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.

I'd believe you. Don't think muh boss lady would.
To: HairOfTheDog

Make it so.

I am not going to survive being the parent of a teenager. I have been trying to call home for an hour and 15 minutes...
To: Corin Stormhands
Do you have call waiting? If not, have you considered getting it, if you can?
To: Lil'freeper
I hate having no real power....
To: Corin Stormhands
Get him his own phone.... That is what my dad did. :~D
To: HairOfTheDog
I hate having no real power.... Me, too. Wish my critics would realize that. ;)
To: Bear_in_RoseBear; HairOfTheDog
Do you have call waiting? No, we don't have it. But, even tho I hate it, we may be heading there. We have a second line for a fax also that we usually just use for outgoing faxes. That's a possibility.
This is a relatively new phenomenon. We didn't see it coming.
Hair, I'm not sure I want to get him his own phone yet. I don't want to encourage this...
To: Corin Stormhands
Hair, I'm not sure I want to get him his own phone yet. I don't want to encourage this... Why not? Really, IMHO, it is pretty harmless, for the most part, for him to spend hours talking... For a guy, it is a pretty valuable thing for talking to be something he is good at.... I don't mean that to be a slam on guys, but I remember 14 year old guys, and the ones that could to more that grunt at a girl were nice to have around!
And, the time he spends at home talking on the phone is time he is spending at home and not elsewhere. He will want to talk to these girls whether you encourage it or not.... so - I would embrace it - get him his own phone (without long distance of course) and at least you know where he is!
To: HairOfTheDog
I dunno. I'm still undecided. But as annoying as this is now, I'd be furious if this was happening during the school year.
To: Corin Stormhands
You are right, having a teenager may kill you! ;~D
Aawwwwww dad.
To: Corin Stormhands
How's the dog's constitution today?
To: HairOfTheDog
How's the dog's constitution today? If'n I could get thru on the freakin' phone, I'd find out!
To: Corin Stormhands
Maybe it would help if you had a 14 year old girl call for you.
(Give him the fax line dad!)
To: HairOfTheDog
You know, it's
possible that the phone is off the hook. It also has a feature to put a line on hold.
My wife doesn't have her cell phone on. And I've tried the fax line, 'cause it will ring once before the fax comes thru.
To: Corin Stormhands
Send him an email.... he's probably online reinstalling AIM.
To: HairOfTheDog
Send him an email.... he's probably online reinstalling AIM. LOL!

And Corin didn't think that was funny!
To: Corin Stormhands; HairOfTheDog
Getting ready for another shot?
