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'm the opposite. I have DSL at home and I don't know what here at work. I think we have cable, but it's REALLY slow. I get so frustrated with it. Plus I have an ancient hard drive :-(

It was really the darndest thing! It would play and have a great time and then just flop down and go to sleep! Originally it had climbed up on Matthew's shoulder and fell asleep there, but Matthew scooted it off.

I hope it's there today!! I know I sure went nuts until mine finally came!

Looks like I'm gonna be nuts all weekend, then! I'm home, and there's no install kit here yet. :-( So my phone line is ready, but I can't use it yet!

Cute! (All of you!)

I'm sure he's even cuter in person...black dogs don't photograph as well as some others, in my experience. Harder to see their faces! Keep us updated, OK?

*I beg your pardon*!

Seriously, you are right.... A dog-photographer I talked to at a dog show once told me that shiny black dogs are the hardest to photograph, particularly in strong sun, where they become all highlight and shadow.

He powdered black labs with baby powder to cut their shine so they would photograph better. Just a tip, if it ever comes up!
