Oooh, good thread! I don't have much to offer, though, because I know nothing about Elfwine or Old English translations of the Red Book. I've never heard about this before. Is it in the "History of...

Credit cards.
Stupid computers that need to end up in the shop every couple months and cost as nearly as much as a new computer to fix.

I honestly don't know. I'd like to think the Brandybucks resisted, but if 'Sharkey' entered the Shire through Buckland, they wouln't have had much warning.

My death was not painful at all, just secret, since my parents don't like me to get involved in fantasy. :) On a similar note, I recently joined the Council of Elrond...
