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.

hehehe... yeah, the good half. Now I get the wheezing, where's-my-teeth, hey-you-kids-get-away-from-that-thing... half. Neat.
To: HairOfTheDog
I was getting toilet-trained in 1985. It's scary to be this old, though!
On the other hand, the most interesting images have been flooding my mind of how a certain someone might look, at 21 as opposed to 17. And wondering how I compare to myself at the same age...

"Don't worry Ramius, only half your life is over...." Captain Ramius is 50?

Do you have any idea where he is, where he went? You have to get some news updates to be fully prepared for this!
To: Sam Cree; Ramius
Ramius will never live to 100 Sam. ;~D
To: JenB
It's scary to be this old, though! Oh bless your heart... Big collective groan from the entire Hobbit Hole!
To: HairOfTheDog
me neither, if I keep going the way I'm going. At 55, I'm actually the oldest living member of my family.

Well, I know he's at a local college. Don't know what he's studying, haven't seen him in years. He probably has a girlfriend, he's handsome and intelligent and polite.... but we used to be very good friends and his mother liked me.
I'm kinda fluttery in the knees at the thought. The guy was about the closest thing to Faramir anyone could expect.

The guy was about the closest thing to Faramir anyone could expect.Whoa. Now that WOULD make me fluttery in the knees!
To: RosieCotton
Yeah. I spent about four years massively in love with him, and a couple more pining over him not being around. Thought I was over it. I... regret not having been, perhaps, more forward, or something.

"By 1985, I'd been eligible to buy them for 9 years..." 16 years for me...am I adding right? or subtracting?

To: RosieCotton
Sigh... think I know what I'll be dreaming about tonight at least. And yes, who knows? I hate being patient! And I hate not knowing what's going to happen to me!
