Question Thanks!

Any of you watch the moviefication of The Hunt for Red October? Well, in that version, CIA officer Jack Ryan came aboard Dallas.

Of course, as usual, the book is still better.

Thanks. And be careful not to hit anything with those. Well, maybe some orcses.

All this time, we've been living in a long lie.

Question Thanks!

Do you know the story of the Dwarves of the First Age. Well, there were the Petty-Dwarves, the Dwarves of Nogrod and Belegost, and the famous Khazad-dûm of Durin. But have you heard of the dwelling of the Dwarves in the White mountains long ago in the First Age? It was called

The Lair of Nóin.

Then again, I got this from a Dwarf who had too much to drink.

I know we had a "son of"-thingy before, so why not.

Dark-Eye Another clue?

Hmmm . . . the "ó" really is included in the shuffle.

Oh, and

No really, that was a hint! A profound hint, I might say.

A new puzzle? Hmmm . . . I'm currently away from school (and hence, civilisation) until the 9th of November. Sooo . . . anyone else have a scribble-shuffling sphinx? Maybe that person can have a go.

Following on then, so it's an 'N' we're after

The precocious child of words turns to his reprimanding parent, and declares of the room-tidying suggestion:

Nah, let mess sing!

Ahem! Sorry for the delay.

Before Sam set out on the Quest, Rosie instructed him to be sure to pick up something green and figure-hugging at ...

... those neat elf shops.

Well done Rimbaud. I thought that one might be rather tricksy, but you have the measure of it. Please proceed ...

Question Taking it . . .

I saw this most funny spectacle yesterday: An oliphaunt tramping while crying:

Ai! Alatar can't ran!

The funny part being the oliphaunt speaking.

That's just stupid.
