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.

To tell you the truth, I prefer our birthday customs over the Hobbits'. :) I know it's better to give than to receive... but receiving can be a lot more fun. ;)

I'll probably bring you some when I come. It's too much feed. I did manage to get it all in the fridge out there (it's where I keep my popcorn, I buy it 50lbs at a time too...)

Oh, no...I got it at Atwoods in BA because I was just right there. Our church isn't far from there.

Yeah...but I have eight brothers and sisters and plenty of friends. If I went to every party and got something at each one...I'd be receiving a lot!

You have to burn trolls with fire to keep them from regenerating.

Ah, that's good to know.

(Except...I have no connections with Gondor!)

EVERYONE is in some way connected with Gondor. ;^)

And, I don't think he would have been very interested in the Internet, either.

Oh, I dunno. Certainly there's a lot of non-sense on the web. But chat rooms and threads like ours are roughly the equivalent of the pubs of Tolkien's day. ('cept you couldn't go to a pub in your underdrawers...)

Define "couldn't".

But yeah, I catch your meaning...

"couldn't" does not necessarily mean "haven't"...

For the record, I was stuck in a 2.5 hour bored meeting on ballistics. Interesting stuff 'cept it was freezing and I had to go to the ladies room.

Well...I was also thinking of the fact that technically you COULD go to a pub like that...but it probably wouldn't be a good idea.
