I might have cheated too and I'm not condemning Bilbo's actions in that particular situation. What he did was perfectly understandable...BUT (here comes the big but) -he cheated, didn't he?
i don't have anything against Bilbo, I have a grudge against the Master (read Tolkien) himself because of what he did to Bilbo in LOTR. He went from an adventurous, active hobbit to an ancient, dull (as in dull senses) who couldn't even stay awake. I know it had to be that way but I wish Bilbo had retained some of his previous traits.

Not all those who wander are lost.</p>
