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.

"Part of the late-90's runnup in high-tech was part of the dotbomb bubble, and that part will not be recovered, and rightfully so. The basic business was not there to support it."

Yeah, makes lots of sense, I agree.

The threat of terrorism, IMO, represents an ever present storm cloud on the economic horizon. I'm hoping that the Democrats can forget self interest long enough to allow us to combat it effectively. Tho I'm sure that's wishful thinking.

I was reading the posts last night and meant to post to you that a Gondorian would be a fine choice for a man. ;^)

I'm still not SURE he's a Gondorian. I mean...it's a little early in the relationship to start inquiring about skivvies, or the lack thereof.

Did I just write that? *blush*

Seriesly, at this point it's just a friend I met through a Catholic site (my denomination), but we've become penpals and talked a few times on the phone. That's all.

Not sure. I'm just blindly charging into the fray, content that it will implode when the time is right.
