Happy Birthday to Bilbo and Frodo

[vwlover77]

For Lord of the Rings fans, or anyone who is looking for a reason to toast with a pint of their favorite ale, today (September 22) is the birthday of both Bilbo Baggins and Frodo Baggins.

Cheers!

I have a copy of the unlicensed LOTR board game "Quest of the Magic Ring" still in the wrapper from 1976. Anybody here a LOTR junkie and wanna trade for bus parts?

My wife is such a LOTR nut she celebrates this birthday every year. Normally she requires we take our summer vacation during this week and for the last couple of years, we have, but this year her co-workers had that week so we went on vacation last week. So, tonight instead we are doing a Japanese Dinner with Sushi and a movie in celebration and I am sure she will want to do something tomorrow. She collects so much LOTR stuff and I collect so much VW stuff, we are probably both considered nutty by the family.

I read LOTR every few years. I love it! Your game sounds like a nice find DJ. I still have my copy of Bored of the Rings. It's too funny. For your enjoyment, the introduction:


"Do you like what you doth see...?" said the voluptuous elf maiden as she provocatively parted the folds of her robe to reveal the rounded, shadowy glories within. Frito's throat was dry, though his head reeled with desire and ale.

She slipped off the flimsy garment and strode toward the fascinated boggie unashamed of her nakedness. She ran a perfect hand along his hairy toes, and he helplessly watched them curl with the fierce insistent wanting of her.

"Let me make you more comfortable," she whispered hoarsely, fiddling with the clasps of his jerkin, loosening his sword belt with a laugh. "Touch me, oh touch me", she crooned.

Frito's hand, as though of its own will, reached out and traced the delicate swelling of her elf-breast, while the other slowly crept around her tiny, flawless waist, crushing her to his barrel chest.

"Toes, I love hairy toes," she moaned, forcing him down on the silvered carpet. Her tiny pink toes caressed the luxuriant fur of his instep while Frito's nose sought out the warmth of her precious elf-navel.

"But I'm so small and hairy, and... and you're so beautiful," Frito whimpered, slipping clumsily out of his crossed garters.

The elf-maiden said nothing, but only sighed deep in her throat and held him more firmly to her faunlike body. "There is one thing you must do for me first," she whispered into one tufted ear.

"Anything," sobbed Frito, growing frantic with his need. "Anything!"

She closed her eyes and then opened them to the ceiling. "The Ring,: she said. "I must have your Ring."

Frito's whole body tensed. "Oh no," he cried, "not that! Anything but... that."

"I must have it," she said both tenderly and fiercely. "I must have the Ring!"

Frito's eyes blurred with tears and confusion. "I can't," he said. "I mustn't!"

But he knew resolve was no longer strong in him. Slowly the elf-maiden's hand inched towards the chain in his vest pocket, closer and closer it came to the Ring Frito had guarded so faithfully...
