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.

Kind of like getting fresh new notebooks at the beginning of school.

Yeah, I was thinkin' it's kinda like the end of our senior year. We should be getting ready for the prom and getting measured for cap and gown...

I was a social recluse in high school.

Among other things, I belonged to the Chess Club.

Now you know why I do so well on the Geek Test.

Me neither, but I will tell it. My boyfriend broke up with me and was going with someone else. For reasons I can't exactly recall, my mother had him come over on his way to the prom so she coulc take a picture of him in his tux. I have the picture.... Me lookin' dressed for a night eating BonBons on the couch.... him standing there on the way to the prom.

Speaking of cleaning up the office, my boss and I have started the process of emptying files and dumping old paperwork. Very hard to get inspired to tackle such a project and even LESS inspiring when it's something you don't want to do in the first place.

However, I just found out that a company right here in the same building is hiring. I just sent in my resume and am hoping to get called for an interview soon!

Should we notify the JR's?

How about I start a thread on the News side entitled "Come and Watch a Thread Implode!" or maybe "Say Goodbye to the Hobbit Hole III!".

That last one would make a couple FReepers happy, at least until they found out about "The Hobbit Hole IV - To the Undying Lands, and Beyond!"

I as well. I was more of a Band Geek, although I was on the Academic Decathalon team for a while.

Should I have LIED to him? ;^)

ABSOLUTELY!!!!!! Do you really even need to ask that question?

I'm with Corin... some things are just common sense... like... kickin' a man when he's down, or shootin' prisoners...
