someone think up a character we haven't bashed much, quick!

Ummm....Elrond, Glorfindel, Celeborn, Galadriel, Legolas, ...I already bashed Gildor, Arwen, and Haldir "The Snoot."

No Elrond bashing! Hey, all those names are ELVES!! I'm gonna bash someone shorter than I am, thank you... Thorin! Sure, he died in The Hobbit, but man! There's a stuck-up dwarf if there ever was one! I mean, everything from refusing to help with the dishes, to that whole thing over the Arkenstone, not to mention calling Bilbo a rat! Stupid guy managed to get every major force of fighters in the area after him, and then calls in his cousins so they can get slaughtered too! Then he dies, avoiding having to clean up after that mess - hmmph! He's skated for far too long. Let's have open season on Thorin Oakenshield.

I feel much better now. Let's take another look at that blasted flaming rotten code. Could my compiler be any less helpful? Someone needs to make a compiler that tells you that the reason why you have thirteen errors is because you left off a '}' somewhere.

Overtaxed! You go! Someone needs to defend poor little Smeagol. (By the way, I was just teasing... I came out as Samwise)

Calling all Dwarves!

Just like an Elf...an immortal snooty Elf to speak ill of the dead. At least he didn't swear some stupid oath and attack his own people destroying their kingdom and killing a rightful king and his heir in the process.

You came out as a "nast, cruel, rude" hobbit who treated Smeagol so badly? LOL!

Oh, no, being all nasty to Bilbo and refusing to talk to the nice Wood-Elves who rescued him and his starving friends, then starting a war over a diamond and refusing to listen to reason, that's much better! (Besides, we've already beaten up on Feanor and sons.) And thank you for comparing me to an Elf. See, that test was flawed. :-)

LOL! It wasn't meant as a compliment. I recall that the Dwarves didn't find the "hospitality" of the Elves to their liking.

Never trust an Elf!

Yeah, well, compared to the 'fabled hospitality of the Dwarves' that the Fellowship... enjoyed... I'd say the Elf-kingdom was downright nice!

Another message from 2JM:
Hey!

Yep, it's a pitiful thing. I don't know when I'm going to get the PC, depends on what my mom can do with the mac. I didn't want to buy the pc now because we could have paid cash for it next month. Oh well...

Thanks for posting my email on the thread! I've been following the personality discussion all day! I am "Merry" and pretty happy with that.

I've also taken the time to mow the yard with the lawnmower my husband so thoughtfully bought me for my birthday last year!! LOL It's a push mower (not self propelled) and so I've had a real workout today!

Anyway, I see everyone saying hello and that's nice. I'll be back soon. Probably this weekend.

As for me, I am super busy - probably not be in much the rest of the day - tootles!

Ah, I think a visual aid might be helpful here:

Hi! We miss you!

I think you and I fared the best on that personality test--we are the only ones entirely satisfied with our results, LOL.

I sure hope we can have you back soon! Are you able to access Yahoogroups at all? If you are set up with email delivery of the messages from our group, then we could actually all exchange messages with you there, couldn't we?

But when they show up at Lothlorien, looks who's home - the Elves! And our friends get to relax and get presents. Not once are they forced to flee Orcs or big nasty demons. Obviously Elves are better at keeping their homes free of pests.

We should release a few dragons in Lothlorien and find out!

Ha! Dragons are no match for Elves.... remember who killed Smaug? Bard the Bowman! And Elves are really, really good at what? Shooting arrows! I give the dragons five minutes before they're dragon steak. Which sounds really good. Wonder if 2JM has a recipe!
