The Hobbit Hole VI - And Whither Then? I Cannot Say...

[ecurbh]

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And Whither Then? I Cannot Say...

• 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!)
• Fourth Thread: The Hobbit Hole IV - The Road Goes Ever On...
• Fifth Thread: The Hobbit Hole V - Where Many Paths and Errands Meet...

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.

Take pictures.

Hey. Call me tomorrow if you want to talk some. We'll practice throwing food together!

[Wneighbor]

Oops... Weather warning just came on. Roads frozen all over the place. Ya know, people in Texas can't drive like this. YIKES!!!

[Corin Stormhands]

Take pictures.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Were you planning on driving at this hour, anyway?

[Wneighbor]

You don't think *I'm* gettin' out there do ya? I'm warm and toasty in here! :-)

News tomorrow should have lots of pictures! Drivers in Texas do interesting things on ice.

Bear, I like exciting driving. Going fast. Driving dangerous. But, gettin' out on the roads with the *other* Texans on ice. Nope. That adrenaline rush I don't want.

[Corin Stormhands]

g'nite, my eyes are a fadin'

[Wneighbor]

G'night Corin. You and the Mrs. have a wonderful Valentines tomorrow... whatever you decide to do. :-)

[Wneighbor]

OH MY GOSH!!! I just noticed your tag-line!!! CAN I HAVE IT?!?!?

[Ramius]

I'm back... got distracted in a convo with a couple of people. One of them is a guy with the Army and the other is a gal with Microsoft.

The Army guy, turns out, works on a lot of stuff in systems development like what my company has been doing with the 82nd AB. Business cards were exchanged.

I did an interesting thing while driving on ice, once. Rather, I should say, the car did an interesting thing...

Our nasty weather isn't supposed to arrive until 2 or 3 in the morning...

[Wneighbor]

That's a very cool contact! Good deal! Did ya'll talk much about what your company is doing and what he is doing?

Do you need a back scratchin' to relieve you Valentines woes? :-)

*flexing fingers*

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Have a good night!

believe it or not, there's more Marines in the postal occupations in the brig than anyone else... those guys are always gettin' burned... fargin' bastiges...

I wouldn't have them serve a day in the brig. A small tattoo on the arm, "mail thief", and then transfer them to an infantry unit. Problem solved, and nobody else steals mail any more.

[Wneighbor]

They're saying that about ours too. But, since we don't build roads here to accomodate icy conditions there are several places in the area that the news is warning people about already. By the time the bad stuff gets here - no telling what it'll be like.

Of course, I am *still* skeptical that anything will really show up. They're promising too much. Nothing will happen.

You never did tell us feedback from Rose's interviews... or else I missed it.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

CAN I HAVE IT?!?!?

Sure! Do you recognize where it's from?

[Ramius]

Showed some pics of the robots and landwarrior and the Scorpion headgear. He knew what it was... it was fun.

A little scratch would be nice, thanks... :-)

Decision made. You're in charge now.

[Wneighbor]

Nope.
