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.

So Jr. sorta snapped at me at the end of the second service at 12:30. And it wasn't really bad. But since he'd been there for five hours with nothing to eat, I couldn't blame him.

I agree. I would count that a very good day as well. He is doing very well to get through all that and especially when not getting a probably expected snack!

He was looking for breakfast. He'd been up since 6:30 and hadn't eaten at all. They usually do better than that. I'm sure it just fell through the cracks and was nothing intentional.

I was feeling palindromic!

How many posts were we up to before we moved last time? I'm betting we run out of thread before ROTK.

What do you say Hair? Have you talked this over with the realtor?

There are plenty of other "fancy numbers" out there yet. "43210", etc. Maybe we can play "Hobbit Hole Poker" with our message numbers. Can't get a game of darts worth a darn going here.

Cool idea!

Although, you'd think Hobbits would be good at darts....

I think should start the new thread at 60,000, whenever that is!

May I ask what your Quidditch problem is?

Nothing really, I was attempting, pretty lamely it seems, to make a joke. ;^)

Have fun! I'm off to the beauty shop before too much longer and then to the doctor's. Fun Fun Fun. Have to brush up on my small-talk skills. ;)
