As stated previously, Tolkien did one major "slip of the pen" while writing the events of Middle-Earth and that was, of course, calling me "Bill the Pony" and not "Bill the Horse."  I however would like to make it clear that I'm not in any way mad at or blame Tolkien for this grave mistake.  Tolkien was taken by rumors from the culprit of this slander. 

SHADOWFAX....Shadowfax is the reason history has been slanted in this cruel way.  He was always a "show boat" and felt he was the "King of horses" when it was more like "King of horse dung."  Shadowfax was very jealous of the fact I was part of the Fellowship and he talked Gandalf into cutting me out of the action as soon as he could.  He lead Gandalf in thinking I would steal his glory if I was kept in the Fellowship.  Shadowfax was really quite a coward and it was so funny how he was protrayed as the fasted horse in Middle-Earth when they only reason he ran so fast was out of FEAR!!!  So to ruin my good name and hopefully steal the glory I deserve, Shadowfax started calling me "Bill the Pony" and told the tales of the journey stressing the "Pony" to everyone who would listen.  You know how bad rumors spead and boy did it ever!!!  Next thing I realized, everyone was calling me a run down little pony that could barely carry a hobbit...Damn Shadowfax....

Sadly, this rumor is here to stay!!!  Especially now that Hollywood has made our journey into a blockbuster hit and they wouldn't relent on not calling me a "Pony" because they liked the idea of me being the "underdog."  Peter Jackson also told me he hated to change Tolkien's work like that even if Tolkien got it wrong in calling me a Pony.  After seeing The Two Towers I realized Jackson was feeding me a BIG line with that one.......
