16. The mystery of the Menehunes explained

As it is high time for an informative post I shall now write one. Now on the island of Kauai which is formed by one massive volcano, there once was a race of people called the Menehunes who were presumably very “short” or “vertically challenged” in todays vocabulary. Now, these people built a highly complex dam which would allow the tide to go in and out, but not the fish. They also built a stone irrigation system. Both of these were built of cut stone and also both are food related. Presumably when the Menehunes disappeared they went into one of the remote valleys of the island where the hand of modern man has never set foot.

Now in order to explain my theory on where the Menehunes went I shall first explain where I think they came from. Now if you will remember the Menehunes are supposedly very short, and also appear to be fond of food. Now who else is fond of food and short? Hobbits of course. Now the west has always had a great attraction to most of those from middle earth as supposedly the undying lands are in that direction. So eventually they sailed west. However some got blown off course and landed in the area now know as Africa and later became known as Pigmies. But the rest made it to America where some stayed later to resurface during World War Two as Gremlins. However as they continued to journey west they eventually found the Pacific Ocean, and I doubt they called it that as Pacific means peaceful. Building more boats they continued sailing west until they came to Hawaii and the island of Kauai where, as they were hungry of course, they built the before mentioned dam and irrigation system. As Hobbits are extremely quiet and quick at hiding it is entirely possible that they are still there, so long as the food doesn’t run out. However some of them eventually departed from Hawaii after which they went to New Zealand which reminded them of Middle Earth. After waiting some time in New Zealand they eventually were able to play themselves in a recent movie that came out filmed in New Zealand.

So hopefully this has been interesting and informative and perhaps someday I shall explain what could have happened to the Sphinx’s nose.
