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.

Good idea! It could be a take-off on MST3K, but with 80's teen flicks!

That's a long trip!

It's not that bad. I'll go to my Mom's tomorrow night after work. That's about 4 hours. Then the campus is about 5 hours from there. I'll drive all the way back on Sunday (about 9-10 hours). But it's all Interstate. Sraight across I-64.

And the rest stops on the West Virginia Turnpike have Starbucks!

Destructor turned me into a newt once...

You're so baaaaad. LOL! I'm now working on my house-elves = overwhelmed taxpayers. The willing slaves who get upset whenever someone does something nice for them (taxcut) and who are only free when someone else gives them handouts....

er, how about a complete sentence...mmmkay?:

I'm now working on my house-elves = overwhelmed taxpayers theory.

Ok, so it isn't a great sentence, but it makes more sense now.

So, should we mail 'em all a sock with their "rebate?"

Yes! That way we won't have to toil away working for ungrateful welfare masters and put food on the leeches' tables! Any word on whether the house-elf revolt is in book 5? (Won't read #5 'till I can borrow it from someone. :P )

Not sure about the house-elf revolt. Jen probably knows.

Someone close to Harry is supposed to die in this book. I'll know more by this time next week. :-)

Wife has a copy reserved at Barnes & Noble. But if they're on the Wal-Mart shelves at midnite Friday, she's going to snaig one.
