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.

The cookies are all baked and packaged up and ready to go...I had to swing by walmart to buy some packaging material and then I saw some stir-fry in a bag, so I bought that and now I'm eating it. As soon as I'm done, I'll get these cookies in the mail.

Thank you ecurbh! - You are one of my inspirations! You have an incredible courage to decide one day you are gonna just 'up and move' and trust that it will all work out! - If I could be half as brave as that, I will be OK. I only need the courage to go to town. ;~D

I've liked him since the Winn-Dixie days.....as for why he switched to Viagra, I figure it's none of my business.

I don't follow NASCAR, but he's been Jr's favorite driver since he (Jr) was "6" (get it?). I hated having to explain the sponsorship change...

Yeah, but the difference is that I could be in Kentucky in 16 hours, 29 minutes by car! :)

Ananova - Serbian TV station broadcast 'bootleg' Lord of the Rings
Serbian TV station broadcast 'bootleg' Lord of the Rings

A Serbian TV station is in trouble after allegedly screening a bootleg version of The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers videoed in a cinema.

Angry fans who tuned in to the poor quality pirate version say their enjoyment was ruined.

TV channel Enigma showed the copy of the film just weeks after its European premiere.

Fan, Ivan Solic, 21, said: "I have been waiting for ages to see this film, and then it turns up on telly.

"I was going to take my girlfriend to see it, but she can't be bothered going now."

The TV channel is likely to face legal action from the Association of Film Distributors of Yugoslavia and Yugoslav anti-pirate association.

Now, I think it is a riot that they actually screened an audience bootleg on TV.... But the guy's reaction is ridiculously silly. "I was gonna go see it, but I won't now, it's ruined" is a really weird response!

His sponsor is Pfizer. They pick what goes on the car.

There were two cars. Winn Dixie sponsored the Busch circuit car and Martin retired from Busch racing a few years ago.

The only Walton I have is a Little Black...it sounds like a cat being strangled. Not pretty. One of my brothers has a Mellow D, though. Brass. It's pretty nice!

Two hours until I have to kiss my "old" mandolin goodbye...it ships out this afternoon. Going to NC, as a matter of fact!
