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.

What's with that anyhow? Howcome ya'll let a S-B teach in your Bible school?

I don't have the full story I'm sure. The age groups are divided up into teams that travel to the different stations...story, play, crafts, snack...etc. Apparently the older woman leading Luke's group said she couldn't handle him.

I ain't denying he's a handful. He keeps me running. He's full of energy, talks non-stop and (if I do say so myself) is very smart. But he's not intentionally mis-behaving. He's just very active. A firm hand (or voice) is what he needs.

And the wife pointed out to the VBS director that during the year she takes him to Community Bible Study and he does just fine. But with our rehearsal schedules, he's at our church a lot and is used to playing more.

I was gonna read someone the riot act if they didn't just put him in a different group, cause he'd have to go to the nursery. But the VBS director took care of it for us.

Pacing! We need to pace ourselves...

What if we run out of things to say before we get to Implosion?

I have snuck out of more secure parental controls than that.

When in the same house, I have yet to be snuck out on. Course, that was work. And loss of sleep.

No Valinor for you!

Okay. The place is lousy with elves anyway. But then again, you could always get a good cookie there.

But the VBS director took care of it for us.

I'm glad to hear that.

Next step, you need to talk to somebody in charge and tell 'em you'll have no more Southern Baptist - er - I mean Sackville-Baggins volunteers in your school.

Boring!

There's plenty of squirrels there for target shootin' and doing the subsitence farming thing will keep me too busy to be bored.

Trouble is, with 300-400 kids, they gotta take every volunteer they can get.

This is what you'll find in Valinor, a bunch of uptight elves...

And there was a discussion of Miranda's podiatrical appendages as well.
