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! |

Nah ... get a Gulfstream. They're much nicer ... and only require a single pilot! Learjets require two. Lucky for me... I have such friends to rely on for such decisions. I am eternally grateful.
Just imagine the agony of reliance on government progams for those obscene jetfuel needs... oh... heavens... it sickens me to think of it...

Hey, there's a share in a nice Gulfstream for $1.2million. What's your worry, Master Sea-man?
<snicker>
Good night, all!
I leave you with these tidbits: the best chocolate for dipping is called courveture, and it's ready for dipping at about 85 degrees.
<nibbling>Sooooo good!

Actually, I had browsed the ~other~ site....
From the grey horse ad "Very beautiful registered purebred Arabian mare, 9 years old, gray, about 15 hands. No vices. Green broke to ride. Need to sell her to settle a board bill. Would be an asset into anyone's riding or breeding program."
Heh - I know Phyllis. She runs the boarding stable in Rochester, and this horse is a repo. Interesting!

Repossessing a horse... what a strange concept, somehow.

Ramius will be able to afford a share in that Gulfstream when he's successful enough to get us ALL 6 figure salaries! Then he can have a little landing strip (OK a long landing strip) for it at the Hobbit Hole compound.

Well, I guess it's more like a lien on the horse.... The owner didn't pay the board bill and she seized it.

Makes sense...
My program is *this* close to working, but the last step will probably take four hours...

"No, the letter 'y' on the keyboard."Two days in a row now, I've gotten people who did not comprehend the concept of "upper case" vs "lower case". One of them, in fact, was not too sure what a keyboard was. He thought everything was done with the mouse. Must have a Mac at home.

I've been watching the sporting goods store ads in the Sunday supplements for post-FAWB changes...last Sunday I saw the first SKS (Czech) with bayonet (blade) in many moons.
I got mine (Chinese) (spike) before the FAWB (and managed not to go on more than my fair share of murderous rampages), so I won't be after one of these...but I'm looking forward to the possibility of a fully furnished semi-auto-only AK variant.
BTW,Good Morning!
To: Ramius; SuziQ
Dropped off last night - was getting late and now it's dern early. The junket (on the federal gov'ts. dime - your Homeland Security tax dollars at work) goes well so far. Though we're wondering why they couldn't find some closed fort in Hawaii to use for this...we are way out here in the boonies of Alabama, without any way to get to the one town around here. Anniston looks to be about the size of Ellensburg or so. But we are about 5-10 miles outside of town up in the hills.
Suzi, I haven't seen kudzu, but I'm going to start looking for it now! We walk the mile or so over to the training center from the dorms every morning, and I haven't noticed anything unusual on the tree trunks - but then I haven't been looking.
To: Scott from the Left Coast
Goooood Morning!
Izzit Friday yet?? I can soooo use a weekend. My mom is coming out for a visit and I'm going to take some time on Fri to spend with her. I can't wait!

Two days in a row now, I've gotten people who did not comprehend the concept of "upper case" vs "lower case". Must have been some of my former chemistry students. That's one of the reasons I got out of the field. I was sick of trying to convince parents that their 16-year olds' failure to recognize the difference between upper and lower case was a problem. And don't get me started on their ability to multiply two numbers together. *ack*
Must have a Mac at home.
Careful, there.
