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.

Do you have any interest in going to see a fight at the emerald queen this weekend? Seems the world lightweight championship is being held there and there's still some good ringside seats available. The contender is the son in law of the guy that is doing the fishing boat thing.

I've never been to a live fight. Might be a twisted sort of fun, maybe???

it's a pretty cheap way to take an 8-day cruise down through the inside passage. It would just plain rock.

I hope you do it! - That would be fun!

You must have the same designer that I wear...

"WHO are you wearing tonight darling?" (Joan & Missy, '"Live ON The Red Carpet")

"Second Hand Shop from his 2002 Line"

"Fabulous darling.."

"Old Hippie", by the Bellamy Brothers

He turned thirty-five last Sunday
In his hair he found some gray
But he still ain't changed his lifestyle
He likes it better the old way
So he grows a little garden in the back yard by the fence
He's consuming what he's growing, nowadays in self defense
He gets out there in the twilight zone
sometimes, when it just don't make no sense

He gets off on country music
'cause disco left him cold
He's got young friends into new wave
but he's just too friggin' old
And he dreams at night of Woodstock
and the day John Lennon died
how the music made him happy
and the silence made him cry
Yeah, he thinks of John sometimes
and he has to wonder why

== Chorus ==

He's an old hippie
and he don't know what to do
should hang on to the old
should he grab on to the new
he's an old hippie
his new life is just a bust
he ain't trying to change nobody
he just trying real hard to adjust

He was sure back in the sixties
that everyone was hip
Then they sent him off to Vietnam
on his senior trip
And they forced him to become a man
while he was still a boy
and in each wave of tragedy
he waited for the joy
Now this world may change around him
but he just can't change nomore

== Repeat Chorus ==

Well he stays away a lot now
from the parties and the clubs
And he's thinking while he's joggin' 'round
Sure is glad he quit the hard drugs
Cause him and his kind get more endangered everyday
And pretty soon the species
will just up and fade away
Like the smoke from that torpedo
just up and fade away

== Repeat Chorus and end ==

Okay, the first half of that statement is very UN-pirate-like. The second half is the inner pirate TRYING to get out.
