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.

Interestingly there are some parallels between Dwight Eisenhower and Colin Powell, IMO. Both guys had real ability in getting other people to get along. So, I think you're right, it's good to have him there now.

You are right it is working now! Say, was there a thread on today's White House press conference?
To: All
YEEEEEOOOWWWW! MY EARS!!
I flipped on my little TV to see if the news was still on and it was a commercial on the local Fox channel...so I flipped it to NBC and Kenny G was playing on "The Other Half". Hasn't he been deported yet?
