The Barrow-Downs' Third Birthday Party and Downie Awards

[GaladrieloftheOlden]

Menelien watched with apprehension as Gimli began to climb onto the table. Something was wrong here... When he got to the top, he stood high, his knees threatening to buckle beneath him, and began to recite:
One Axe to Rule Them All,
One Axe to Find Them,
One Axe to Bring Them All and in the Darkness Bind THem!
In the Land of Mordor,
Where the Shadows Lie.

At this point in the recitation, Menelien could have sworn that she heard
In the Land of Fordor,
Where I Bake Pie. (For readers of Bored of the Rings and Dude, Where's My Ring? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] )

Pehaps she was a bit tipsy herself, she thought, as Gimli slid to the ground. In fact, she was feeling so out of it that she merely glanced at him, said "Who the hell?", and ran off to join the conga chain. Mabe somebody not all that tipsy would ask her to dance... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
