Some centuries after the fall of Sauron. In Valinor, Celembrimbor (C) and Galadriel (G) converse:

C: Honey, you know, I've been reading one of those modern novels humans write in Hither Lands and we occassionaly get by Palantir transmissions...
G: So, dear, what bothers you?
C: There is a term applied to one of the heroes, I can't get what it may stand for. He acts strangely too... you know, visiting ladies by night, with a ladder! Funny, that. I looked it up in "Laws and Customs Among the Eldar", but could not find anything to match, you know...
G: Yes, dear, I'm listening?
C: And you are so wise, maybe you can explain things to me?
G: Of course, dear, don't be afraid to tell me, what troubles you?
C: Um, what is a 'lover'?
G: A 'lover'? Let me see, I seem to remember something... lover, lover, hm-mm... Ah, yes, I remember!

Galadriel runs swiftly to the wardrobe and jerks the door open.

G: Here, dear, this is the lover!

Indicating the small bearded skeleton crouched in the far corner of it...

Going back to the initial post, on page one:

Evening in Rivendell. Same company - Elrond, his council and Gandalf, some dozen people overall, by the hearth. Again, some coughs, muttering, swearing from the roof, some scrabbing in the chimney followed by some dozen of bright golden rings falling out.

Elrond: Surely, it's Frodo having his excercise again? Is it not a bit late? They set out tomorrow!
Gandalf: No, you forget it's Christmas. It's Santa Claus, he brought us presents according to our ultimate desire...

(Gandalf standing on bridge, Balrog coming)
Gandalf: I am a servent of the secret fire
Balrog: What secret fire.
Gandalf: Oops, gave it away, going to have to kill you now.


How many orcs does it take to change a light bulb?
12, one to threaten them with a Nazgul, one to screw it in, and ten to fight of Sauruman's Uruk-hai who have orders not to use it.

... Sam can gather 5 pounds of bilberries in an hour, whilst Rosie can gather 4 pounds. But if they go to the forest to gather bilberries together, it does not necessarily follow that they will gather 9 pounds in an hour’s time...

How many Nazgul does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Nine, one to screw it in and the rest to hunt down and destroy all lightbulbs...



How many orcs does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Not known, they started fighting about who would screw it in...



How many wizards does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

None, their staffs work just fine...



Ten Nazgul commandments:

Thou shalt not put "Roar if you think I'm Sexy' stickers on fell beasts...

Thou shalt not roar if thou seest a 'Roar if you think I'm sexy sticker'...

Thou shalt not call thy fell beast a 'ride' nor use the phrase 'If the fell beast be a rockin' don't come a knockin''

Thou shalt not laugh at orcs...

Thou shalt not push orcs into a river 'just for fun'...

Thou shalt not hit orcs 'to see what noise it makes'

Thou shalt not listen to 'Back in Black' before a battle...

Thou shalt not sell thy fell beast for a car because 'it's so much more pimp'...

Thou shalt not refer to orc seige towers as 'pimp wagons'...

Thou shalt not refer to Sauron as 'the big black pimp'
