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!

Looks like Madlax was at the end of its run. On AnimeDB it says that there were going to be 26 episodes. I'm getting up through 25 as quick as I can. Then all I'll have to do is find #26.

Will you be needing cookies?

Madlax did get licensed but I am betting finding 26 should not be to hard. It was anounced on saturday. Samurai 7 got picked up also.

Are you going to send them straight to him? He's still here, right now...might be a safer way to do it.

My understanding is they are shipping out after the new year.

I'll post the email here in sec...just got in.

I'm home too. I tried to get out of Joshua's spanish class at co-op...it's expensive, it's at an awkward time and I just wanted out of it. I was told no, I can't get out of it. Told I could set up a payment schedule, which embarrassed me and I just went ahead and payed for it.

Now I'm feeling sullen and irritable, even though I know it's my own fault.

Tonight I'm going to meet Dr. Coburn, who is running for senate. He's having a townhall type meeting with homeschoolers.

I'm sure I'll post pics.

No, I'm seeing it with the anime club and they are on top of things. Thanks!

Having finished Full Moon wo Sagashite, I feel no qualms about reccommending it for your family. Was thinking that it illustrates the principle "Love is patient, love is kind, love uses 'baka!' a lot..." (oops, will I get smote?)

Any other good suggetsions? I just got handed Neon Genesis Evangelion, and I'm going to watch FLCL but I doubt either of them is super family friendly.

YES!

Lab is cancelled. I get to go home at a normal time! Yippy skippy!

This gives me a chance to put debugger code into my program before I demand, tomorrow, that our TA tells me why it's not working... sigh...

Letter from the Renegade Chaplain!

This email is in response to my question regarding whether or not they were going back to Afghanistan and 300winmag's question about how many soldiers were in the chaplain's unit. I'm using wneighbor's ping list...I put this particular picture here just 'cause I like it.

Kim,

You're right!  The Devils in Baggy Pants (whom the Renegades support) are going back!  That would be incredible!  I love my knife!  Several of our soldiers have commented on me carrying a knife, since Chaplains don't carry weapons.  They like to see their Chaplain carry a knife!

I can't give out numbers of soldiers, but it's a little more than what you've mailed to this point.  That's a lot of knives!  One thing I definitely want you and the Hobbit Holers to understand is that I/we do not have any expectations for anything.  Y'all (hey, I'm from Texas) have been incredibly generous to the Renegades as well as the other soldiers you have supported.  We are extremely grateful!  It's awesome to not just hear how you support soldiers, but to see you all demonstrate your support and appreciation week in and week out.  You simply don't know how far that goes to motivate and encourage soldiers.  Thank you!

Let's continue to pray for our upcoming election and for the soldiers who are in harm's way as we speak.

Clay in His hands,

Chaplain, 307th FSB
82D Airborne Division
"Renegade Chaplain"

Make sure he knows we want to keep praying for him, and keep us updated! Thanks, 2j!

I have a feeling he is talking about the number shipped to date... The Hobbit Hole :: The Pocketknife Project not the nine posted letters.

That was my take on it too...

We have work to do.

How about starting a "Buy a knife for a soldier and we won't ping you to the Hobbit Hole" campaign? Maybe we could get Destructor to sign on...

I actually sent cake and flowers. But it was a bit spendy.

I'm outta here. See y'all later.
