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.

You know, I totally missed the question about our pornographic Murals!

The "Labors of Hercules" was covered with big tapestries years ago... That might be where it ended. If they were ever really taken down, I don't know of an update.

The whole capital, with all that marble, suffered terribly in our last earthquake. Perhaps they cracked and will be painted over!

Well, the streak to be a bit crazy is still there...I just channel it into other things now! LOL Like duct taping my computer room and buying 50# bags of popcorn! And red sneakers...and whistles.

that I wish I had your restraint...

It wasn't restraint, it was metabolism... my body apparently processed alcohol more quickly than I could drink it, so it was very difficult for me to get drunk. The two times I actually managed it, I sobered up quickly with no aftereffects. I don't know if it still works that way or not, since I gave up trying it so long ago.

I did other wild and crazy things instead.

I don't ever in my life want to ever smell anything spelled with the letters R U and M again. It just don't agree with me.

Too bad; Schweppes Gingerale and Captain Morgan Spiced Rum is a tasty combo!

What's the name of that cheap red wine? Comes in a jug...like a half gallon or something?

The stuff that is in a bottle with a basket around it? That's Chianti

Chianti is not necessarily cheap.

To say nothing of the cost of fava beans...

Not to mention the cost of liver.
