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.

We all came to Casablanca for the water. It was g'nad's idea. He said there was lots of water here.

Suits me. GMTA.

You know, there are Christian allegorical things we can derive from Casablanca.

Are you now refering to chasing wenches as a work break!

If so congratulations. It would seem that the pirate trade is good for you.

Hair; indeed they have, perhaps a cyber preview of the big Moot.

Some years back, our local movie theater (four screen) had one screen that they would show the old movies on. Saw any number of classics on a big screen, including Casablanca, Key Largo, Four Feathers, Robin Hood, and the OK Corral movie with Henry Fonda and Walter Brennan. Pure enjoyment.

Well, I can see that.

I can see Richard Blaine as a man of Gondor but I would have to equate Victor Laslo with Aragorn. Which really leaves Rick way out because he is the top guy of whichever race he is. So, does that mean Rick is an elf? Maybe Rick is the real Elrond. Rick works better as Elrond for me than that Agent.

Our classic theater here still has the pipe organ. It rises out of the orchestra pit on a platform.

In the 40s people used to say "Let's go down to the Byrd and watch Eddie Weaver's organ rise."

(Shelly West)

Well it's Sunday morning
And the sun is shining in my
Eye that is open
And my head is spinning
Was the life of the party
I can't stop grinning
I had too much tequila last night

Jose Cuervo
You are a friend of mine
I like to drink you with
A little salt and lime
Did I kiss all the cowboys
Did I shoot out the lights
Did I dance on the bar
Did I start any fights

Now wait a minute
Things don't look too familiar
Who is the cowboy who's sleeping beside me
Well he's awful cute
But how'd I get his shirt on
I had too much tequila last night

Jose Cuervo
You are a friend of mine
I like to drink you with
A little salt and lime
Did I kiss all the cowboys
Did I shoot out the lights
Did I dance on the bar
Did I start any fights

All those little shooters
How I love to drink them down
Come on bartender lets have another round
Well the music is playing
And my spirits are high
Tomorrow might be painful
But tonight we're going to fly

Jose Cuervo
You are a friend of mine
I like to drink you with
A little salt and lime
Everytime we get together
I sure have a good time
You're my friend, you're the best
Mi amigo (Tequila)

Jose Cuervo
You are a friend of mine
I like to drink you with
A little salt and lime
Did I kiss all the cowboys
Did I shoot out the lights
Did I dance on the bar
Did I start any fights

Jose Cuervo
You are a friend of mine
