And so my eyes were not clever enough. Ever get the feeling that you wasted a couple of hours looking for a quotation?

It beats work, I suppose...

Onwards Nilp, Rune hasn't been seen for a while. I hope he was not captured by Orcs on his adventures.

Well, a few minutes, I think. Blame the search forums function.

Lhuna, how much are we allowed to use the search function? That seems a bit too much like cheating.

If no-one has the answer after a good few days then I think it's permissable to do a search to keep the thread alive. Although that doesn't always work (see above).

Best to start by asking a clue.

Lhuna! Give us a clue!

Using the Search function is legal, people.

A clue? If you know this person's real life occupation you won't be amazed that he/she uttered these words at all. That's not much help, is it?

Eomer, is it legit to offer one's own siggie?

Of course, I could be wrong and that wasn't yours. I remember seeing it and it does so sound like something you would use but am not 100% sure, so regard this more as a technical question, just so I can save face if I'm wrong.

Hmm, reading threads and signatures does pay off...

Anyways, I've looked at this one for awhile, and it never stops to make me smile. Whom does this lovely treasure belong to?

I saw a werewolf drinking a Piña Colada at Trader Vic's. And his hair was perfect.

Thank you kindly. I think you'll know where to search for this quotation.

"I seem to recall a reference in the Book of Extra-Lost Tales that there was an alliance between the Wargs and the Gondolindrim....the reason Gondolin fell was that the Wargs were delayed from coming to their assistance as they were guarding Elwing and Silmaril's journey to the sea. Earendil always held this against them, although it was entirely an accident, the fault of the forces of Morgoth, and it may explain Elrond's antipathy towards the Wargs...."

And please remember: don't neglect the old threads.
