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.

Thanks for the "ping" concerning the post from one of our "dudes" in Iraq. I have copied it to pass around.
To: 300winmag
I stand corrected! You're right of course.

Wasn't that a great post? My son-in-law alludes to some of those things but that was written very well and very descriptively I thought. I enjoyed it.

To: Wneighbor
Me too. Most do not have a clue what's going on over there. Hubby and I have been so angery at the Lib's "sock-puppet press" we haven't turned on the TV for more than 10 min. at a time, for about a month or so. Highly unusual since my husband is a "news junky". I just told him the good news about Sodamninsane's two-Days no longer being a part of this present darkness. He got so excited, he turned it on. So we are back to "THIS IS A FOX NEWS BREAKING STORY". Was that how it went? It's been a while.

I think I want to start a campaign to convince Americans to take to the streets and celebrate!Jay Severin, a libertarian/conservative talk show host out of Boston just came back from the commercial break and opened the show singing "Ding Dong, Husseins are dead"!! It was hilarious!
To: SuziQ
a good laugh...much needed.
To: SuziQ
I was listening to the news on the way home and can you believe it, that was not their top story? No, it was third on the list, after Jessica Lynch's homecoming and the location of a Powerball winner from last week.
How strange! Oh well. Um. Is it Friday yet?

Really sorry about this..I'm sure you didn't need this along with the Tulsa heat. Prayers going up.
To: ecurbh
Ah. So that was the secret handshake! I had tried before myself and got the dreaded red x in the box!
To: mstar
I could be a news junkie. If not for today's press. I love Fox News. But, don't have it here. Therefore, I seldom watch TV news either. Today has been quiet and with the news on Saddam's boys I turned it on. And now, I'm shaking my head. Weather was just on. Our high today was 106. Yesterday it was 105. So, howcome that guy said we're cooler because of the cool front coming through? Does he KNOW how stupid that sounds?

Oh dear....
I am back from town.... - Is it OK if I just ask for sympathy without saying too much as to why?
I have had a really hard day. I am OK, nobody died, I wasn't fired, but I had to go to the doctor and get probed pretty thoroughly.
You'd think if the doctor was gonna get to know me that well, he'd at least buy me dinner. Instead, I paid him....
~questionable language warning~
Unrelated South Park quote that makes me laugh (listen) I think I am OK now.

Yikes... unfortunately, I think I know what you mean. Down in Astoria we always used to bitch about the one same Doc that always seemed to do the physicals. He was the one with the really long fingers and unusually large knuckles. [shudder]
To: Ramius
Heh..... Thanks. Actually my doctor was cuter than I would rather he be.
To: HairOfTheDog
Yikes. Well you have my sympathy.
