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.

OK, I'm sorry. I won't do it again.

At least, not that clumsily.

I read integration, too. Didn't notice until you pointed it out.

I guess I don't get high points for reading comprehension, eh?

It's times like these that really depress me when I consider my next job may not allow momentary diversions.

I'm sitting here in just absolute disbelief.

Amazing. Just now, an F16 went flying over the house. Nothing new, but it circled BACK and came down really low over our house. By then the boys and I were out in the yard waving. It flew twice over our house, the second time really low, you could really see it, then went on up north.

Not a helicopter...an F16!

Volcano (Jimmy Buffett - Dedicated to the Hobbit Hole implosion)

Now, I don't know, I don't know where I'm a gonna go
when the volcano blow.
Let me say it now,
I don't know, I don't know where I'm a gonna go
when the volcano blow.

Ground, she movin' under me.
Tidal waves out on the sea.
Sulphur smoke up in the sky.
Pretty soon we learn to fly

Chorus
Let me hear you, now
I don't know, I don't know where I'm a gonna go
when the volcano blow.
Let me hear you now.
I don't know, I don't know where I'm a gonna go
when the volcano blow.

My girl quickly say to me,
"Mon you better watch your feet."
Lava come down soft and hot.
"You better lava me now or lava me not.

Chorus

No time to count what I'm worth,
cause I just left the planet Earth.
Where I go I hope there's rhum.
Not to worry mon soon come.

Chorus

But I don't want to land in New York City,
I don't want to land in Mexico.
I don't want to land on no Three Mile Island;
I don't want to see my skin a-glow.

Don't want to land in Comanche Sky Park,
or in Nashville, Tennessee.
I don't want to land in no San Juan airport or
the Yukon Territory.

Don't want to land no San Diego.
Don't want to land in no Buzzards Bay.
I don't want to land on no Ayatolla.
I got nothin' more to say.

Chorus

The roar was pretty loud and you could see all the "stuff" on the underneath side. My mom said (on AIM just now) that they probably know the coordinates of my house or something.

Thank goodness the boys were with me this time, they missed the last helicopter fly by!

I wish you were here.
