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've found actually that this tends to get the wenches all stirred up and yelling a screaming for "police!" or something like that.

Methinks thou must be chasing the feminazi wenches!

Never met a wrench I didn't like.

Any other tools you're particulary fond of? i don't know, screwdrivers?

I can only commit 50% at this time. (Is that a contradiction-in-terms?)

We may be moving this fall, which will certainly shrink my travel budget, but there's hope that things will work out differently.

I hate to sound so half-a$$ed about it, but I just can't say one way or the other at this point.

Wow! Pirates, Casablanca, swashing buckles, I swear it feels like Spring in the Hobbit Hole!

Ammonia and meat tenderizer....no wait! That's for jellyfish stings.

LOL! I know a bunch of remedies, I just can't remember which maladies they fix!
