Yehaw! Am I correct in believing that I have found a person that shares my love for the smallest, yet greatest race in all of Middle Earth?
In other words: do love Dwarves like I do?

Just thought that this might be of interest to all of those Elf fans who think that Dwarves are no match for the Noldor.
