The Hobbit Hole VI - And Whither Then? I Cannot Say...

[ecurbh]

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And Whither Then? I Cannot Say...

• First thread: New Zealander builds Hobbit hole
• Second thread: The New Hobbit Hole
• Third thread: The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads! (Congratulations, we filled it up!)
• Fourth Thread: The Hobbit Hole IV - The Road Goes Ever On...
• Fifth Thread: The Hobbit Hole V - Where Many Paths and Errands Meet...

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

The same one. The lion was pretty good, except that his mouth didn't move in sync with what he was saying, which was a bit disconcerting.

But many of the other animals weren't exactly realistic, to say the least.

[Fedora]

Did they actually serve these? Seriesly?

I'm series! :) They used to serve them until they suddenly stopped for no apparent reason a few years ago. Everyone I know wishes they still served them.

~thinking about trip to Seattle~

[RosieCotton]

Guess I'll just have to try the homemade version some time!

[Fedora]

Didn't hear about the Wizard Kabob--ouch!--that looks painful!!! Must remind Christopher Lee of his days getting staked as Dracula :)

[Fedora]

Yeah, now that you mention it I remember that.

But many of the other animals weren't exactly realistic, to say the least.

I guess I don't remember the other animals, I just remember the lion. There was an earlier cartoon adaptation which I liked better than that one. BTW, I read recently about a proposed movie adaptation--did you hear about that?

[RosieCotton]

Do you remember the beavers? Those are the ones that stick the most in my memory. People in big, awkward, obviously rubber beaver suits.

Yeah...I've heard that they're doing another adaptation...and that Disney may be heading it up. I'm trying to hope for the best. But with a movie that is FAR more analogous than LOTR, I'm a little worried. I don't think it's possible to MAKE it without Christian symbolism, but they'll probably try. Grrrr.

Green milkshakes are just strange. I like chocolate... not McDonalds, though, a real chocolate malt so thick you almost need a spoon.

[Darksheare]

LOL!
*winces*
Now THAT'S scary..

[HairOfTheDog]

Well, the pic came out real early.... During the FoTR buzz. At that time, the Wizard Kabob was debunked as a "Canary Trap"... a deliberate false rumour designed to find whatever internal spy was releasing photos they didn't want released.

But then again.... that could be the cover story for the cover story. I tell you what, if he lands on that dang spikey wheel in the SEE, I will bust a gut laughing.

If you made 'em at home, though, you could use better ingredients.

But yeah...chocolate malts are the BEST! There's a local ice cream place that makes their own ice cream, or did...now I think they get it from a place in Maine, but it's still fresh made, premium stuff. They charge something like $2.50 for a HUGH chocolate malt, with LOTS of malt. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it! But they won't open until May. *snif*

[Lil'freeper]

Ok- Happy Camper Alert.

Not only is it FRIDAY!!! (yaaaay)

BUT

A major component of my current project... WORKED! (the first time even).

I'm dancing like Snoopy. Oh happy day!

[JenB]

Sigh... shouldn't even be thinking about chocolate malts... I've been dieting and exercising and I feel good but the scale hasn't budged in ages. I REALLY want to lose another size before graduation but I just don't know if that's going to happen.

[RosieCotton]

Well...if it makes you feel any better, I didn't lose anything this week either. Scale actually said I gained.

On the other hand, I swear I look and feel trimmer.

I should probably go try a scale that I trust as accurate, or better yet just pitch the thing and concentrate on exercise and such.

[Fedora]

Do you remember the beavers? Those are the ones that stick the most in my memory. People in big, awkward, obviously rubber beaver suits.

Yeah, you could tell it wasn't a real beaver family--the makeup wasn't very good:

:)

I didn't know Disney was doing the adaptation. That could be bad news. . .

[RosieCotton]

Smart aleck...

Yeah. Disney. So says the rumor mill, in any case.

[Fedora]

Green milkshakes are just strange. I like chocolate... not McDonalds, though, a real chocolate malt so thick you almost need a spoon.

The Shamrock Shake is actually the only McDonald's shake I like. The others are too thin. Not the same as a real maltshake--those are good :)

[Fedora]

Interesting! Speaking of Christopher Lee, this just went up recently:

Christopher Lee Web: The Official Site

[JenB]

Mmm... my clothes are looser, but the numbers still look nasty to me. I suppose I should care more about how I feel. Vanity, vanity, all is vanity.

[RosieCotton]

Heh...and then I made the mistake of browsing some of the forums at the coolrunning site. Lotsa women saying "I'm 5'8 and weigh 128, but I'd really like to lose five pounds or so...what do you think I should do?"

They need slappin'.
