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.

Well, if I had picked up the phone I would have said "it's too late, he's in bed" and hung up! :~D
When I started the teenage phone talking, Dad got me my own line in my room....

I hope you folks are spending a few minutes thinking about what we can have engraved on our "project" pocket knives. I'm thinking the best thing may be a URL pointing to our military support efforts at www.the-hobbit-hole.net. That would give anybody who gets a knife an immediate location to learn about our efforts. We could then place a reference there to the HH here on FR.
Any other ideas yet? I estimate we have a week, at least, to nail this down.
Thanks.

I am thinking on it.... Hobbit Hole @ FreeRebublic.com or ecurbh's site would work! Anyone who poked around or asked a question would find us if they wanted.

What about a short sentence inspiration (few words) or something about blades even from LoTR and then where to find us?
How much is engraving? - Is it spendy by the letter?

(I can handle the chicken dance after a few adult entertainment beverages).Yep, that's what they all think...
;-)
What gets me is these "Greatest Generation" gals that have not a speck of grey in their hair out there doing it. I never fail to wish I had a video camera, it's like something out of America's Funniest Home Videos.
They do it here every year at Oktoberfest...
sigh.

That's what we're fighting for, and it's a battle worth fighting. And I know it's hard on America. And in some small corner of this vast country, out in Nevada or Idaho or these places I've never been to but always wanted to go--[laughter]--I know out there, there's a guy getting on with his life, perfectly happily, minding his own business, saying to you, the political leaders of this country, "Why me, and why us, and why America?" And the only answer is because destiny put you in this place in history, in this moment in time, and the task is yours to do. ~Tony Blair... speech before congress this last weekI would suggest this... they rearranged it to avoid an obvious copy job, but that is Sam's speech at Osgoliath!

Heh...I know what I want on my knife: "HHD - Overtaxed".
To: All
Good Morning, everyone! I'm on a "working vacation" here doing painting and cleaning and such.
Me and my big mouth!
To: Overtaxed
Good morning! Why are you on a working vacation?
I got up early!
The boys were able to watch Star Wars last night...had a lot of skips and I had to thunk the player a few times, but it at least played a little!

It's like this....
They want me to move to Kansas. I'd have to sell my house to do that and it's not ready to be listed. I have some repairs to make, painting, 14 years's worth of decluttering to do.
To: Overtaxed
Ahhhh...
So they sent you home to get those things done. Got it.
I wish we could sell our house and get one with some land. We're going to refinance, then build up some equity, then try selling. After seeing those chickens this last Sat at my friend's house, fifty of them, I really want a few more chickens!

Hey, Hair...Washington State had their "Chickenstock" this past weekend. It's like an Entmoot of chicken owners, from the chicken board I frequent.
