The Hobbit Hole X - That none have seen but we alone.
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...That none have seen but we alone.

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!

Okay, this is Ramius department not mine. He can tell me what he needs to know and I'll let him know if mine will work. I dunno what kind of internet card I have. Will have to figure that out. LOL

On second look at that post - I wasn't sure if I understood it right the first time anyway. He'll let us know.

I think we'd use Ramius's laptop computer for the cam.... because we can test it ahead of time. Just might be good to have other internet computers for people.... We'd have dad's, but then... we'd have my dad worryin' about people on his machine.

Hi, Bear.

Am reading "Stars My Destination" at the moment, aka Tiger Tiger. I'm assuming you've read it, Bear?

Oh yes, it's one of my favorites! I remember the first time I read it, I was constantly being surprised by the plot twists and turns.

tell him he should do it fer cost... screw him if'n he wants to advertise at our cost... if'n he wants to put his logo on it, he should do it fer free...

Basically, that's what I told him when I asked for the price with/without the logo. I just didn't use dwarf-talk to make my point. Still waiting to hear back.

$4 WITHOUT his logo would be a good deal if he can get the process right.

Hi Sam!

I'm currently on a Ben Bova binge. I'm reading "The Precipice" now which is the first in his "Asteroid Wars" series.

Then I have "Triumph" lined up next which is an alternative history Bova wrote about "what if Churchill had had Stalin assassinated."

Oh! I know! Hook the computer up to a projector and then you can project what's going on in the chatroom to a screen placed over the minister's head so you don't miss anything. ;^)

If'n you'd just get married in a Pentecostal church, we'd already have the hookups and screens.

Hi, Kevin, nice to see you.

I recently read the exiles trilogy, the 3rd was the best, very good, it kind of made the other 2 work.
