**Party Time** A Hobbit Mad Lib
|
Can't Post
|
|
For a Mad Lib, a section of text has certain words removed, and replaced with the same kinds of words, provided by the players - who have no idea what word it is that they're replacing!
I've taken a short but important section from The Hobbit, and removed certain words, which will be replaced by - you! Below are numbers corresponding to certain words in the text, and what kind (noun, verb, etc.) of words they are. Your task is to provide new words in their place - to create a "revised" text! 
To play: select a word to replace, for example 7. Color, and if you'd like to replace that word with "Chartreuse", then in the Subject Line of your response write "7. Chartreuse". Don't select a number that someone else has already posted! (And if you can guess the text, don't give it away!) When all words have been replaced, I'll post the revised text. Ready? Here goes:
1. Name of a fellow TORn member
2. Adjective
3. Noun
4. Person with a particular occupation
5. Noun
6. Compass direction
7. Color
8. Plural noun
9. Verb ending in -ing
10. Noun
11. A noise
12. Animal
13. Color
14. Animal
15. Rock formation
16. Verb ending in -ing
17. Plural noun
18. Name of a fellow TORn member
19. Plural noun
20. Noun
21. Verb, past tense
22. Noun
23. Body part
24. Noun
25. A vocalization
26. A noise
27. Noun
28. Number
29. Noun
30. Name of a fellow TORn member
31. Noun
32. Noun
33. Noun
34. Number
35. Number
36. Direction

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."
"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

******************************************
Queen Beruthiel, Queen Beruthiel, there's no one like Queen Beruthiel,
She's broken every Gondor law, she breaks the law of Earendil.
Her powers of feline-ation would make Aiwendil stare,
And when you reach the scene of crime - Queen Beruthiel's not there!
You may seek her in the Hallows, you may search throughout the square –
But I tell you once and once again, Queen Beruthiel's not there!
- Old Tollers' Book of Fat Cats on the Mat

‘. . . the rule of no realm is mine . . .
But all worthy things that are in peril . . . those are my care.
For I also am a steward. Did you not know?'
