The Hobbit Hole VIII - Still round the corner we may meet...

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Still round the corner we may meet...

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

I figured. Sigh. You're doing horrible things to my board-game mental imagery. If I end up in a psych ward, you'd better at least send flowers.

Nice to see you posting here again!

It's nice to be posting back in here again. ;^)

I'll be around more next week. I'm pretty straight out at work this week with trying to get our invoices out.

They used kids from the audience to shoot free throws??

Yeah, it was at a high school gym and the kids were all out on the court playing before the game and during halftime, too. After a couple fouls Donald Driver came up with the idea of letting one of the kids shoot his free throw, and after that they started fouling each other on purpose to give the kids a chance to shoot. They'd pick the tiniest kids, and they'd let the kid shoot until he/she make it, or if he couldn't make it the Packers would finally help. They'd pick the kids up and help them dunk it and stuff like that. After a while whenever there was a foul there were like 50 kids who'd run out on the court raising their hands :)

Basketball has halftime?

Yeah, it's divided into quarters like football with a halftime after the second quarter. Only they extended the halftime in this case because there were so many people who wanted autographs :)

But, there was no comma in that sentence...

Out of curiosity, and to settle a family dispute: are 'Boromir-doll pin-cushions' funny, sick, or both?
