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 tried to search real estate transactions, but with no luck. I can't find a searchable database for any of the cities where we think he might be. Couldn't find any online news of births back beyond today.

I'm stumped. And more ideas?

Bad Corin!

How about the one that you think is in the wrong town? - Is it in the wrong part of the state or something? It isn't that common of a name. We could try calling that!

Okay, so one of the guys from "Black Hawk Down" (the real Marine, not the actor) lived upstairs from the g'nads. Anybody remember the names?

No, it's close by, but a larger city. I did try to call and got no answer. I'm assuming that isn't them because it would make more sense (to me, but what do I know) that they would have gone to this city for the birth, not the other.

But I could be wrong. I'll try again in a few minutes to see if I can get an answer.

I am so very happy I met you!

OH!!! Me too! That's such a sweet thing to say and I was gone all day and didn't get it till you were gone. :-( But, I love you too! You'll get that tomorrow. :-)

How else would we have discovered that Gondorians don't wear skivvies? :)

Oh my! I should not have had to leave and go do the lunch thing with the church lady! I missed too much humor!

Ahhhhh. I see you bare the gold ring. Even knowing such cruelty, one foresakes their own heart and the heart of others in the name of the ring.

Ride into the blackness of your soul and your secret is safe. We see your soul... but speak not of it.

Only the strong can resist thy temptation. Rise up above thy shallow pleasures.

Gondor has no choreographers. Gondor needs no choreographers.

Hair and I are in chat. We need spies.

Don't forget to get the passport/travel visa process started early as well! I heard it can take several months.

That part is done. I just have to get the driver's license.

Poor Wneighbor...all of us bossing her around! ;-)

Isn't that what friends are for? ;o)

Yes. Just don't try to make me get out and go all over town being social when I don't want to.
