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.

I am back! - Ruthy and 2J have stinky mail coming!

Jen will, as soon as she gets back to me about her address. The package is ready.

Who needs mail still? Those that haven't gotten any mail yet can now ask me! - Those that got the mediocre first round, I can get back around to you too.

Anyone wanna chat?

I don't think it is just the creepy bobble-heads, it is the eyes, too. The eyes are cocked. Or something.

I thought your son's haiku was lovely.

And now

I will share with the Hobbit Holers the only haiku, I can recall, that I have written. It is a chili haiku (and so a perfect haiku, eh?), written in response to someone telling me there should be beans in a pot of chili, and I disagree. They should be served separately.

The title

Concerto Grosso

beans and good chili
a concerto of drumbeats
enjoyed best alone

;^)

Didn't she look revolting? I mean really...what was she thinking. I can't imagine her walking by and people not just busting out laughing.

I haven't got any smoky cookies yet...;^) Are you putting some pipe weed from the South Farthing in those?

my biggest question would be why that idea occurred to whoever it occurred to

You know, when you put it that way, it does take on a more disturbing air....
