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.

LOL no, I keep trying to copy and the only thing that pastes is that tender mercies line. I keep expecting it to work right but it's stuck. I have to not paste until I reboot again. This computer in my office has done this to me before.

There was no hail with this storm, but it was ferocious. It looks like its petering out right about now though.

...Somebody I know who is out of my league....

oh on. am I gonna have to get a stick of my own?

Hit me all you want.... I scanned the precious-few pictures I have of him...

This was *seriesly* the 3 best years of my life! Flight school, flyin' airplanes, good friends, youth, a good lookin' guy with a dad who had a car worth more than my house. :~D

TP-ing my college dorm room:

More (heh... I got scanner happy, but since 2J is about to post a bunch of pics, I won't slow down the thread with old boyfriend pics)

Naked men in snow? (not really)

Mediocre pic, but a day that is a favorite memory of mine That was a great group of friends.

*sigh* You've brought about a fit of nostalgia on this end of the internet, that's for sure!

He was a cutie, but he's no Elijah Wood, honey. Taste generally improves with age! *wink*

Well, I never *had* Elijah Wood, either... There is minorly out of my league, and then there is playin' in a whole 'nother ball park. ;~D

Seriously, he was bad... in a fun way.... but he dumped me.

That one finally hatched. There are 4 more pipping. I found 1 I hadn't noticed that was pipped at the wrong end, but the chick was dead. We check. Then there was another that was pipped at the correct end but it was dead also. That will leave 4 duds. I hope these other 4 go ahead and hatch. Does your book say anything about helping one even if it's comeing from the right end. How long do give them to hatch on their own?

Steer clear of the "fun, but bad" ones. They break your heart every time.

Don't I know it!
