The Hobbit Hole IV – The Road Goes Ever On…

[HairOfTheDog]

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

The Road Goes Ever On…

• First thread: New Zealander builds Hobbit hole
• Second thread: The New Hobbit Hole
• Third thread: The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads! (Congratulations, we filled it up!)

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

[Prof Engineer]

mine?

Dan'g, I thought you had more discipline than that.

hey... gotta offset the bad jujuj from the 666 post...

[300winmag]

other options, yuh got some heavy wire tuh make a snare?...

I hadn't thought about a snare, but I might scrounge up some cable. The big problem is getting turned in by bleeding-heart neighbors. I'd just as soon the groundhog moved to THEIR houses, instead.

A buddy is president of his condo association. He said they trap groundhogs by using moist cat food as bait. The problem becomes, what do you do with a grumpy groundhog? He said he could come over and "screen" me while I popped the critter. I have some .22 BB caps that are about as noisy as a pellet gun, and a nice S&W .22 revolver to shoot it in.

ROFLOL

[g'nad]

hey, a ball bat werks great... trust me... even better with a great big nail or a few bolts hangin' out...

[Wneighbor]

I'd load up my "dressage show special" with .38 shotshells, but my mom is opposed because this is a built-up suburb. But she isn't opposed to me trying to cut him in half with a heavy-bladed ice chopper.

At least it sounds like you have an adventure in store winmag!

[Prof Engineer]

Great 911 tribute on your site. Thanks man.

[HairOfTheDog]

Wow - these fancy stats are impressive Bear!

[Prof Engineer]

Varmit Cong...

[Wneighbor]

It appears I'm becoming a bit of a chatterbox.

And here I was certain you were going to be #1 on the list. I'm going to have to shut up for the next few weeks.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Thanks... it's pretty easy now, though. I have a template, and just have to plug in the new numbers each time.

[Prof Engineer]

And here I was certain you were going to be #1 on the list. I'm going to have to shut up for the next few weeks.

I slipped Bear $50 the other night.

[ecurbh]

I'm going to have to shut up for the next few weeks.

ROTFLMAO!! That is just hilarious!

[Wneighbor]

settling into the lobby lounge here at the Sofitel... and lo and behold... there's free wireless. Wouldn'tcha know it.

Gee, who would've ever guessed!

1992. ELEVEN years ago. While I do still technically own that suit, I don't come even close to fitting in it. That's from when I was skinny. Now I am fat.

Well, I am not fat! And yet I still can't fit into the clothes I wore in '92! I finally gave them to Myranda last year. They are 2 sizes smaller than I am now! NO FAT COMMENTS!

[Wneighbor]

This is not a good sign. WN and I are be sabotaged by Backgammon...

It's a conspiracy. I bet they should each have a 500 post penalty added for all the backgammon!

[Wneighbor]

I think I'm just going to have to start going back home on the weekends again. If I only post 4 days a week I ought to be okay.

[Wneighbor]

The big problem is getting turned in by bleeding-heart neighbors.

Neighbors need to go too sounds like to me.

[Ramius]

You may not be, and from the pictorial evidence you would appear to be telling the truth :-) But something happened to me just in the last couple of years... [sigh]

Maybe it's all the sitting around doing nothing, or maybe it's all the beer... Nah. That couldn't be it.

[Wneighbor]

So my numbers ARE really your numbers!

I think what it is man is that you just don't freep enough from work!
