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.

Well if we're doing Bette Davis, how about All About Eve and Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?
To: Overtaxed
Best Bette Davis movie: "Old Acquaintance"
To: Overtaxed
And
Dark Victory? That one has Bogart in it, too...in a rather bizarre role as an Irish groom. He wasn't very good at the accent...
What the...?
To: RosieCotton
Something tells me you like accents?
I like the era when men in movies were mature - even if they were 20 years old, they looked classy. Then the 'eternal teenager' look came in and spoiled leading men.
To: NewCenturions
Something tells me you like accents? Hmmm...I hadn't even thought about it that way! I guess maybe that's part of it?
Charles Boyer was also one of the handsomest actors ever, though.
I miss the suits! And the hats! There's something about a man in a nice suit with a hat...

There's something about a man in a nice suit with a hat... No kidding- I melt like butter!

To: RosieCotton
Charles Boyer = cheese-eating surrender monkey
To: RosieCotton
Yes, the hats!
I have a crush (posthumous) on Hugh Beaumont!
To: Lil'freeper
Does anyone know a trick for getting pumpkin seeds out of their shells? This is impossible!Give them to the squirrels

Just a lot of endless talking. I notice that our little hangout is accounting for quite a bit of the bandwidth used on FR right now, along with a few other "regular" threads. It's an indication that things are quiet right now, thank God, but I expect "serious business" traffic to start up again in a couple of weeks.
This place is like a friendly pub where the cares of the day can either be forgotten, or shared among friends.

Calling All Dwarves! One dwarf reporting for sporadic duty.
The African Queen is one of my all time favorites....by all means see it if you haven't already...

The African Queen is one of my all time favorites....by all means see it if you haven't already... I don't like the leeches.
To: Overtaxed
Is something wrong, Mr. Olnutt?
To: ksen
I will pray for Tami, and her beautiful family. Hope she is fine. Say hi to All Star.
To: rightwingreligiousfanatic
I still don't like the leeches.
To: Wneighbor
Welcome back!

The African Queen is one of my all time favorites.... Okay, so I know I can't be a conservative and like her, but I thought it was a hoot a few years ago when Whoopi was hosting the Oscars. Elizabeth and Shakespeare in Love were up for Best Picture.
Whoopi came out dressed as Elizabeth I and deadpanned, "I AM the African Queen..."
To: Overtaxed
I don't like leeches like Bette Davis! Ewww, she gives me the creeps.... ;^)

Hehehe...especially with that Baby Jane makeup.
