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.

Well, we'll take it as a sign anyway ;-}
To: HairOfTheDog
You were succinct then? Yeah, I think I struck the right balance.
To: Scott from the Left Coast
Being your own boss can be fun, as well as nerve-wracking. If you do it, I would recommend incorporating... there are significant tax advantages to it, especially if you file as a subchapter-S corporation.

Goodnight. I'm showered and clean. I feel like an elf again. I'm going to sleep now.

To: Wneighbor
That is one thing I'm grateful for... my Mom is polite to our faces, at least. What she says behind our backs, I don't worry about.
To: Wneighbor
Oh, good night. Probably going to sign off here as well.
To: Wneighbor
It's still too hot to sleep here...no A/C in this land.
To: Scott from the Left Coast
73 outside.... prolly still 80 inside. Just need to move the air that is out there .... in here.
To: Wneighbor; All
I wouldn't advise these guys start brewin'... the days of the military turnin' a blind eye at fermenters and stills are over...
if they are industrious, they can scrounge everything they need to make some hooch, with the exception of brewer's yeast... and that, is contriband to receive thru the mail over there... for obvious reasons...
I made hooch in SWA... BUT WASN'T WORTH THE RISK...
I wouldn't dream of pullin' a stunt like that in Iraq... they'd get crucified if they got caught...

Everybody get up and clean this place up! We're gonna have company!!I got this from the chaplain this morning!
How does one read postings from the Hobbit Hole. I went to Free Republic and clicked on The Hobbit Hole, but it seemed to be old postings and I never saw any postings (that I recall) from you?
I'm going to give him the link to Hobbit Hole where I posted his letter and I'm going to give him the link to where we are now and explain how to navigate a bit.
Check your emails, contributors...there's more!
To: Bear_in_RoseBear; Wneighbor
...Suggestions for stuff to send to the LCC: pipe tobacco (if it's allowed) and pipe cleaners; decks of cards (several decks); a set of poker chips (or two)... much better idea Bear... good thinkin'...
To: g'nad
Good Morning! Oh goodness, we have a Southern Baptist chaplain coming to visit and we're talking about alcohol?
Oh no!! Ha ha!
To: Corin Stormhands
Reckon there's a good story there? If'n there ain't, he'll just make sumpthin' up...
heh heh heh... got lotsa stories 'bout field hooch...
To: 2Jedismom
hey! I mentioned crucifiction!...
To: g'nad
We were just talking about it yesterday, how great it would be if someone showed up!
To: 2Jedismom; g'nad; All
Guess he won't mind :-)
Cool!
See you guys later, got to go.
Good morning, though, everyone.
To: All
gotta go everyone... Junior will be here at 0800... got s'more land to clear...
I'll tell yuh if'n we have any fun like the last time...
To: Wneighbor
ahhh. I missed out on the seedcake. It came out all right both times and I managed to get the second one fluffier than the first. But since I had to substitute ingredients, I'm not sure how close I came to the "real" recipe.
Good Morning!
