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.

Bacon? Naw... got this pouch full o' venison jerky. Home made with habenero peppers.

The growler I've got holds two pints of a full bodied stout with just a hint of the German hopps still in it. A 60watt bulb can't be seen through a pilsner glass full of it.

I've read everything of JRR's. Everything I could get my hands on at least. I have yet to take a Quenya course at the local community college though...

Wasn't CGEB revealed to be a guy later on down the road?

For those interested in this subject, please freepmail me for my full length set of emails about it. Excessive discussion of this subject on the forum gets the entire thread pulled.

This thread is too long to get it yanked for violating Forum Rules, especially as a result of this silly subject.

Depends on what you meand by "one of". I've never actually been to any of the CenTex Freeper events. I do, however, reside in Austin and I am a Freeper. ;-)

Now that I'm here.... I don't have to go back and re-read all 35000 posts do I? :-/

Actually this is the THIRD Hobbit Hole thread, grand total approaching 100,000 posts.

Yes, you have to read thru them all before commenting!

YESSSS That fits much better than orc!

Welcome, I believe you are our first wight.... although we know of others in FR not nearly as wholesome or friendly.

I am just visiting, it may take a week or so to get the new machine. Saw the thread, and the ending part, but haven't read the early part.

Yep, I went and read the lead in article for this incarnation. Being at least partially an anarchist, I think I'll accept and moral repercussions from ignoring that particular rule. 8^)

Ahhh, I never went to any events myself. I did meet other Austin Freepers BearinRoseBear and RoseinRoseBear a few months ago. And I inadvertanly met RoseD and 2 others that I forgot their names now when I was hot-headed enough to take off to Ardmore last week.

I just asked that Austin Freepers be pinged over the young lady in Ardmore being invited to the Capital for the day. It would be nice to include a Freeper welcome IMO. If it happens on a day when I'm not working I might just make the trip myself.

LOL And you Lucius need to get your computer in order so that you don't have to go to the library to visit us!

Someone talk to me! I need the Elvira pics further down on my "My Comments" page! I'm tired of looking at ta-tas...

They're out there!!! Be watchful. Keep it secret, keep it safe.

Fortunately for you we have no Bombadil here.

Venison jerky? A dark stout? Read everything written by Tolkien? Knows what a Barrow wight is?

You're perfectly and normally nuts, my fine sir. Welcome to the Hobbit Hole!
