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.

Good morning poet dwarf! Beautiful poems in the morning make me sorry I slept in!
To: ksen
Would any of that have happened as soon without the teasing? Nope, assuredly not!
So I guess, in a way, I owe my tormenters a bit of gratitude for delivering me from eternal geekiness. :)

Good morning Rosie!
Did ya build any walls?
Did you get out of the Bronze age?
To: rightwingreligiousfanatic
There are several pages out there that attribute the quote to Red.
Was it the basketball coach or the German author? I dunno, do you?
Found this.
To: HairOfTheDog
Built lots of walls! And lots of catapaults! And archers. I beat up on my brother pretty good. He doesn't do walls...just makes lots and lots of military guys and hopes I don't have the strength to withstand him. Works sometimes, but not always!
To: rightwingreligiousfanatic
I adore Peretti's stuff!
I first got caught up after reading This Present Darkness and Piercing the Darkness. Those books gave me a whole different perspective on "spiritual warfare", without a doubt.

Welcome Alouette!
I know the quote you are talking about, I think it is in the Letters. Hopefully one of the folks that has the Letters will post it!
To: HairOfTheDog
Have you seen the pictures of me backstage at Judas Priest? ;~D LOL! Nope, but I'd love to? Did you bow down and say "I'm not worthy!" like the fellas in Wayne's World did upon meeting Alice Cooper? *grin*

I tried downloading that sucker - WHEW! By the time Kontiki was finished installing, I was fed up with my crawling browser and stopped the movie download. It was frustrating trying to catch up on the posts with things moving soooo slllooowwwlllly. UGH!
I'll definitely do it later though! After all, it is Sean's work. hehehehe.

Welcome to the Hobbit Hole! Don't be intimidated by the posts. I joined at ... 4,000+ posts I think? Everyone here is very friendly and it's easy to jump right in!
To: Corin Stormhands
I'm certain it was Berthold.... Dave has the right theory on his blog...somebody misattributed it to Red, not knowing that any other Auerbach ever existed.... (someone educated in American public schools in the last couple of decades, perhaps? *ducking*) ;^)
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
I'm glad you liked the pics of Sophia! :)
She's a beautiful woman and from the era when you didn't have to be nekkid to be sexy. The good ol days!

I knew you smoked! I could smell it on the cookies! I remember the first batch of cookies I got from you last year...I thought "Ha! Hair smokes!"
Didn't take away from my enjoyment of the cookies though! No, not at all.
;-)
LOL!! Oh, my stomach hurts from all the laughing I did yesterday and here I go again!

Good morning Ruthie... I am still getting caught up here myself!
All of my outside lights burned out last night. (I have an outdoor light fetish) If I wasn't still alive, I would say I had been invaded.
So when it gets light out, I will go change the bulbs.
(It's too dark to make light. I have to wait until it is light out to make light)
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Gollum looks good in pink! It really brings out his eyes and brings color to those cheeks.
At any rate, he looks a heckuva lot better than Joan Rivers!
