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.

I just burned the heck out of my first three fingers cooking. I knew I should never cook!

Typing one-handed with my hand in icewater...

Ouch! What on earth were you cooking?

At least I know how to cook. I can't clean or sew or run a home, but I can cook and I can shop smart, so I'll make a fine bachelor. And if I ever get my mrs, maybe I'll learn those other things.

But not sewing. I don't like needles. And it's boring, like what old ladies with no lives do.

Yes, she didn't look too certain of what to do with Frodo... oh, and I liked the barbecue fork tucked into your bundle on her back!

Bay in the background looking like he wants to be a part of the action made me laugh too... :)

Ouch, that's no fun! But, icewater is good for it.

So, uh, are Corin and ksen still here? Or have they been banned yet for forecasting the weather?

Yes, and that was after I got her accustomed to him... was a while before I could soothe her to the point where I could set him up to take pictures!

Hmm. Dwarves are afraid of hobbits?

If I ever get near a digital camera, I'm going to take a picture of me in my Easter dress from last year, standing next to my giant Aragorn poster-o-hotness.

I can type short messages... one thought.... then I have to stick my fingers back in the ice! No flame wars for me!

I recommend this cure for Corin and ksen!

For dwarves, read ponies. Apparently the IRS has taxed too many brain cells this year. I demand a recount! Er, refund.

I am so unfamiliar with horse behavior that they seem odd to me. A dog, now, I can pretty much predict how a dog would have reacted to Frodo, if the dog reacted to him at all. It wouldn't have been a very dignified way for Frodo to start his journey, though!!

HOD: great idea and a wonderful beginning. I'll try to set up a rendevous with G'nad when he makes the trek to the Show-Me state.
