Let's see how many Tolkien or Middle Earth puns we can come up with to keep ourselves laughing! Here's one to get us started. Care of our own Underhill... Elrond Hubbard. <groan> <img src=wink.gif ALT=";)"> -réd <blockquote><font size=2> "He was as noble and as fair in face as an elf-lord, as strong as a warrior, as wise as a wizard, as venerable as a king of dwarves, and as kind as summer."</p> -A Short Rest, The Hobbit</p></blockquote></p> |

I'm not an English professor, but the last two were not puns. pun is defined as: A play on words which have the same sound but different meanings; an expression in which two different applications of a word present an odd or ludicrous idea; a kind of quibble or equivalent. Shockingling low-class example: Fingolfin's favorite Beatle was Ringil Star.
