Boromir is on a mission to find the answer to his dream he had. He appears to be a strong man, proud, tall, and fair. However, his will is fatally weak, and he sucuumbs to the power of the ring and tries to claim it. The same can be said for his father Denethor. Also, Saruman claims to dislike pipe-weed, and mocks Gandalf for it, yet he in fact actually smokes it himself. Galadriel appears to be a fair elf-queen, yet when roused can be terrifying and terrible.

SPOILER WARNING: In The Lord of the Rings, we learn that the ring is imbued with evil power that almost invariably corrupts its owner. In addition, the ring causes those who are already powerful to gain in power.
2. Gandalf presents himself to the hobbits as an old wizard who influences hobbits to do eccentric things, such as go on adventures. In the _Lord of the Rings_, we find out he and all the wizards are actually messengers sent to bring out the good in Middle-Earth.
3. In the Misty Mountains, The Hobbit, dwarves and Gandalf take refuge in a cave. The cave turns out to have a secret entrance in the back, where goblins ambush and kidnap them.

Is Frodo Baggins a kid or a grown-up?
At the beginning of the Fellowship of the Ring Frodo is 33 years old, which is the "coming of age" age for Hobbits. So he would seem older in our eyes than to another Hobbit. Nevertheless he is an adult.

How long is The Hobbit written by JRR Tolkien?
There is some challenge to what the time frame was. It was about 7 or eight years, but could have been a bit longer. It was published in 1937. His sons seem to recall parts of the story from sometime in the 1928 to 1930 time frame.

Why is Pi 3.142 and not 3.14?
3.142 are only the first three digits of Pi. It is an irrational number and goes on infinitely. It is one of the fundamentals of the universe in which we live. There does not seem to be a 'why' for such things.
What values are important to the elves in The Hobbit?
In 'The Hobbit', the elves are described as a fun-loving people. While the dwarves approach Rivendell, the elves sing taunting songs at them, but Tolkien also mentions several times that they are very wise. Elrond is described as 'as kind as summer', among other things. So I would think that the elves do not take things too seriously, value kindness, but also wisdom, and some (the Elvenking of Mirkwood, for example) value their privacy and secrecy. Craftsmanship also seems important, as does music. The Elvenking also seemed very proud. In 'The Lord of the Rings', the descriptions of the elves make them seem far more 'serious', with less of the merrymaking described in 'The Hobbit'.
