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 thought we were already hermitized. I still have to deal with people now and again.

Ooh, you may be more right than you know... chess can be very... ah... interesting with the right opponent... sitting across the board staring at each other, hands "accidentally" brushing in midair... the back-and-forth of play...
But the internet kind of eliminates all that, so no worries.

Trouble is, with 300-400 kids, they gotta take every volunteer they can get. Even them S.B.s huh?

I still have to deal with people now and again. I'm sorry. So do I. Much more often than I'd like.

What if we run out of things to say before we get to Implosion? Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then the one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but you're older
And shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desparation in the English way
The time is gone the song is over
thought I'd something more to say
~Pink Floyd....

That's from five-year-old memories, embellished by my so-fertile imagination, by the way, not something recent.

WOW JEN! Really! I think I need a cold shower after just reading that!

So... what have you got against Southern Baptists tonight? Who? Me? nothing. Sackville-Baggins.
No, seriously, earlier we were just having a discussion of cults. In Waco the S. Baptists think our church is a cult. So, I've poked a bit of fun in the last few posts.
sorry ksen, sorry 2J.
