A - They were plotting an uprising and needed disposable troops. Incidentally, they got the idea from Sauron, always breeding hundreds of Orcs who, because they die rather quickly, needed to be in ridiculously high numbers. Unfortunately, for Sam, his plans never reached their full and he eventually gave up because he ran out of names. You don't know about the nine other children he had who were called, "Hobbit lad 14", "Hobbit lass 25", "Hobbit Lad 16", "Hobbit lass 34" and so on.

Q - What was Saruman's reaction to the Ent attack?

Why are hobbits good at throwing parties?

The Might · 01-02-2007, 10:58 AM

Because they have enough food, drinks and pipeweed for everyone

Would Tom Bombadil ever fall in love with the Barrow-wight ?

They've had lots of practice, since they have a birthday party for the day of the week, rather than the year. This also explains their "long lifespans".)

Actually, he was already in love with her. The lady who had worn the jewel he took from the barrow became the Barrow Wight.

Why did it take Sauron so long to get the Nine new "horses"?

Because the Rohirrim weren't making any discounts until 3019 and he didn't want to pay more.

Why doesn't Saruman ever get a girlfriend ?
