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.

Good night, sis! I went to take a bath and put my drops in. I see the doc at 2:15pm tomorrow! I hope he sends me to a ophthamologist if it looks like I need to go...

Too late. Already composed and sent the reply.
We'll see if I still have a job in the morning.
This is one of "those" people that send their complaints to the CEO first, and then the CEO forwards the email, instead of contacting the IT dept with some problem that he has apparently been having for the "last two weeks". It's the first we've heard of it.
I swear... as soon as I come up with a way to send an electric shock to a user via email, I'm gonna have a field day. This networking shit would be really fun if it weren't for all these GD illiterate Ph.D. users. :-)
To: Ramius
Oh hell, I've gone and killed the thread.

Too late. Already composed and sent the reply. Ruh roh.....
To: Ramius
Nope was just up puttering.... But on my way to bed! - Are you still in Bellevue?
To: 2Jedismom
I'm the one with 350 bottles of water during Y2K and I'm currently sitting in a plastic and duct taped room... Funny you should mention that. It was the Y2K posting madness that finally pushed me over the edge and made me stop lurking after a few years and actually register so that I could post my predictions (on 12/30/99) that there was NOTHING about Y2K that would do anyone any harm.
Y2K was a scam, pulled by a handfull of consultants that convinced the whole world that lots and lots of consulting time was just the thing to fix a problem that didn't really exist. God knows... it cost my oompany a fortune.
To: HairOfTheDog
Are you still in Bellevue? Yup. Leaving shortly. I've had more soda-water than is probably healthy. Will wait till I get home to get fully blotto.
To: Ramius
cost my oompany???? hmm... that would be "company".
"ooompany" is the place where oompa-loompa's work. Wait, now that I think about it...
To: Ramius
OK - Careful! - Check in when you get there.
To: Ramius
To: HairOfTheDog
Exactly. Too close to home for words.
I'm outta here. Talk to you tomorrow, unless the remote explosive device works and the FBI manages to trace it to me, in which case I'll talk to you tomorrow from jail.
To: HairOfTheDog
I agree.... and I am glad you have ordered the posters! I am a big fan of doing things you might not ordinarily do!
I am back and very strung out with "Claudette", which is now a hurricane and the weather forcast is NOW saying it could hit with a good punch here in Houston.
So if I start ramblling, please forgive me. "The Weather Channel" can do that to you.
I think what I said in the above referred quote may have come out wrong...I was making fun of myself for, at times, getting into a "religious, conservative snob" frame of mind. Hope I didn't offend.
To: Ramius
OK - I will contact the appropriate number of attorneys... Maybe I should start now.
Good night!
To: mstar
Hope I didn't offend. Oh heavens..... we are more offensive than that! ;~D
I will watch and worry about Claudette with you and all my other Texas friends.... Take care!
To: HairOfTheDog
Thanks. I appreciate that...being more offensive, the watch and worry.
The outer, heavier bands are just beginning to hit Galveston.
Appreciate prayers
To: mstar
Interesting that this is not being covered by the national news! - I am watching MSNBC and have been all evening.... They are on regular talking head shows.
Prayers for the safety of all near the storm....
To: HairOfTheDog
NBC is focusing on making Bush look bad for Iraq. Also as the day went on this was just a trophical storm. It has just gone into a hurricane and hurricanes are unpredicatable. Two of the worst I remember, Alicia and Allison were upon us "suddenly".
Please go on to bed. I am just rather strung out and like I said rambling.
To: mstar
Ramble if you want, funkle if you need to... The thread stays open all night....
Get some sleep yourself though! The storm will wake you if it needs to!
