LOL! Very cute. For some reason, it puts me in mind of Marty Robbin's "Big Iron", even though that isn't exactly the image you present. Smile smiley face

Love the neck cracking - it's the perfect touch to show waaaaay too many hours in the saddle.

Excellent!!!!! Loved this!!! You've turned me into a fangirl!! oh, help!

THis was great. I didn't know at first who the Man-with-no-name would turn out to be or what part of the story you were telling and when it all became clear I laughed and laughed! Great! You wrote this so clearly and simply with no hint of drabble-cramming whatsoever. You really caught the spirit of the genre and chose a great moment in LOTR to take it to.

Good work. Have to say I'm not that keen on Westerns (having grown up with a 'Bonanza'-obsessed mother) but this was funny. Took me a minute to figure who the guy was, but when I did, it all made sense and I found it even funnier.

Kudos,

Drabble a la spaghetti western!! This was SO great, Rous! Now, I'm gonna have a hard time watching LotR without crossing the two... OMG!! You rock smiley face

Writing ‘The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings’ books; Many many years of hard work.

Buying the books; Uncounted dollars for many years of enjoyment.

P Jackson making the trilogy; Many millions of dollars and many years of hard work.

Getting big laughs out of having it crossed with a spaghetti western; PRICELESS.

LOL, this is great! For some strange reason I can't help having an image of Clint Eastwood in my mind. Any idea why...? Very Happy smiley face

Thank you for sharing.

Ooo LOTR Western style! And with 100 words you gave me that image of a dusty scene from a spaghetti western. Now cue the music... a perfect portrayal!

Now am imagining Elrond's Posse (tm). Smile smiley face

Great interpretation for the challenge!

I heard the theme from the good the bad and the ugly as I read, now I can't get the damn whistling outta my head. This was everything I expected when I saw what you had signed up for, and more.
