The Hobbit Hole XIV - Hill and Water Under Sky
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Hill and water under sky

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 read a column in Outdoor Life magazine 20+ years ago describing the break-in of a new pickup. Seems two guys were out hunting. One of the guys was kind of a greenhorn, and had a new pickup. The other guy, looked at it for some time, scratched his chin, then asked to borrow the truck owner's 45. He took said 45 and shot a hole throught the tailgate from the inside out, and commented, "There, now it's got some character!".

Back from the movie... "Collateral" was pretty good! Rose and I both enjoyed it.

Hi Corin, looks like a bad storm making up out there.
Finally got the DSL fixed, forgot what it was like.

What movie were you watching?

FOTR is the best of the three, IMO.
I liked that particular book the best too, for that matter.

Hi Sam! Agree with you, FOTR is my favorite of the three movies, as well. Not the book, though... ROTK is my favorite book of the three.

I hear you were having problems with arrays in Java ... do you have to create a Collection of some sort?

<not that I know anything about Java ...>
