Because the goat didn't try to eat him, and he didn't have to share his food. The pig hardly ate anything, and was picky.

Why did Saruman have giant, spiked wheels?

He has giant, spiked wheels ..... interesting.

Perhaps he's just partial to spiky things, or perhaps he needs the traction now that he's rid himself of all the grass and left the area a muddy mess.

Why did Boromir really want to take the Ring from Frodo?

When he lost his horse in Tharbad on his way to Rivendell, he also lost all of his jewelry that he had foolishly taken with him in a saddle-pack. So he was just desperate to get any piece of jewelry in a way that he thought would be easy.

Why did Sam really decide to fight Shelob?

In ROTK, EE yes, Saruman fell on one.

Because he was bored, and so was Shelob.

Well, Gandalf was known to smoke pipe-weed, the one thing discovered by the Hobbits. But Gandalf felt that even the best (strongest) Hobbit pipe-weed was lacking something, and Radagast was the source of the mushrooms which gave pipe-weed the needed extra kick.

Why did Radagast decide on rabbits as his sled-pullers?

Because there were oodles and oodles to choose from, he didn't have to worry about attrition due to over-work ...... and, frankly, he thought they were just soooo darned cute.

Why did Bilbo really decide to accompany the Dwarfs on their quest to Erebor?

Because he thought that as a tag team him and Aragorn could take out his dad and Haldirand win the WWE Tag Team championship.

Why did Elladan and Elrohir come with the rangers to help Aragorn?

They had gone to the Shire stalking the Ringwraiths, but had missed them. So they figured tagging along with the rangers would be their best chance to find the baddies they were looking for.

Why did Radagast decide to use a sled year round, and not just in Winter?

Well it would mean that he was feeding the rabbits, and they were doing squat. So he put the sled to good use.

Why did the were worms help the orcs?

Every time someone mentioned them to Elves Dwarves or Men, some joker always had to say "where, worms?" which really upset them.

Why did Tulkas come later into Arda?

He saw this ball rolling down a hill and chased over it. When the ball disappeared he kept running and fell into a pit. A pit that Sauron just happened to dig.

That is something Morgoth may have figured out, but he is sulking and not telling.

Why did the army attacking Minas Tirith in the Third Age not simply use Morgoth's original hammer Grond, instead of constructing that wussy wolf-headed battering-ram?

You're talking PJ fanfic movie here ...

He realized that they were not Brandywine Hobbits like Merry, and so would not survive the crossing of the river.

Why did the Lord of the Nazgûl, formerly aka The Witch-King, not realize that Merry, with his spell-bound dagger from the barrow near Tom Bombadil's home, was a deadly threat to him (and never mind Éowyn)?

"Believe and you will find your way."

He had spotted Legolas in the distance sliding down one of the oliphaunts and was distracted long enough for Merry to get close to him and stab him.

Why did Gandalf really leave Bilbo and his Companions after they arrived at the edge of Mirkwood?

He tripped over Bombur's feet and accidentally knocked into the axe that Glóin was holding in preparation of killing an Orc.

It was mummified by everyone's tears (dwarven tears are especially salty) and laid to rest in a stone vault.

Roäc wasn't exactly a youngster at the time, and had only had converse with Dwarves when he was a youngster, so put it down to avian senility.

Several days underground without any sunlight to highlight his (as he thought) impressive hair was just not something he was ready to deal with.

The surroundings being so rocky, anywhere reasonably close to where they were they would have needed some of the stuff Saruman used at Helm's Deep to dig a grave - and they did not have that stuff.

Why did the boat bearing Boromir including all contents survive the Falls of Rauros undamaged?

It was caught by a little Gondorian boy who pretended he was a great Captain of Gondor and slayed orcs all afternoon until his mother called him into supper and the little boy threw down the broken horn and forgot all about it. The Anduin picked it up again and delivered it to a fisherman, who gave it to his daughter, who in turn gave it to her lover, who just happened to be a Tower Guard. And he gave it to the steward.

Is Maglor still around singing a lament on the Eastern most shores of this world?

Apparently, he has not left the building yet and has been seen hanging around a variety of Emo style concerts picking up new ideas for more songs.

Why on earth did Maedhros (nice avi btw, Cenor) decide to fling himself into a fiery chasm of all things, why not just throw the stupid jewel in and keep on trucking?

He actually tried to throw the stupid jewel in, but it had become stuck to his hand. And since he threw it with such violence and was standing too close to the edge, it drew him into the chasm. Chicken droppings happen.

Why was Maglor able to throw away his Silmaril, in contrast to Maedhros (see above)?

Since Bilbo's short stay with them, they hadn't really gotten the Hobbit / rabbit confusion sorted out.
