I'm a hobbit, most days.

But here's a story: I usually dress very casually for church (torn jeans? plus hobbit-shirt & jacket) , and that was OK with my pastor until I started leading worship. Then he bugged me to tidy up a bit. So I wore my very best elven-dress to Sunday morning service.

I was up at the microphone just before the service when he said: "You look nice."

I said: "I'm an elf."

Dead silence. So I started the service.
