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.

My best friend when I was little had a couple of these. They had a mother and two kids, which I saw born. One (strangly enough) ended up with the name "Jedi".

They would eat just about anything, though. We had to be careful what we left within their reach.

I dang nearly served Terra up on tacos when she bit Matthew's face...

See that cute little goat up there? I'd have no problem at all BBQing it.

Every time I see these chickens my mouth will water.

The thing that really irked me the most about that whole thing was that guy saying that to Hair.

Oh he's back over there this morning say that ksen and I were the vulgar ones because of what we read into it. ksen handled it well.

Of course, I really can't respond again. The "blow it out your shorts" comment sort of lost me some credibility.

But dang, I liked saying it!

Yeah - What he said could have been interpreted innocently, you know, if your mind wasn't in the gutter! HA!

I had to drink goat milk for awhile when I was a kid and they thought I had a dairy allergy. I didn't.

If we ever get a place with some land, Rose wants to get some mini-horses.

Yah...the friends who had the pygmy goats also had a pair of rabbits...that became a whole pack o' rabbits.

One day all the rabbits disappeared, and in a few days, the freezer was full of chicken. ;-)

There's a big difference in "bend over" and "blow it out your shorts." In my book anyway. One is totally unacceptable in polite company while the other is a way of letting off steam when someone is pushing something you don't care for.
