In article <368...@compuserve.com>, Steve Nash <Ste...@compuserve.com> writes >Describe what a hobbit looks like and maybe a kind artist here will draw >you one. "What is a hobbit? I suppose hobbits need some description nowadays, since they have become rare and shy of the Big People, as they call us. They are (or were) a little people, about half out height, and smaller than the bearded dwarves. Hobbits have no beards... They are inclined to be fat in the stomach; they dress in bright colours (chiefly green and yellow); wear no shoes, because their feet grow natural leathery soles and thick warm brown hair like the stuff on their heads (which is curly); have long clever brown fingers, good-natured faces, and laugh deep fruity laughs..." Straight from the book. Probably copyrighted, but please don't sue me... An ASCII-art picture of Bilbo Baggins wearing the magic ring: And I drew it all by myself! :) And next to it there's Gollum wearing the ring, and beside that there's Frodo with the ring on... -- Philip Taylor philip @ zaynar . demon . co . uk http://www.zaynar.demon.co.uk/atr - Programming robots!
