The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

[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.

LOL!

[Wneighbor]

Heh... we're settled.... Was just tryin' to give them a 'start'.

Although, ecurbh needs to get used to the notion that wimmin are allowed to change our minds.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

You simply MUST get the last post, Hair. It feels right.

I agree!

[Ramius]

Agreed... though somebody needs to keep a lookout for the dwarves, and trip 'em if they come a'runnin.

[Tribune7]

I'm going for it. Hahahahahahahaha!

[ecurbh]

Envelope please...

[RMDupree]

Obscene and worthy of the "big stick"!!

[Wneighbor]

yes dear. i know this.

[Lil'freeper]

Oh boy. We're getting close!

[ksen]

It would be obscene if I get it.

It would be really, really obscene if Destructor got it. ;^)

‘Walk no more in the shadows, but awake!’ said Aragorn. ‘You are weary. Rest a while, and take food, and be ready when I return.’

‘I will, lord,’ said Faramir. ‘For who would lie idle when the king has returned?’

[Tribune7]

So how come we're still posting? I thought this thing was supposed to implode.

[Lil'freeper]

Not that that fact isn't patently obvious.

[ecurbh]

Drum roll...

[Wneighbor]

but, how would we post the big stick?

[RMDupree]

NO *seriesly*, let Hair get it. It's appropriate.

I sit beside the fire and think
of all that I have seen,
of meadow-flowers and butterflies
in summers that have been;

Of yellow leaves and gossamer
in autumns that there were,
with morning mist and silver sun
and wind upon my hair.

I sit beside the fire and think
of how the world will be
when winter comes without a spring
that I shall ever see.

For still there are so many things
that I have never seen:
in every wood in every spring
there is a different green.

I sit beside the fire and think
of people long ago,
and people who will see a world
that I shall never know.

But all the while I sit and think
of times there were before,
I listen for returning feet
and voices at the door.

[Ramius]

Time to sit back and watch...

[2Jedismom]

Though here at journey’s end I lie in darkness buried deep, beyond all towers strong and high, beyond all mountains steep, above all shadows rides the Sun and Stars for ever dwell: I will not say the Day is done, nor bid the Stars farewell.

My final post on this thread.

Ride! Ride now! Ride to ruin and the world's ending!
