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 do this to a friend...someone who put himself in harm's way to save Middle Earth... to save hobbits, and men, elves, and dwarves.You mean the friend who could have ended the whole Ring thing by chucking Isildur into the Cracks of Doom along with the Ring?
The same friend who sent Haldir (who I respect) off to fight at Helm's Deep while he was busy trying to break up Aragorn and Arwen in the safety of Rivendell?

Is that Corin slapping Elrond?
Ducking and running...

The same friend who sent Haldir (who I respect) off to fight at Helm's Deep while he was busy trying to break up Aragorn and Arwen in the safety of Rivendell?Hmmmm....to have Helm's Deep defeated would have split Aragorn and Arwen up big time. Wonder if Elrond wished Galadriel would mind her own business!

The same friend who sent Haldir (who I respect) off to fight at Helm's Deep while he was busy trying to break up Aragorn and Arwen in the safety of Rivendell? Elrond is elfish for "yenta."
Yenta Elrond. How come all the good men are either married or elves?

I didn't really bash! I just made a snide remark! I'm an innocent bystander! ;-)

To: Dawntreader
I leave for a couple hours and come back to an all out elf bash! Sorry. It's been repressed for so long. :)
To: RosieCotton
I'm an innocent bystander! If'n yer not fer us. Yer agin' us.

Can I just say what a big grin this conversation has brought to my face?
I think we only break out into the ElfBash! mode every 2-6k posts or so.

You do this to a friend...someone who put himself in harm's way to save Middle Earth... to save hobbits, and men, elves, and dwarves. We do this to our true soul brothers. The Brits, Aussies, etc. are truly valiant, and trusted allies. But we have a right to poke fun at British beer, and their ghastly cooking. They, in turn, are encouraged to laugh at our foibles. That's what "family" is all about.
I'm sure there were "Rohan blonde" jokes told by the Gondorians. And "dumb Gondorian" jokes. They might even have been shared among both groups in a friendly brawl in some pub. "Donovan's Reef" has a good example of this, and it is expected from allied warriors.
I will never disparage bagpipes, although I'm still not sold on the concept of kilts.

Just consider this pre Dwarf-Moot festivities.

"Donovan's Reef" has a good example of this That's a great movie.
