Another thing: Today a van passed me on the street, and it said "Elwing & co" on the side!

I don't know, but around where I live there are about six "Greenleaf Cafe"s.

Trend?

Tolkien

My mom once saw a van belonging to a company that repairs fax machines named Shadowfax. My sister and I have also seen advertising for Bag End Sound Productions, and have heard of a housing Co-op called LothLorien.

*The* fast-food place to go in Rohan is the Hornburger. I've heard they also have franchises in Minas Tirith and Bywater now.

White-Hand

Here's some more I've thought of:
"Gimli's" instead of "Lowe's". There you can find pracitcal home and cave improvement products. They also have high quality battle axes, and dwarf armor. Gimli's also has the rare Mithril by the brick.

Back to "Old Sharky." I think they would most likely sell staffs and white robes. Probably printed with the logo of the White Hand and the name Old Sharky printed on the sleeve.

a couple of groaners

Well, they got the animal wrong (it was sheep, not cows), but I'm quite certain that DAIRY QUEEN is a pathetic attempt to capitalize on the fame and popularity of Tar-Ancalime herself!

And I'd be very surprised if Cirdan didn't do all his shopping from the Lands' End catalog.
