Arr, mateys! American scurvy dogs, have a rip-roaring Labor Day weekend--perhaps by joining Pippin and Captain Jack Sparrow in Vegas!
Huh?

Hey ho (or should I at this point say yo ho?), sorry to have bailed on you after your wedding, Aragorn, but I hooked up with your college pal Jack at the reception & he got to talking about how you and some boys in your frat house (was Denethor really a hippie? Did he really sing John Denver? I mean, Theoden I can understand; even in the 3rd age he was obsessed with "pipeweed" but, the steward?) did a spring break in Vegas and I said I had never been - well one thing led to another and BAMF! here I am in sin city (get your mind out of the gutter Meriadoc). Anyhoo, I wanted to go to "Treasure Island" but Jack said no as it was an assault upon his pride and that if there was a Shire-themed casino he wouldn't offend me by going in it but I said I didn't care where he would or wouldn't go, I wanted pirate booty!
Well, g2g. Jack wants to go see Celine Dion. I got him front row seats (I bet you're jealous, Gandalf). So catch you on the flip side.
Love! Pip (son of Palladin)
P.S. Elrond's stage show is doing fab - great suggestion with high kicks Legolas, the special tights really makes things, well, special.
P.P.S. Faramir, if you and Eowyn need a shotgun wedding, Jack and I have been in several lovely chapels. There's even one where THE KING will marry you - & I'm not talking about you, Aragorn!
P.P.P.S. Frodo! A 9 fingered hobbit could make a killing here! Pity you don't have the one ring anymore b/c Jack and I came up with this plan involving it, you, a rubber chicken, the carrot & a few casinos. We'd make a haul!
P.P.P.P.S. I thought it would work better with an apple, whatev.
P.P.P.P.P.S. Never mind. Jack says no go. Have rum instead. Will do!
