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.

There needs to be a law against whatever that is.

Why do I get a picture in my head of a bunch of hippies dressed like Gandalf sitting in a circle trying to make shapes out of their smoke rings?

And why can I picture them actually seeing something take shape in the smoke? *wink*

Again from TolkienTown:

Product Information
Tobacco - Middle-Earth Blend
Our Price - $8.99
Tobacco - Middle-Earth Blend (50g pouch)
This unusual aromatic and earthy blend of the finest tobaccos available offers both smokeyness and rich flavor with a pleasant smoothness. Now improved with greater smoothness, better flavor and a hint of Black Raspberry! Blended with smoke ring makers in mind, this blend is both smokey and gentle as a room aroma. The flavor is entirely unique and pleasant to all. Packed well and smoked in a thick walled pipe will give opportunity to get the fires going hot enough to make great clouds of smoke and rings to your hearts content.

Makes me want to take up smoking again......;^)

I swear it happened to me once! In the past, of course... That smoke ring looked just like a big nice hot donut!! Had to make a run to Dunkin' Donuts, don't you know?

HA! Well, if the pipe makers know their stuff, they may take a long time making them... I am not picturing a speedy manufacture process. ;~D

That does sound good. I actually love the smell of pipe tobacco. It's some of those cheapo cigars that really kill me and I'm a smoker!
