Well this was supposed to have been Meneldor's turn; however, he seems to have been absent from the forums for a bit and I've been asked by Loresilme to step in as a substitute. Here is hoping that all is well and our M.I.A. poster will soon return! In the meantime, what might Gandalf and Radagast be discussing below?

Really very sorry about this Radagast old bean. It was entirely my fault, denting your sledge like that, but can we keep the insurance drones out of this please?

No, it's not a "dark and powerful magic", Gandalf! Just change your batteries!

"Don't be alarmed Radagast. It's simply the new computerized analytical system. Red means your staff is warped. Orange means it has termites. Green means it has a staff infection. Aqua blue means yours is knotty and that's not good with Christmas right around the corner."

...I hear you tied a team of bunnies up to a sled, resurrected a hedgehog...and...well, have you noticed you are covered in bird droppings?" All the while Radagast thinks: 'Gandalf's hat looks like a giant mushroom...I should like to eat a mushroom like that...I wonder if he would mind if I took a nibble'

The battlement's black and immeasurably strong, an adamant mountain of iron, A buttress of steel, impossibly tall, held aloft by the power of Sauron!

This video makes me think you were right about Tom Cruise and "The Hobbit".

Tom Cruise Discusses Video Interpolation. I thought that The Hobbit films suffered from the soap opera effect in their 3D theatre incarnations--maybe Cruise would have talked Jackson out of that!

It was a close call between SF's imagined conversation and Loresilme's quip, but a decision had to be made. Go forth, StingingFly and post a new image!
