“the Lampoon’s “Bored of the Rings”-it was one of the most wickedly funniest satires ever “
I’ll vouch for that. I had some of it memorized and I would torment my LOTR loving friends by reciting it. I was a heretic in their beady little eyes.
“Keep me covered,” said Legolam, “I’ll head them off”
“Guard the rear,” said Gimlet, “I’ll take the passage.”
“Hold the fort,” said Goodgulf, “I’ll circle around.”
“Stand fast,” said Bromosel, “I’ll draw them off”
“Pyongyang panmunjon,” shouted the narc chieftan.
The company stampeded across the hall and out a side passage with the narcs at their heels. As they rushed out, Goodgulf slammed shut the door in the narcs’ faces and hastily put a spell on it.
“Hawley Smoot,” he said, striking the door with his wand, and with a smokey ‘foof’ the door disappeared, leaving the Wizard face-to-face with the puzzled narcs. Goodgulf quickly produced a lengthy confession, signed it, and thrusting it into the chieftan’s hands, raced away up the passage to where the rest of the company stood at the far end of a narrow rope bridge which spanned the sharp chasm.
As Goodgulf stepped onto the bridge the passage echoed with an ominous ‘dribble, dribble’, and a great crowd of narcs burst forth. In their midst was a towering dark shadow too terrible to describe. In its hand it held a huge black globe and on its chest was written the cruel runes “Villanova.”
“Aiyee,” shouted Legolam. “A Ballhog!”
