..that the state of dentistry in Laketown is a disgrace. Something must be done!"
For still there are so many things
that I have never seen:
in every wood and every spring
there is a different green. . .

******************************************
Once Radagast dreamt he was a moth, a moth flitting and fluttering around, happy with himself and doing as he pleased. He didn't know he was Radagast. Suddenly he woke up and there he was, solid and unmistakably Radagast. But he didn't know if he was Radagast who had dreamt he was a moth, or a moth dreaming he was Radagast. Between Radagast and a moth there must be some distinction! But really, there isn't, because he's actually Aiwendil dreaming he's both Radagast *and* a moth!
-From Radagasti: The Moth Dream

Alfrid: And I think it is absolutely outrageous that Peter Jackson would add Tauriel to the films when she wasn't a character in the book!
Bard: ...
Alfrid: This sullying of Tolkien's treasured works-
Bard: Alfrid...
Alfrid: -the destruction of canon-
Bard: Alfrid-
Alfrid: -all in the name of political correctness, cannot be tolerated-!
Bard: Alfrid!
Alfrid: What?
Bard: You're not in the book, either.
Alfrid: ... so anyway, a little creative license never hurt anyone, and after all the films really are just an adaptation...

Bard and the Laketown survivors seriously doubt Alfrid can really catch an egg in his mouth!

Bombur, maybe, but Alfrid? Nah.

Now that Bard's archery is vindicated, Alfrid is reduced to belittling his manhood./

...though I agree with Alfrid's original point, I have to admit, that was a very clever bit of satire. Lead on!
...I award the silver medal to L.Ron Halfelven, for a post that I should not have viewed while eating lunch as I almost choked from laughing.
