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.

What do you call someone who hangs around with musicians?

A drummer

Hey Ruthy, Jeanne made some chimmichurri sauce for her visiting sister over the weekend, when we grilled steaks and some venison.

My SIL, who loved it, thought the stuff ought to be put on Italian (or Cuban) bread (not French ;-/) and could make a great garlic bread. I kind of agree, though I am going to skip eating bread for a few days here.

'Course some of us don't have any musical ability at all.

I don't believe that! I think everyone has some ability...just takes work to develop it.

LOTS of work in my case...

Hi Hair, are you well yet?

I don't know about drums, our dance instructor keeps telling me to stop confusing Jeanne by being off the beat :-D

I went to bed early... Was still achy. And now my cable is out (both internet and TV) so I am fiddle-farting around on dialup at 21.6.

Sorry to be missing!

We will pick up the drums quick enough....

And even if we don't they have the most fun in the band anyway, sittin' in the back.

Oh, that's ok. It's just that it's easy for me to make you laugh, I think. My joking around seems to fall a bit flat with others!

HEY! Jrs. a drummer, and he's pretty darn good. But the other boys in the neighborhood wanting to start a band tell him if he doesn't have a drum set by his birthday (which he will, but not because of them), then he "can't be in the band."

Of course, none of them actually play an instrument at all...

Makes me wanna whack 'em with a stick.

We're spending about $500.00. It's an "okay" set.

How does that work?? How can it be a band if they don't play instruments?

Drummer jokes are pretty much synonymous with banjo jokes, aren't they? (And viola jokes, accordian jokes, and to a certain extent, bagpipe jokes...)
