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.

Doesn't hair have a date this week, too? Should we post that in big red letters somewhere? I didn't hear the details...

Thank you Rosie. I will graciously bow out now and allow Hair to fill in the details of that one.

Notice that the dimocRAT posturing in Texas is now not being covered as well.

When they absconded there was all kinds of coverage to garner support. Now that they're talking about it again, when the voters should be being made aware of their plans so we can STOP THEM - no news reports are being made at all.

Watching MSNBC too.... I just like them better. Except now when they break away for the apparent basketball player. Great.... I know its news, but stay on one thing at a time eh?

The family did ask that they not show her getting out of the chopper because it may be ungraceful. I expect they will try to be discreet.

Well, it is a heck of a news day.... now four major breaking stories, Eiffel tower is on fire, Jessica comes home, BB player probably found in Waco, Uday and whatshisname probably killed.... Your legislature having a tantrum just had to go I guess!

The media is so overloaded they don't apparently know what to cover.

Sheesh! In a totally non-related non-news story. I just got a document fax from one of our divisions. It was illegible (and the problem was on their end). Office manager called and asked "can you just have her email it?"

Supervisor there said "but then she'd have to type it..."

I am NOT making this up...

OK, Miss Hair, which one of the dwarves around here has been acting up, if you'll pardon the awful pun? He or she is to be congratulated!

Yes, but to paraphrase my favorite cultural experience movie, in regards to those fools my fellow supposed Texians have elected, "I’m losin’ my wonderful diposition, …. We’ll get the blame….. Hell let’s go to Austin."

I think that might be becoming an increasingly good idea.

I love it that the guy included Sean Penn in his insult...when he said "and your whole family", he knew who he was insulting.

I'd like to send the guy a thank you note!

I don't know about the Senate... but Bob has had a relapse thanks to the serial-killing doctor Rick, and Katy is pining for her lost husband Simon... meanwhile, I'm anxiously waiting to see if Cassie gets pulled off the roof of her hotel by the suicidal killer husband, or if she is saved by the District Attorney who is the double of her dead husband!

So, on what network would I have to be to watch the rescue of Cassie?
