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.

...'cause I had to mail all my money to ksen. ;-)

Of course, I could also be a convenient excuse - "You want WHAT!? Sorry, all of my money is in Florida."

This was at "Things Remembered", a big chain.

"Things Remember" is usually way overpriced. Can you find an "independent" and then tell 'em the story? They might give you a break.

Or we could put a song and dance number together and go on that TV show to see if we can win the prize money to pay for the engraving.

(bonus points to the first one to name the pop culture reference)

Cept, I want mine on a nice quiet lake (no powerboats or jet-skis)!

That would work too. We used to think beach, I think the Rivah or a lake would be better.

Nope, not the sound of music. But I don't think I could give another hint without givin' it away completely...

But they practiced in their garage...
