| These are absolutely genius! :applause: (It's actually quite hard to applaud whilst guffawing, so be impressed...) Alo | |

| Funny. I mean really funny. You know,I think Thranduil should install a high-pitched beep on the answering machine to scare off Legolas' admirers... Seriously, I loved them all. The Saruman one- 'drying nails, leave a message after the groan...' no wait, I'll just rewrite the whole thing here. These are the few words to describe it: simple yet so funny. Cheers! | |

| This whole thing was brilliant, it appealed to my twisted sense of humour. I really can't think of anything else to say, but that was definitly the best of this genre/style pieces around. Author Reply: (doing my best bad Elvis impression) Thankyou! Thankyou verymuch! | |

| I so nearly didn't read this, the modern day/LOTR crossovers aren't my thing. But I'm so glad I did! Very funny. My favourite is Thranduil's - I agree with him, I don't call it Mirkwood either. Jay Author Reply: Glad you read it--modern day/LOTR crossovers are not exactly my thing either. For the most part I write strictly to canon, or as close as I can get. I only do AU when my funny bone itches, and then I can't seem to help myself. Thanks for reviewing! | |

| Hah! I adore this. Let the telemarketers try -- they'll never reach the Dark Tower again! :) Author Reply: Oooo, do you suppose we could arrange a direct line for telemarketers to Sauron, wherever he's gone? Seems a suitable link, on both sides. | |

| HAHAHAHAH - Laughing all the way - very funny this one - especially after seeing the third movie. Great Job - love every minute of it - going to put one of these on my phone - just have to work out which one. JULES Author Reply: Yes, Jules, I was waiting to post the final chapter until after the third movie came out. It seems a good way to end this bit of silliness! | |

| Oh dear. so simple. so sublime. You need to put the title of this chapter with the message because I was pretty much clueless until I went and checked the title of the chapter. But once it came clear. -- oh dear. so simple. so sublime. Lindorien Author Reply: Ah, simplicity. It is a nice change for me. Sometimes my sentences are so long and complicated that they confuse even myself. Thanks for reviewing! | |

| Where is the spring and the harvest and the tall corn growing? Ain't no Corn in Middle-Earth, Ms. Lindelea, Only TATERS! Lindorien -- on a rolla rillo Author Reply: Sorry, you must direct your comments to the Professor, it was his line, not mine! (Whew, dodged that one) Actually, in the King James Version of the Bible, the translators used "corn" to mean "grain", and that was in the 1600s sometime. JRRT's language sometimes reminds me of Shakespeare and KJV, though more often of Jane Austen for some reason. Guess "corn" came to mean "corn" or maize some time later. But then, you weren't looking for a serious answer at all, were you? *grin* | |

| Ho Linde, Lindelea, Lindelealillo I am Lindorien and me boots is yillo I have had Tom Bombadil until my head does swello So hie thee hence in recompense for review not written when first I was smitten by these messages silly I mean, Lindelea, rilly! You are making me rhyme I do it all the time Until it makes me nuts I better stop now. Suffice to say that at the end of the day These are FUNNY! Lindorien Author Reply: Ho, Lindorien! Lindorie-illo! End of the day: that's the time to seek your pillow! Still, you have left us word, and you did it rhyming. Who are Tom and Lin and Goldie to complain of timing? p.s. Thanks for the review, though there is no rhythm or rhyme to this last line. Bowing to your poetical prowess! | |

| *Laughing hysterically* Oh, THANK YOU! The year 2003 is now well and truly complete for me. Excuse me, I must go tend my liege. I think he is strangling the butler and this could well lead to a morale problem with the rest of the staff. Please note, we have a special voice mailbox for Legolas sightings.
