The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

[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.

Isn't it, "And a mug of beer inside this Took"?

Bye everyone, going out shopping for a little...then we are meeting friends for sushi (that sounds elvish, tho I identity more w/ hobbits). But I understand why fish like the stuff, raw fish tastes good, kind of like eating bait, really.

I have fallen into Shadow. The Elf-Bashing Syndrome has won.

Enjoy your cut bait!

Dating Golden Rule #5: Never date a man that doesn't like action flicks.

[HairOfTheDog]

(Both from personal experience)

#5 Never date an adult man who has a Steven Segal poster in his bedroom (Now, Aragorn, I would not hold against him)

#6 Never date an adult man whose mother still does his laundry.

Can we add in one that says - never date a man who reminds you of a Star Wars droid?

He'd be in BIG trouble if he accepted it. BIG TROUBLE. It would be a test on whether or not he accepted it. Even if he was 23.

He would be ushered to the door so fast!

"Isn't it, "And a mug of beer inside this Took"?"

Maybe! I had better watch it again and try that one...I am still undecided about "red meat off the bone," for that matter.

[HairOfTheDog]

Yes, but see my #5.... It isn't that simple!

[RMDupree]

I tell ya! When I worked in the staffing industry, it was common knowledge that a good worker was great, but a good worker with a sense of humor was gold!

Very easy to place in perm positions and usually they stick! Had to be careful not to get the "class clown" though. The work ethic starts to slip a bit there.

I dunno. The raw fish part sounds more like Gollum...

[HairOfTheDog]

Ushered to the door if he was 23? Oh 2J... that is a terrible tricksy test.

[RMDupree]

Yup, Haldir was a hottie.

His teeth are too big. :)

But at least he didn't scream like a woman when he got deep-sixed.

[RMDupree]

Wait until C3PO shows up. He'll be stiff and awkward, with a know-it-all attitude and will whine about everything. LOL!

[Sam Cree]

"The raw fish part sounds more like Gollum..."

I'll be sure to think of that during dinner, thanks :-)

[RMDupree]

Bye Sam!

Sushi!? *shudder*

[Overtaxed]

Heheh.....

Alive without breath,
Cold as death....

[HairOfTheDog]

Sushi is more like chewing on your own cheek.

oh oh. I don't know what to think about that one. I'm afraid as a single parent I've had to be creative though. I finally had to back down the R2D2 character. Okay guys, don't laugh, I put on my best most feminine business suit and went up with my best Clint Eastwood imitation and told his to stay away from my daughter or I'd have him thrown in jail.

I figured I was threatening him so if he called the cops and I was all frilly they'd know what a dork he was. But, I was ready to deal with whatever I had to. He was physical abuse waiting to happen. Very possessive. He pushed me out of his way once to try to keep me from a discussion with her. Pushed as in aggressively. That was when he got the boot.
