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.

Should I go ahead and post the minimoot details on the thread?
Maybe there is a Florida lurker out there.

The Florida folk are about to have a Mini-moot, if you had time for some pints and visiting! I hope they will freepmail me about it. Kevin also has my phone number!

Well, for my part, I plan on bringing a disposable camera, at the very least. :)

"Spam of the Dog" is ready for the keywords when she falls into shadow... You'll know she's arrived when she calls me a "witless worm".

Hey DT, what would you think of the possibility of a lowkey Minnesota Minimoot (along with ecurbh) sometime...???
To: RMDupree
Well at least telling LCS the day and locale in Florida would help fill in some of the gaps in the story.... ;~D

Here is the info for you!
This is the link to the movie theatres website followed by the physical address.
MUVICO Paradise 24
15601 Sheridan Street
Davie, FL
(954) 680-0171
As of today, the afternoon show times for The Two Towers are 2:35PM and 3:15PM. Ill be checking constantly for any changes and will let you know if they switch it on us. If by Friday night no changes are made, I think it will be safe to believe that the shows are on the same schedule. Nevertheless, I will check before leaving home on Saturday.
And this is the address of the restaurant across the way. I know it states a different city from the theatre but trust me, they are right across the highway from one another. It must be one of those weird Broward county zone lines.
Cracker Barrel Restaurant
Pembroke Pines, FL
I-75 , Exit# 11
I-75 & Sheridan Street
1960 N W 150th Ave.
Pembroke Pines, FL 33028-2804
Located off I-75
* Bus & RV Parking Available

And here is the link to the menus. Just choose from the list to see breakfast or regular menus.

I look forward to finally meeting you and your families!

I am out of here. May be back later tonight after choir practice.
To: RMDupree
I'm finally back home! I literally just now walked in the door and my phone rang. It was WALMART telling me I'd won a Penzoil large coffee mug from a drawing they had!
LOL
Guess I'll have to go back this evening and pick it up!
I came home with scads of free samples. Practically fed the boys from the sample food items! LOL

Bye Corin!

How cool! *sigh* No Grand Openings for anything decent around here.
There's nowhere left to build.

Should I go ahead and post the minimoot details on the thread? Maybe there is a Florida lurker out there. So if a lurker showed up at the mini-moot would they just have to stand around the group and watch without saying anything?
To: All
I'm going to hop out and beat the traffic. See you all later if I can!
I watched American Idol last night and *whew* there are some really terrible singers out there. The 2nd half is on tonight at 8:30PM. If any of you need a good laugh, put it on.

I was reading FOTR on my break just now and the Hobbits have met Bombadil. I'll finally see what this Tom guy is all about!

LOL! No. I would expect them to notice a bunch of folks calling each other by screen names and otherwise behaving oddly. :)
But just in case - FOR ANY LURKERS OUT THERE - Please FReepmail me if you want to. We plan on meeting for lunch at noon on Saturday.
Thanks Hair, for pointing that out to me. *goofy grin*

I look forward to finally meeting you and your families! Not on this occasion, I'm afraid. This is a 600 mile round trip from Ocala, a bridge too far, I think!
