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.

MMMMmmmm that wouldn't be Grama. She was the first person I ever saw break 100 MPH on the speedometer. I believe that was a '62 Bel Aire. We were driving across west Texas and my grandfather was in the back seat (he was a truck driver so she drove a lot of vacations). I watched the speedometer go up and up and up and when we got to 100 I yelled "WOW that's really fast" or something like that. Pepaw almost came over the seat to make her slow down. LOL

Check this out! Half a Billion in Gold found in Iraqi Truck

American troops have seized what appears to be $500 million worth of gold bars from a truck in Iraq, the U.S. military said on Friday. The 2,000 40-pound (18 kg) bars were seized on Thursday at Qaim on the Syrian border in western Iraq by soldiers of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment

My Grama is probably the only family member that just took me car racing and motorcyle riding in stride. She helped fund the race car. The thing I like is that she's never made a big deal either way about these things, it's just normal. I also hate it when people start gushing "oh that's so cool" "oh, it's so neat for a girl to do that." I want to slap them worse than the ones that give me trouble about it. At least I can show up the ones that give me trouble by kicking a** in a race or bike event.
