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.

Is that group REALLY such a threat?

Simply put Rosie, it has boiled down to the fact that EVERY religion, except theirs, is fair game.

It's okay to talk about pediphile priests, but not about a certain prophet who liked 14-year-old girls.

We had one thread pulled that was nothing but congressional testimony but it did not reflect well on that certain religion.

I'll put it this way:

I do not separate my faith and my politics. Both are a vital part of who I am. Let me be clear that my faith will always take priority over my politics, and in fact it's my faith that directs my politics.

As such I am compelled to speak out against evil. And I believe that group is evil.

In my early days over on the forum (before Ward Smythe was martyred) I actually defended these people. But no more. "Open" discourse is allowed only if it portrays the [FR 5th Amendment] group in the best light.

That pisses me off.

FYI - I did exit the thread. A recent post said that the soldier in the picture has been reported as MIA.

To hell with the underoos. God keep our men and women safe.

I know that your faith is important to you Corin, I just don't understand why it is vital to your faith to argue with those people about it. There has to be a better place to practice your faith than beating your head against a wall there. Please consider it is all.

I don't want you to be booted, because I would miss you.

Ah! I'm not getting booted. I may work myself up to a time-out, but I won't get booted. I've heard that you really can't call yourself a FReeper until you've been given a time-out by upper management. ;^)

Hello!

My concert was amazing and I'm not even that tired! However I have a large paper to write and a test next week, so I'm trying not to think about this weekend yet. How're things here?

Corin, did you get banned?

"Male underarm sweat can reduce stress in women..."

Fascinating!

I think Rose and I can attest to this one....

When we watched the Blue Angels at a practice for their shows this past summer, one of them did a pass by the stands and performed that maneuver!!

It's a metabolite of a fungicide.

Know I'm late getting back but does this fungicide work on that stuff that attacks seedlings? Small time agri-question but thought I'd ask. Don't mean to funkle.
