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.

An attack on us would pretty much solidify Bush's support. I hope it doesn't happen though.

I actually fear the opposite. If an attack does happen, the Dems will say that Bush did not do enough to protect American citizens.

Certain Dems are SO evil, they would go as far as to say that he wanted this attack to happen to solify support for his "war for oil."

Praying hard here!

Scary stuff.

What's scarier is that Iraq is only a tiny piece of the puzzle. So going after them...well, it's only part of a large group that hates our guts.

Well...when this started I was feeling guilty about wanting a slightly better mandolin, and though maybe it's not the right approach, I basically said that if it sold right away, I'd kinda take that as a sign that it was OK, given that the mandolin I'm looking at SHOULD be a hot seller and has not been, and I figured mine would be even harder. So I guess I'm OK?

That was pretty much it. They took questions, but they didn't give a lot of specifics.

I already called Glen and my mom to let them know what my game plan is if anything happens to my building and/or I can't use the phone and/or I can't drive anywhere.

I've got to buy some baby formula, I'm down to one can.

Knowing that they are wise not to tip their hand doesn't make the vagueness any less frustrating. Grrrr. Thanks, tho.

I know I'm a baaad hobbit but....

...wouldn't it be ironic if they suicide-bombed an anti-war rally?
