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.

but do you suppose people would come in and tell us their symptoms?

Maybe. I haven't thought of anything better yet though.

I vote we let Hair turn out the lights by taking the last post... first and last, it's symmetrical.

It's a Long Way to Tipperary...

You know Bear, I just thought of something. The thing about naming the thread after you would mean that we'd have to have your photo in the graphic at the top of every page. I seem to remember some reference to your love of your own photo being posted all over the place!

Hmm... Homeward Bound?

Journey to the (Grey) Havens?

Few of the chapter titles in ROTK would work, unfortunately.

No, no, you want to invite people in, not scare them away.

The Journey Home?

Um...is Green Dragon still in use, or could we steal that name back?

Or another pub?

unfortunately, I am more of a heathen elf than many of the shire-loving hobbits. I liked the war-like theme.

OK, this thread is "Journey to the Cross-roads". How about we continue that theme with "The Road Goes Ever On"?

She ain't bad at all. Sorry, I'm still way southern. I like to hear her sing.

- what the heck, I'm easy.

Must not comment...must not comment...must not comment...

(although I kinda don't care for the "Battle" title either. Lord knows with an election year we'll be fighting enough other places...)

She writes some good songs, too.

I like "The Grass is Blue" - the album, that is. Don't have her others...but I really like that one.
