup, or as rare good ballast, or as food for blight, or for making vodka, or for spelling bees...

Well, he may actually be pretty clever after all!

Little did the little hobbit know that when he sat down to wait and to rest, it would be his death!

Banned from the surroundings he knew so well by the careless keystrokes of a fickle goddess, he haunted the area as a disembodied spectre, envying the living, and yet filled with an impotent fury!

Listen! You can hear his plaintive wail!


OOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

If it was an IP ban, I'd be outta here too.

<voice style="ethereal">"My banishment was only an accident! A slip of a finger poised over a key! But accidents can be fatal!"</voice>

woooooooooooooooooooooooo!

The little hobbit's nightmare continued. Tormented by the terrifying image of the giant Canadian, he turned and twisted in his sleep. Would no one ever arrive to awaken him? He dozed on fitfully, in the shadows of the Gates of Nobility. The blackness of the night deepened.

Bound by an oath as if by chains, the little hobbit could not pass. As he slept, waiting for Eruve, his spirit traveled the astral plain, uneasy and restless.

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

The kindly Lord of Rain could not rouse Gilthalion from the last plebian dreams of his peasantry.

It's almost as if I'll have to summon you to the Stone of Erech when the time comes...

Maybe it was that last peanut butter, sardine, cornchip, pickle, onion, horseradish, caviar and saurkraut sandwich.

...whatever it was, the little hobbit moaned in his sleep and his spirit continued haunting the land...

Gil, if you were female, I'd tell you to go take a pregnancy test just for coming up with that combination. :x

I had a friend once that craved CLAY! She would "harvest" it from the roadside and bake it into chips.....tell me that she didn't have a mineral deficiency! ;)

Some folks also eat PlayDough. "Eating Clay" is what it is called down here.

Woah, that was my 100th post. *sigh* I have no life! ;) :) Granted, most of you have more posts than I do, but you've all been on longer.

Oh, and all hail Gilthalion, the Elf Lord!

The little hobbit stirred fitfully in his restless sleep. The Lord of Rain stood by at the golden Gates of Nobility. Eruve had finally reached the summit.

And yet still, he slept on, dreaming most uncomfortable dreams about eating public school cafeteria food and other horrible, horrible things too detestable to mention!

They watched as his furry little feet twitched. They could not know that he was running from an over-sized, sweaty, Cafeteria Lady serving Mystery Meat! In his dream, Gilthalion looked over his shoulder and saw the greasy terror lumbering ever closer...
