The Thain was tired of springing Pippin out of the Lockholes for his drinking sprees, so he finally sent Diamond to pay the fine.

Seriously, though, they didn't settle down right away. They went on a long Honeymoon to Gondor, and on the way Pippin showed her all the places he'd had adventures. Even Moria.

Funny story. They each met at a support centre for people with crippling gambling addictions.

Why, Smeagol of course, by means of a dubious relationship between his Grandmother and Arathorn, while Arathorn was on an Eggs Sucking convention.

He took 'em off and was soaking his large, and smelly feet in the river, when Goldberry's ol' daddy popped up and yelled about him polluting his river-water. Well, Tom just rhymed back at him. Goldberry always did like rhyms. But her dad just yelled, "No more rhyming! I mean it! And get your stinking feet out of my water! This is inconceivable!!"

Raw fish puree, bones and all. It's quite good, if you like that sort of thing. I'm sure Gollum was just trying to get on his good side, in his own clumsy sort of way.

He dreamt . . . Nazgúl were racing for him, gaining on him! At last, they surrounded him! There was no where to turn! No one to save him! One turned and said, "Got a light?" Than he woke up . . .

How did Aragorn fight of the Nazgúl on Weathertop?

I'm sorry, that's just a silly question! He hated Galadriel, she was his mother-in-law after all. He secretly laughed at Celeborn and called him hen-pecked. "You could tell who wore the trousers in that relationship, eh, Elladan my boy!"

Of all the hobbits in the Shire, Bilbo had the shiftiest eyes, and the nicest teeth, and a disconcerting manner of smirking in an unsettling way. He was just the sort for the job.
