Tirned Tinnu has just left Hobbiton.
Neferchoirwen, you're not the only one who's dreaming of interdimentional potholes, me too! I often daydream that on a camping trip a nasty band of Orcs might come flying out of nowhere, and oooooffah, I'm the damsel in distress, or the fierce fighter, and all my friends are freaking out....

On a side note, I was recently reading a Stephen Hawking theory on Time Bubbles. He claims that they pop up all the time, it's just that we don't see them. I've thought that perhaps only animals with acute senses of magnetic fields might see them - like cats! Have you ever seen a cat run to a corner, and stare at nothing? People say they are ghosts, but I say they are tiny holes in space-time. The cats are interested, but don't know what to make of them. The problem with these rifts in time is that they are too small and too short-lived to use. Anyway, there's tremendous risk, even if you found one big enough to get into. What if you materialized into solid rock? Or 200 feet above the ground? Or into the middle of the ocean? The chances are greater that you'd be in trouble than if you would arrive safely at your destination. Oh, that to. Where in time and space would you be?! Still it's nice to daydream that we could eventually find ourselves in Hobbiton, a nice mug of ale at our side, lazily puffing smoke rings on a sweet summer afternoon. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
