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 think you are gonna have to drive up there and check it out. Freeper on the scene.
To: HairOfTheDog
black?? Shouldn't outta be black.
To: RMDupree
Hi Rutheeeee... howya doin?
To: Ramius
Good fires not black. Black is smoke from something people made.

I am not the person on the news right now talking about Luna the killer whale, btw...
To: HairOfTheDog
OK... I need to axe the hobbit hole a question:
Should I get a Segway? Yes... it's geeky. But I'm a geek and I figure that makes it OK. What think?
To: HairOfTheDog
A "good" fire being defined as *what* exactly?
To: Ramius
HA! - Where would you ride it? - from your apt to work?
To: HairOfTheDog
Yes!
It's about 3 mi. Maybe 20 mins on a segway, vs 10 mins in the car (with traffic).
To: Ramius
good fire=one where there isn't black smoke...
And if you are lucky, there is a guy with a guitar
To: HairOfTheDog
Do I know those people?
To: Ramius
To: Ramius
Heh - no
To: HairOfTheDog
Exactly...
Funny thing is... the original design for the segway WAS a single wheel with the feet on either side. It turned out though that the two wheel design was far easier to control without much practice.
To: Ramius
Did you rent the apartment today?
To: HairOfTheDog
Wooohooo!! It's my weekend!!
To: HairOfTheDog; Ramius
Just talked to my mom in Tacoma...she heard on the news that there was a fire at Ft. Lewis.
My response was: "Yeah, I guess!"
To: HairOfTheDog
Yeah, that's exactly what it looked like.
To: HairOfTheDog
Did you rent the apartment today? Yep.
To: Ramius
Should I get a Segway?So, what do you do when it rains?
To: Scott from the Left Coast
Dang. Must be *some* fire.
