The Hobbit Hole XV - Pass them by! Pass them by!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 09/02/2004 2:18:28 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Pass them by! Pass them by!

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!

Ahh, good! The .wav file wasn't playing in my browser for some reason, although it played all right in Winamp.

Yes, going to bed is a prerequisite for getting up again.

Have a good night, and hope you have a lot of fun tomorrow!

The death toll is kind of shocking, to tell you the truth, and I guess it could have been worse.

SSQ just told me he read that 30 people are still missing from the Innerarity Point area of Perdido Bay. It was a fairly low lying area, and it is STILL under several feet of water. He said that most of the Perdido Key Blvd. is no longer there! That's the road that leads to the AL line, where the Flora Bama still stands, barely!

Night, Corin!

I'm heading on to bed, too. Spent the last 7 hours at the Parish Festival. The Gumbo was a HIT! My back is killing me, though, so I took a couple of Advil and have been sitting in my good secretarial chair with lumbar support until they kick in!

Good night, Bear!

I'm right behind you. It's fast approaching 1am here.

Sleep well, Hobbit Holers!

Yes, I really like the retro-techno look, from the ads. Also, the local movie-review idiot didn't like it, which is usually a sign that I will...

Our local reviewer rated the movie as "fair". But said if you were a comics geek, it would be fabulous. Sounds like an endorsement to me.

I'm suspiciuous of movies with only 107 minutes run time, but I find the architecture and art appealing. In the same way, I like the Batman movies, solely for the depressing quasi-stalinist gigantism and gloom.
