Wow, where do I begin? First, I would walk right up to him and give him a BIG SQUISHY HUG! Haha, I've always wanted to do that! He was an adorable little hobbit. Next, I would plonk him down in front of me and have a long, long conversation about his life and what inspired him (I already know all about it, but I want to hear him say it
). THEN I'd throw a huge party to celebrate his existence...and every Tolkien fan would be invited ^_^ Next, I would show him all these sites and books and songs that were dedicated to him just to let him know how special we think he is
Oh, and I hope when he sees the movies, he will ignore all the short-cuts and simplifications and see the effort and meaning that went into the award-winners.
