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.

Sounds like a good business opportunity to me.

Gondor has no UN. Gondor needs no UN
To: Overtaxed
But Gondor doesn't have jurisdiction over Iraq. They're clearly in Far Harad somewhere.

I thought it sounded like a good idea too.
There's a pessimist in any group, isn't there!

I think we can take 'em.

Speaking of hyenas, those were cool hyenas in TTT.
To: Sam Cree
Big hyenas!
To: HairOfTheDog; Sam Cree
Big mean hyenas!
To: Sam Cree
I think they were demon warthogs, myself...

Don't warthogs have tusks?

Hyenas wearing saddles!

Check this out:


Click the WSJ Logo link above... and scroll down to the article: "The Web Gets a Scoop". It is about LeadPenny's thread for shuttle watchers that reported first that something was wrong with Columbia yesterday.
To: HairOfTheDog
I saw that earlier... it's kinda sad, but a real testimony to the powers of the internet.
Funny thing is, the poem I posted yesterday, "Green Hills of Earth"? I've found it about a half dozen places today, people talking about the crash. Sometimes a million people think of the same thing at the same time. But this one is the nicest I've seen...

There's a thread about this under "Breaking News"
To: Overtaxed
Yeah... that's where I got it!
To: JenB
Yes, I saw that poem posted all over the place yesterday too. It fits.
To: HairOfTheDog
I started following it when this thread appeared in the sidebar:
Shuttle Contact LOST-No Tracking Data During RE-Entry!
To: HairOfTheDog
It's comforting to know when things like that happen there are so many others caring at the same time.
