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.

I weighed 118 lbs when I graduated high school. I don't want to get THAT drastic, but I wouldn't mind getting down to the 165-175 range with a 34 waist.

My wife just says, eat less and move more. She's so smart. ;^)

It's gotta be pretty bad to ruin a shirt.

Well I think we actually dried the shirt before the stain was completely out.

Actually the citrus kind isn't too bad. But it has that taste you get from orange juice that's in a can (know what I mean?). I tried the berry kind once...just once...didn't finish it.

Let's just say it would more than take care of Elrond's problems...

I'd rather have some curves and muscle, despite the numbers that show up on the scale.

I hear ya!

The number don't necessarily reflect what someone looks like, anyway. My lightest weight wasn't my most in-shape weight.

My mom has a diet book by a Dr. with the last name of "Heavin."

I don't think I want to try out his suggestions.

Whats the letters stand for?

Sorry. Thought that was pretty standard around FR.

"From My Cold Dead Hands" (wasn't it Heston that said that first?)

I weighed 118 lbs when I graduated high school.

That was probably third or fourth grade for me...

I think they are standard, I just never knew what they meant and am tired of trying to figure it out.

Sorry if I forgot to ping ya...

Well folkses, I'm off to My Old Kentucky Home, right in the heart of horse country...

I'll be home late Sunday night. Dependin' on how tired I am (or how wired I am from coffee) I may or may not check in. I'll be back fer sure on Monday a.m.

Have a good weekend, and don't even THINK about gettin' to 50,000 before I get back. ;-)
