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.

You don't remember why he said "It's good to be king?"

I believe the terms "tremendous" and "bodacious" have been used here recently...

The house we moved to had a different color shag carpet in every room...

Yech!

I'm still stuck with wall paper from that time period. Look behind my pets on my profile page. Lovely, isn't it? So far I haven't been able to replace it!

Well the thing was I knew the warranty or guarantees would not cover a dog chewing them up. So I knew it was coming out of this nice doctors business. But hey, that's what the doctor volunteered. I did not ask for anything.

do you wear foot jewelry?

YES!!!

But, I have to take it off when I put on my steel toed boots. Messes up the jewelry.

We've got some of that in the boy's bathroom. The wallpaper that was there. Sort of a cheaper version of a Waverly pattern is the strippable kind. So I told Jr. to start peeling it off so we could paint. What is under it is worse. Big ol' blue and yellow flowers.

No! - I missed the after-show! rats. I thought they seemed like fish out of water at that event, which is good. They are staying nice. They panned to Elijah and Sean immediately after the Gollum thing, and they both had mouths agape (slightly grinning) like, I can't believe they really did that!

How old is your car? How many miles does it have on it? It only takes about 5 years to get 200,000 on it.

I rarely go barefoot outside.

LOL I'm sorry. Must be because it's an elven trait.

I do find that there seems to be a lot more uncomfortable things on the ground now than there were in the early years.

Not in New England! It's a '97, and only has 65,000 on it. It had 27,000 when I bought it in 2000, and the first year I had it I only lived about five miles from where I worked. Now it's more like 12, but still not much.
