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.

Does one wish someone "break a leg" for a presentation????

Oh well, I hope it went well.

I know y'all think me so flighty, popping in the way I do. But got real curious to know the progress of Flat Frodo. Ist that on ecurbh's site?

Am trying to talk the Pippin group into doing the same with Flat Pippin. Right now we are negotiating T-shirts, and one wants to send hers around to be signed by teh lot of us.

Hair, am I still on for November?

Ruthy: I think any voice raised in praise and thanksgiving to God, be it loud or tiny, is a GOOD thing. I like to think the angels I ask to pray with me are doing the shouting for me, because they are closer to Him than I am. I always ask them to add their voices to mine when I thank and praise God...and I know they will do it.

Wneighbor: you have such a big heart! I cannot tell you how good it made me feel to get your FReepmail!

sending warm wishes all around...

Alkhin aka Rothy

This is LSAggie-Osagebowman's wife posting for him. At 10:28 a.m., he and his two friends from California pulled out of the driveway on their way to MoJam V after a hearty breakfast of bacon, eggs, english muffins (with honey and/or cherry jam), bowls of mixed melon fruit, orange juice and a couple of gallons of coffee.

Three happier guys you could not hope to see; the truck was loaded with bows, half-made bows, bow staves, tools, sleeping bags, snacks and an coooler.

Osage is really looking forward to his mini-moot with g'nad tomorrow; I'll keep you posted on his progress.

Do take one deep breath and think hard before you commit to unemployment.

It's pure, undiluted hell in these waters.

I'm thinking that with all this loss in my life in the last few weeks that I might need to start a refuge for destitute Hobbit Hole Dwellers. I mean, I got a 3 bedroom house. The resident of one bedroom died. The resident of the other bedroom moved to another continent and wants nothing to do with me. If ya'll get desperate, you can take your chances.........

Whoa!!! Isn't that way cool? I can't wait for you to go home and open it too.

So, if Frodo with you at work today? Are you takin' him somewhere tonight? I think he'd probably like some nice fresh homemade tortillas and maybe some good salsa.
