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.

No, I haven't paid them...Lord, it's only going to be about 5 bucks for the two of them! They were supposed to just order them along with their normal order...they were going to be delivered with them.
Sigh...

Do you know if the quiet guy or the talkative guy is in charge? Do you know who the owner or manager is?
To: HairOfTheDog
I dunno Hair. Maybe Helen had the precious a few hundred years before Smeagol found it.
That would 'splain a lot...
To: RMDupree; g'nad
I'm just a selfish Hobbit lass who wants to see PICTURES!!!!Oh yeah, lots of sweet 'new baby' pictures!
To: Wneighbor
Well, like I say...they were just supposed to be ordered along with his regular "stock order" that he put in. I asked if he had any on my initial visit and he said "No." I asked can you order a couple for me on your next order and he said "Sure." and took Steve's phone number. I leave it up to him to figure out how they ship Buff Orpie Pullets along with a bunch of other chicks...but surely other people do the same thing??

[hands on hips, foot tapping] How come she don't get whacked with the stick? This some kind of elfish affirmative action thing?

I'll see you all in a bit. I'm fixin' to go do some more errands and then back to the house. I'm too frustrated to try to mess with these photos anymore. I'm posting them on that york photo page and gonna share the page with that republican lady that wants the photos. That should work as well as emailing the photos --- shouldn't it??/ I think???
To: Wneighbor
I don't know. The older guy is the quiet guy...the guy with the personality is younger. He was so stunningly handsome that I wanted to say so but it wouldn't have been appropriate, I suppose. I left out thinking "Gosh, I hope my boys look that handsome when they are young men!"

I sent him a letter!
RE: that psychotic hobbit, Helen Thomas?
Helen Thomas is most definately not a hobbit of any sort, psychotic or not!
"As for the Hobbits of the Shire, with whom these tales are concerned, in the days of their peace and prosperity they were a merry folk. They dressed in bright colours, being notably fond of yellow and green... Their faces were as a rule good-natured rather than beautiful, broad, bright-eyed, red-cheeked, with mouths apt to laughter, and to eating and drinking. And laugh they did, and eat, and drink, often and heartily, being fond of simple jests at all times, and of six meals a day (when they could get them). They were hospitable and delighted in parties, and in presents, which they gave away freely and eagerly accepted."~ JRR Tolkien, Lord of the Rings, Prologue: Concerning Hobbits
It is possible, that she is a Cave Troll, an Orc, or perhaps a very corrupt Dwarf.
~Otherwise, good article!

They are bred in Cameron Texas... Good GRIEF!!! We are out of sync. I was 30 miles from Cameron Saturday and Sunday. :-( *groaning*

This some kind of elfish affirmative action thing? mmmmmmmmmmaybe...........
*ducking*
To: Corin Stormhands; Wneighbor
How come she don't get whacked with the stick? This some kind of elfish affirmative action thing? Because it was only two posts. A misdemeanor, not overly egregious or extraordinarily shocking to the conscience.... close, but not quite.
To: 2Jedismom
He was so stunningly handsome that I wanted to say so but it wouldn't have been appropriate, I suppose. I left out thinking "Gosh, I hope my boys look that handsome when they are young men!" TOTAL CHANGE OF PLANS 2J. From now on I will be responsible for getting the young guy to get your chickens in..... I will sacrifice!!! Even if I have to dog his steps for the next 3 weeks!!!!
Kimberly, chicken procurer, at your service.
and i ain't talkin' about another trip to central Texas.
To: HairOfTheDog
You should send the article to TORN! This is truly appalling.
