Question time!!!

Did Bilbo use the ring when he first found it??
If he did, why didn't the bad guy fo find him earlier?!!
What's the deal with the Eye??..I know it's the bad guy, but why an Eye??
Why doesn't Gollum die with out the ring??Is it because he's following them and so is still close to the ring?
How long did Bilbo have the ring??..Again, if for a while, why didn't Gollum die??
Thats enough for now???
I'll be back!
