The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

[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 told his wife something like that. Can't remember what exactly. Something about if I wanted to be in confrontation with some guy all the time I'd still be married or something.

[SuziQ]

I have a feeling he may have taken meals at the University dining hall or something?

That's fine for him, but what did his wife and kids do?

[Corin Stormhands]

I did Restart and went back over. Got the same thing, then a message that I had been disconnected. When I said "yes" I would like to be reconnected, nothing happened.

I dunno. I didn't have time to stay anyway, was just gonna say hello.

I'll try again later. I've got to get to work on some other stuff (dinner would be one of those...)

[Wneighbor]

we aren't chat/viewing but we're in chat. I was very late getting things going here.

[JenB]

Well, I'd pop over but if I do I'd be there for an hour and I really need to read something over before bed.

Well, darn. Wish I knew why your computer(s) are allergic to Yahoo! ...

[Corin Stormhands]

SSQ loves Wild Turkey for sippin whiskey!

I'm partial to Virginia Gentleman myself. ;-)

But I seem to be getting into enough trouble without the sippin whiskey.

[Corin Stormhands]

Reckon it's my firewall?

I R ignorant about these things...

[HairOfTheDog]

reboot and try again.... If your Java gets jumbled, that is the only cure.

[Corin Stormhands]

didn't work, I went all the way off this time, not just restart.

I've gotta run anyway. Talk with y'all tomorrow.

[HairOfTheDog]

We saw you for an instant, then you were gone :~(

See ya later....

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Firewall? Well, yes, it could be your firewall, actually. The fact that the problem is happening on the new system points away from it being a software issue, and instead to something in the connection, IMHO. The nature of a firewall is to block intrusive connections, so it may be doing something to thwart the Yahoo chat client.

[Wneighbor]

Something is very wrong here on the slag heaps. I got hosed from chat. Chat says I'm not allowed back in. FR is verryyy verrryyyyyyyy sssslllooooowwwww.. I think I must have been too friendly with Corin. I'm booted.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Well, pretty much everyone else is gone, except for Hair, and she's not talking.

Have you tried rebooting and redialing?

[Wneighbor]

Just did both. this is really slow. Will try to go to chat now.

[Sam Cree]

Oh sure, I'll take it, Wneighbor, thanks, you are a nice lady.

Just got in from painting class.

[Wneighbor]

Well, again, I get an error report in chat. I rebooted again to no avail. I think it's bedtime. I've been up far too late the last 2 nights moving furniture.

OT and Sam the ribeye's were perfect. Hope they were good for you too.

[Sam Cree]

I think his kids were grown by then and his wife probably ate with him?

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Well, it was getting pretty late anyway. Going to bed here, good night all!

[Sam Cree]

Sure, they were very good!
