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.

Woohoo! 21 of 25 on James Bond trivia. I used to be a big Bond fanatic when I was younger.

Why is it that I suspect that Corin might have spent his entire retirement fund in fines before reaching the 6th Grade?
As for me, if that sugar substitute stuff is in anything near me, I'm heading for bankruptcy in one loud evening.

15 of 25 on Middle-Earth. I got that same number of stanzas question. A bit too trivial, if you ask me.

This one is interesting.... and is not much of a horse question, but a good military question:
#5: If a statue in a park (in the United States) is of a man on a horse, and the horse has ONE of its front legs in the air, what does it mean?
It means the person volunteered his services in the defense of the United States.
It means the person died of natural causes.
It means the person was a military commander.
It means the person fought in the Revolutionary War.
It means the person died in battle.
It means the person died from wounds received in battle.
Answer: It means the person died from wounds received in battle.

I think I came across that tidbit in Trivial Pursuit or on Jeopardy once. I should start noticing details like that more.

I had heard of Le Petomane, but I enjoyed reading the article... lots of information there.
The Governor in "Blazing Saddles" (played by Mel Brooks) was named William J. LePetomaine, so I think it's a safe bet that Mr. Brooks had heard of him... and his act.
