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.

Munchkin Land....

Come moot , come moot , wherever you are and moot the young lady,
who fell from a star.

She fell from the sky, she fell very far and Kansas, she says,
is the name of the star.
Kansas, she says, is the name of the star.

She brings you good news. Or haven't you heard?
When she fell out of Kansas...
a moot occurred!

It really was no miracle. What happened was just this:
The wind began to switch - the house to pitch
and suddenly the hinges started to unhitch.
Just then the Witch - to satisfy an itch went flying
on her broomstick, thumbing for a hitch.

And oh, what happened then was rich.
The house began to pitch. The kitchen took a slitch.
It landed on the Wicked Witch in the middle of a ditch,
which was not a healthy situation for the Wicked Witch...
who began to twitch and was reduced to just a stitch
of what was once the Wicked Witch.

Oh heck, I wouldn't ask over this little thing - I seem to be the only person on the board that even thinks this way..... as happens sometimes.

Great news, Ruthie. Sorry about the DVD, but you can always pick one up at a pawn shop. :)

Whatever brand of surge protector you have, its protectin' days are over. If it's a good brand, you might be able to get a free replacement/upgrade. But it can't protect against any kind of surges any more.
