Unfortunately, the squirrel was telling such hilarious nut jokes that they were all totally distracted by a rotflmao-attack.

Fortunately, they were snapped out of it by hearing the stamp of orc feet heading in their direction.

Does that count as fortunate??? Good enough, I like handing out possible disasters

Unfortunately, the squirrels had stolen their weapons.

Fortunately, there was no place for the squirrels to hide with the weapons

Unfortunately, the orcs arrived before they could retrieve their weapons from the squirrels.

Unfortunately, the orcs overpowered them, took them all captive, relieved them of their weapons and headed off in the direction of Moria.

Fortunately, some of the squirrels turned out to be what had previously been thought to be a crazy legend, namely the fierce and deadly ninja squirrels, who quickly annihilated the Orcs (to be truthful, freeing the Fellowship was just – from an Orc point of view – “collateral damage”. Except that there were never any Orcs left after a ninja squirrel attack to hold any point of view. These squirrels very seriously did not like Orcs *shudder*)

Unfortunately, a single Orc escaped to tell the tale, and summon forces from Mordor.

Fortunately, several squirrels followed the Orc and were able to lay traps on the outskirts of Mordor for the marching army.

Unfortunately, the traps were squirrel-sized and the returning army didn't know they were there, other than for one orc who got his big toe caught in one.

Fortunately, when that orc got his big toe caught in the squirrel trap, he yelled so loudly that he threw his own forces into confusion, and also warned the Fellowship about the approach of the Orcs.

Unfortunately, the ninja squirrels made a disastrous sortie against the Orcs before the Fellowship could arrive, and lost all of their nuts.

Fortunately, the nuts attracted a squirrel variety thought to be extinct, commonly called “scrats”, whose ferocity when battling for nuts was so great that all who got between the “scrats” and nuts were swept aside like chaff – as the Orcs noticed to their utter confusion and fright.

Fortunately, the Orcs were so frightened by the scrats that they forgot about the Fellowship.

Fortunately, Gandalf discovered that he could keep the "scrats" at a distance using small fireworks generated by his staff.

Unfortunately Gandalf realised that he didn't have his staff and that he left it back in Rivendell.

Unfortunately, Elrond had forgotten to also bring what Gandalf needed to produce the small fireworks with his staff, so that Gandalf had to resort to using his staff in the (at least in The Shire) famous Golfimbul technique once invented by Bandobras “Bullroarer” Took, which was far more tiring.

Unfortunately, Gandalf’s Golfimbul technique was a bit rusty and erratic, so that some members of the Fellowship suffered lumps and bruises from it before the “scrats” fled.

Fortunately, everyone healed quickly, and they were soon on their way to Rivendell.

Unfortunately, Gandalf was upset that his Golfimbul technique had become so erratic, and insisted on taking practice swings every once in a while, which slowed down the Fellowship’s progress somewhat.

Fortunately, the hobbits had heard enough descriptions of the Golfimbul technique to teach Gandalf and avoid further injury to the Fellowship.

Unfortunately, there was a disagreement on fine points of the Golfimbul technique between the Took and the Brandybuck factions of the Fellowship, so that Gandalf lost his temper (as he was occasionally prone to do) and decided to go away and sulk until the cantankerous Hobbits managed to iron out their differences of opinion.

Fortunately, a troop of Orcs came along, and took everyone's mind off the Golfimbul technique.

Unfortunately Gandalf, being provided with objects very appropriate to the Golfimbul technique, immediately decided to practice it, leaving all within range (i.e. not just the Orcs) less that amused at this renewed outburst of his.

Fortunately, the Orcs were so impressed by his demonstration, the took up the Golfimbul technique, much to everyone's surprise.

Unfortunately (if perhaps understandably), the Orcs did not realize that the target of the Golfimbul technique, strictly speaking, is an Orc head, so once again the non-Orcs were not (actually, even less) amused by this technique becoming popular.

Unfortunately, this meant that the first Middle-earth golf (-imbul) tournament was broken off before any clear decision was reached, meaning it wasn't until at least two or three ages later (and the introduction of a lot of nitpicky rules in the interim) that such a tournament was finally bought to a proper conclusion.

Fortunately, the original participants were long gone by then, as they had moved on to new adventures, according to Bilbo Baggins.

Unfortunately, this meant that all of Sauron's enemies had forgotten a very effective way to decimate his Orc hordes.
