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.

Sheesh! And why exactly do 8th graders need to dance?

Are you kidding. These idiots do elementary school dances (we don't). Jrs. been going to MS dances since 6th grade. But apparent this is "the" dance.

And those kids - what about commitments?

My thoughts exactly. We struggled over the youth choir issue (since the concert was that night). But we would never have given a second thought to a dance.

Does he have anything to wear to the dance?

Oh, probably not. He just has to wear a tie, which I can loan him. But I don't think he has anything to go with it. That could be embarrassing!

Sigh... the English got over-civilized, Corin, and aren't used to Dwarves the way we rough-and-tumble Americans are. That's why one doesn't see a whole lot going on in England these days.

Sorry, but you know that's my cultural background too. It's like an entire country full of Elves.

Oh, deah... I don't know how people are going to react to Gollum's acceptance "speech". I laughed, but not everyone has my warped sense of humor...

Sheesh. I wouldn't move there - it's a country full of liberal Elves - but it would be nice to visit.

What country would Dwarves be? Australia?

Better go shopping tomorrow! Just be glad he's not a girl. That would cost a lot more!

Yes. Would love to visit England as well as Scotland. I've got some ancestors who came from (or at least thru) there as well.

The wife is working. Perhaps we'll have her see what Wal-Mart has when she gets off tonite. If not, she'll take him tomorrow.

The naughty words were bleeped, but one could easily tell what they were.

Gestures were made too, heh heh...

I have a "Cat in the Hat" tie. My others are probably too conservative.

No doubt Saxon invaders who pillaged and plundered from the native Celts :)

Good night, all. See you tomorrow, which is Friday. So be happy!

Well, actually my Huguenot ancestors came to Virginia by way of England...but good point about the invaders.
