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.

Didn't you have one last night?

Only could we marginally call that a date. If a date is someone with whom you might have a romantic relationship in the future then last night was not a date. Because the romantic relationship is in the past and will not resurface.

Argh: Hear me, O Lord!

GOD: ...zzzz...zzzz...zzzz...

Argh: HEAR ME, O LORD!!!

GOD: ...zzz wha? wha?

Argh: Now, see here, Lord-

GOD: Oh, Hell's bells, not you again, you idiotic Argh! Didn't I tell you not to wake Me when I'm sleeping?

Argh: Well, you see, Lord, it's aboot Miss Rosie...

GOD: Who?

Argh: Miss Rosie Cotton, over at Free Republic. I thought You were supposed to know everything.

GOD: Oh, yes, Free Republic, very reasonable folks over there. What would you like for Miss Rosie? And let Me add how grateful I am you're not inflicting your usual whining litany about strokes and cancer and all that stuff you know perfectly well is Satan's fault. Take those complaints to her, she calls herself Hillary Clinton these days-

Argh: I'm sure You're very welcome Lord, but Miss Rosie will be speaking on the phone to a new friend and doesn't want to sound like an idiot. About 7:30 EDT tonight, although she typed EST.

GOD: I'll know when she's speaking, pinhead. I know all, it's part of the deal. I'll see what I can do. Are you finished annoying Me now?

Argh: I wish you'd do something aboot that Satan character.

GOD: Forget it. She's there so you all don't get to thinking that life is a bowl of cherries without Me.

Argh: Sheesh. Say hi to Jesus for me. Later...

GOD: ...zzzz...zzzz...


Well, Miss Rosie, I tried.

Yeah, but Jen, I've got a daughter thats 8 years older than you! And I'm more than twice your age. Could this be why I've had more time to have a date?

Well, there's that, and the fact that you aren't very picky.

I think you're right and Hair's wrong. Just because he makes me kind of twittery does not make a date. Watching the elf on TV makes me twittery too and that is certainly not a date!

I'd have to build up slowly cause the fingers you use to create chords REALLY HURT after a couple of days when you haven't played for a while.

Probably because you got it in a pawn shop.
