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.

You should get on the list to recieve Frodo since he is the reason you joined us! Look at the schedule and let ecurbh know if there is a special time you have a trip somewhere planned, or just anytime you want to show him around your hometown.

Well, I have to work this morning. But, I didn't get my care package mailed yesterday so I've got to take it when I get off.

Guess that's my only plan.

To quit, or not to quit. That is the question.

I guess I'll saw trees when I get home. :)

Your plan is more fun than my plan.

Even though it's supposed to be up to 105 again today.

My plan only takes about 10 minutes. Then I do nothing and be depressed for the rest of the day.

The first thing to go is the memory.

I'm 39--that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Now, what was I doing?

I got an email from the chaplain...he is loving getting the quotes and pictures concerning the flags. He told me to let him know if anyone doesn't receive one, in case of oversight, and to get their address to him.

Nine have already received theirs (of eighteen.) If you are getting this ping, I haven't heard from you yet about. Keep me posted!

Where is everybody this morning? Did the time change? Am I here at an incredibly early hour and just don't know it?

I'm drinking mine too! The boys are still asleep. Matthew came in last night while I was still up and said "I can't go to sleep, Joshua is snoring." So I told him "Why don't you go in and play on the computer then...that's what you wanted to do, isn't it?" and he said "Because I'm tired!"

A breakthrough!!

Where is everybody this morning?

I am here. Just busy.

Heh heh heh...I realized this morning that I'm highly likely NOT to get the job offer. At least not if the guy I interviewed with reads my portfolio.

Like I said, the politics didn't seem to be a problem. But I remembered this a.m. that one of my writing samples is a hit piece I wrote about Al Gore and the RATS in 2000 called "The Truth About Hate Crimes." It started with the booing of the boy scouts at the RAT convention and went from there. I use it 'cause it got featured on World Net Daily. Don't be that impressed, Jr. played baseball with the sons of their (then) PR director. But it was pretty blunt.

We'll see if he gets that far or if he stops at the one on "Halloween Safety." Could be interesting...
