Who or what can't you currently tell a Hobbit from ? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Well, one of my friends is a hobbit. Looks like one (all with the curly hair, well, perhaps he could have a little more on feet and also cannot walk much quietly, but otherwise it all fits pretty well), oh, and he is not only my friend, he is a distant cousin of mine. He is first son of the second daughter of my grandmother's sister, you see. I might add that their line is the most... hobbitish in our family.

Well, before I got messed up (long story) I was pudgy, curvy, curly haired, smiley hobbit lass myself...60 lbs and a buzz cut later, not so much.

Has anyone ever met Douglas A. Anderson, the auther of "The Annotated Hobbit"? 'Nuff said.

There's an old man I used to see regularly on the bus. He was short, with a mass of curly hair. He also had a very grumpy looking face, leading me to believe he was an evil hobbit. I called him Bilbao.
