The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!
Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Journey to the Cross-roads
The Two Towers Edition
Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)
Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

I won't be coming to the moot, but I'll be watching here for reports, or waiting to see if you made the national news somehow.
To: 300winmag; RMDupree; HairOfTheDog; g'nad
We'll miss you. But g'nad and I will toss back a few car bombs in your honor.
Later folkses. I'm out of here for now.
To: RMDupree
Hey! You forgot me on your list! I can sleep on a couch or something, I don't care.

To everyone who wished me a happy birthday: thank you, and it's going nicely so far. Who'd like some cake and pizza?

I should really get out there and mow some weeds while I'm still thinking about it.

GUESS WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO ME AND MY JEDIS!!!! YOu know we live in the flight path of the military helicopters. They fly over all the time, sometimes in 2s and 3s. They have a very distinctive thumping sound. They are usually not very high up.
The other day, we heard one coming and as is our habit, we all three dashed out into the yard and waved. The helicopter "appeared" to swerve towards us, but then it went on it's way.
JUST NOW, we heard the thumping sound and dashed out into the front yard just like always (we've been doing this since Sept. 11th). THIS TIME, the helicopter turned, and curved around, flew RIGHT OVER our house, made a big circle right over our house!!!
By the time I figured out what they were doing, I had jerked the flag off the front of the house and was waving it fiercely! They completed the loop around our house and then flew back onto their original course and flew away.
It was one of the most momentous things to ever happen to me in my life. I just called HOTD and left a message on her machine. I'm nearly beside myself!

To: JenB
I'm just shocked and awed! LOL I wondered if they ever saw us down there, and I thought they did when they swerved at us last week...
But today it was obvious. They flew right over to our house, circled around and the flew back to their course and on their way.

Maybe they have an FBI file on you!
To: BibChr
The funny thing is, I was telling Steve about it and he said "Oh, I bet the boys were excited." I thought about it and I guess they were while it was happening, but really they just took it all in stride. This is just normal life for them! Ha!
