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.

If'n I recall correctly from my visits, they just get more cloud cover and light rain in Seattle. Not the downpours we've been getting. Right Hair?

Actually, it seems we don't even get nice shady clouds anymore - just hot yellow face.

Morning everyone!

Just so you know, I still have the worst luck of any human being that has ever lived. Yesterday, I got home and discovered that my DVD/VCR player and my computer were fried during the thunderstorm. Now get this, everything was plugged into a surge protector and was off at their individual power sources but they STILL are toast whilst all of the other TVs in the house were on and nothing happened to them!! Grrrrr....

I will not cry. I will not cry. I will not cry.

OK, on with the show here...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CORIN!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUZIQ!

Who has WN's phone number?

She should have been back by now and I am worried about her.

I am an optimist by nature, so I am hoping just my video card is fried and can be replaced. My sister doesn't want to give me much hope since the card is part of the motherboard and it would have to be real luck for the computer to automatically override it. :(

There is NO hope for my VCR/DVD combo thing though. It's gone. Finito. Finished. Kaput. Dead.

My family and I are blessed though because we have a DVD player in the living room that survived, as well as, the other TVs in the house. My sadness stems directly from the fact that chat/views and evening Hobbit Hole posting are gone from my life for now.

We have an older computer that I may be able to beg my sister to cannabalize and piece together a Frankenputer for me. My hard drive should still be OK. *fingers crossed*

Anyway, reading about the pink collie made me smile!!!
