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 will be the first to predict: Thread Implosion by Thursday, August 14, 2:00 pm Central time.

That's my birthday!

I wonder if I'll get a ring as a birthday present?

After what you said to ksen, you would cheat on us with another thread?

It would pain me, but it would pain me more to watch you fall into depravity! It is better to never find out than it is to forgive.

Did you know Bob Hope was a naturalized citizen?

Actually, yes I did know that.

Before I got married, I used to file away information like that in the event that I would develop an online Trivial Pursuit relationship...

It may happen before the 14th! Especially if there's lots of spam... But no later than the 14th, I think....

So is this how the thread dies?

The spammers feel canned.

We have lost Hope.

I really don't know when it is appropriate to move from backgammon to Trivial Pursuit. I too, am new at this!

The important question is... when is naked Twister allowed?

Oh, I probably shouldn't have said that.

The Big Bad Idea has already started.

LOL! Is that gonna be like "The Big Dig" in Boston? It has gone on for 10 yrs. or so, and has another few to go. The best thing I've seen come out of it is that I can avoid the Expressway on the way to the airport. Once I get on the Mass Pike now, I can go straight into the Ted Williams Tunnel and end up at Logan!

Not sure what this is, but the light is gorgeous!

Isn't that Goldberry?

It works! We did it last weekend! Poured the mix into the small can, taped it up with duct tape (I have plenty) and stuck it in a large can. Packed around the can with ice and salt and commenced rolling it around the livingroom!

I hear liquid nitrogen ice cream is all the rage right now. You make it just like regular ice cream, but then pour in a quart of liquid nitrogen to freeze it instantly. You can find liquid nitrogen in the cryogenics case at your local store.
