How to spot a Hobbit

This is your typical Hobbit. This one seems to be stealthily seated in the lazy boy, people around don't even notice. This particular Hobbit's name is Benjamin Clonchkin son of Gaffer Clonchkin.

Hobbits are simple folk. Small people with hairy feet, they are not cut out for adventure and prefer to laze about and eat (and smoke and drink in Benjamins case).

Hobbit's live in holes (suncrest is basically a hole). No going upstairs for the hobbit: bedrooms, bathrooms, cellars, pantries (lots of these), wardrobes (he had whole rooms devoted to clothes), kitchens, dining-rooms, all were on the same floor, and indeed on the same passage.

Humans will scarcely catch a glipse of a hobbit. They can hear humans from a mile away, and scurry off into some hole. To you and me, their footsteps would be like that of a mouse or rabbit, or something of the sort.

They are curious creatures.

Very curious indeed.

It is said that Bosses are naturally immortal, and remain unwearied by age. Bosses can recover from wounds that would kill mortal men but can die of grief or weiriness.

I'll probably live here someday

Casting for a post WR movie (Scourge of the Shire, etc.)

So when i was in Scotland this year I found his guy in Edinburgh. I though he would do great for the part when the Gandalf, Galadriel, and the rest of the returning crew find Saruman and Wormtounge on the streets, living as beggars. All this guy needs to do is work on his beard a little bit and he'd do just fine.

But really, why wasn't the Scourge of the Shire in the LotRs movies? I'm told that they were originally planning on making them, but for some reason terminated their creation. I think that this is one of the best parts in the books. That is my one big critisizm for the movies. Well, i was also kind of pissed that Saruman got killed off so early. But if the Scourge happened, i suppose he would have to be alive.
