Special Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
YOu know, I just thought...
It won't work.
I'm gonna have about 8 hours of recording on each tape.
I don't know if it is even possible to put 8 hours of video on a disk and even it it was, I prob'ly couldn't afford it.
Oh well...so much for my thinkin' huh? LOL
Roger Corin! Was just a bit of fun!
Let me out of the back room!
Yeah well, that's the way with thinkin'.... ;~D
Sorry. It's a reflex.
I'm going to go nap while I read the paper. See y'all later.
Well, they "rent" the DVDs of the same classes...but you get scads of DVDs and you gotta return them and I think each class costs about a thousand dollars.
Phooey...I'll just record them and alternate the tapes. I woulda liked to have kept the tapes Matthew does for when Joshua gets to 5th grade...but oh well.
My friend Celeste records EVERY class separately onto a different VHS tape...she has PILES of tapes everywhere. She has FIVE VCRs!
I can re-use the same tape for Joshua, since I only have to record one day a week for him. Matthew will require 2 tapes a week to get all his classes.
See, when they broadcast a class, they broadcast a weeks worth of class at a time...so you have to fast forward to your appropriate lesson. I can do it, it's just gonna be a hassle.
So is pokin' fun at ya.
I don't have any idea what I am gonna do next.
Need more coffee...
There's an idea.
Ok...I'm goin' 'fore I get in trouble.
See you later!
As a damn-yankee, I think I may resemble that remark...
Off again. I went to the store for snacks and we're headed downtown for fireworks. Let's hope it doesn't thunderstorm again.
Ben sure gets around, doesn't he? In the closet yesterday and in the stroller today!
Heh. you just lookin fer trouble, ain't ya, son? ;o)
Well, I was told that we didn't shoot fireworks in the South on the Fourth of July for a while because that's the day that Vicksburg fell. We took to shooting them on New Year's Eve. Still do it today, though, in my lifetime, we've always celebrated the Fourth. My Daddy always told me the fireworks were for me cause my birthday was the day before, but we always celebrated it on the Fourth so's we could have homemade ice cream, etc. ;o)
Did I cause trouble again? ;~D
SSQ looked into recording directly onto DVDs from the TV by using a setup where the computer was attached to the TV with a special input device. I'll ask him about it and let you know.
Well, around here, we usually see them in late summer, they're probably migratory, but the silvas and cannas are on their "must stop" list.
We used to see more yellow finches but they don't care for the competition with the other birds. We have been seeing a few blue jays, actually a welcome sight since they got hit so hard by west nile.
Yeah, good one, Corin. And those things make an even more annoying noise than jetskis.
That'd be one of the reasons we'd lock ya in the back room.
It's been rainy and stormy all day. We're debating going to see fireworks. I think wife and I would just as soon not, but we have people that really NEED to get out of the house.
No, but if'n Nana don't get in a better mood, I'll be lookin' to lock her in the back room...damnyankee or no...
