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 guess they decided to put him there instead.

Uh oh... if PJ screws up Dernhelm's moment of glory, I'm going to be really really... upset.

My s-i-l is not the homeschooling type. Plus in their county, like ours, schools are still pretty conservative.

That's cool. At least she'll be able to be at home when the youngster gets home from school!

And in other good news, we are only 1,368 behind NES. We've gained around 400 posts on them since this morning.

Gandalf was dealing with Denethor and couldn't assist Theoden during the battle...here is what he says as he leaves Denethor

"Now I must go down to meet those who come. I have seen a sight upon the field that is very grievous to my heart, and greater sorrow may yet come to pass. Come with me, Pippin!"

I don't know. Looks like Gandalf is fighting to me...not holding back. The other are fighting too.

So he makes it to help, but too late, maybe?

Well, Finding Nemo is a great kid's movie.

Kid's movie? Heck, I loved it! There were some really FUNNY lines in it! It bothered me during the whole show that I couldn't figure out who was the voice of 'Gill'. It was SO familiar, but I just couldn't place it. Just yelled "ACK" when I saw the credits and it was Willem Dafoe! I just love him, and his voice was great for that part.

Well, I am going for my walk even though it is noon and hot now.

I don't want for the day to slip away and I hadn't done anything but sit here.

I took the kids to the drive-in to see BOTH the 'flushable' and Pirates. It was great on the big screen, but not as sharply focused as in the theater.

But do you attend Tridentine cult masses or Novus Ordo cult masses? ;^)

(I bet you didn't know Baptists knew those words ;^) )

Heh, that's not my impression! But, Gandalf shouldn't be there at all if Theoden is still alive... he should be off dealing with Denethor. What point is there to Dernhelm facing the Witch King if Gandalf is there?

Going to have to wait for the movie I guess!

OK, here's some screencaps. No time to make a pretty page right now. Due to the small size I blew them up a bit. Here are a few gems for your enjoyment:
