The Hobbit Hole XIX - Tomorrow we may come this way...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 01/27/2005 9:59:05 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Tomorrow we may come this way...

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!

FTP??? What is THAT?

(File Transfer Protocol) A protocol used to transfer files over a TCP/IP network (Internet, Unix, etc.). For example, after developing the HTML pages for a Web site on a local machine, they are typically uploaded to the Web server using FTP.

FTP includes functions to log onto the network, list directories and copy files. It can also convert between the ASCII and EBCDIC character codes. FTP operations can be performed by typing commands at a command prompt or via an FTP utility running under a graphical interface such as Windows. FTP transfers can also be initiated from within a Web browser by entering the URL preceded with ftp://.

Unlike e-mail programs in which graphics and program files have to be "attached," FTP is designed to handle binary files directly and does not add the overhead of encoding and decoding the data.

The term is also used as a verb; for example, "let's FTP them the file."

What's that? Oh, it was a rhetorical question? Never mind. ;~D

Maybe the Chocolate Chunder is like that.

I have been thoroughly corrected on that one.

The "Chocolate Thunder" does sound very nice :)

Nice blog... you're making some progress there, it looks like!

Hi, all. I'm not sure what the weather's doing, it's sort of snowy. Which is bad, I need to get together with a friend to work on stuff. But if I get stuck at her house, that's bad because I have to go with my other friend to her doctor's appointment tomorrow... sigh...

Sure, I know what "chunder" is in Australian... but "chocolate thunder" has an unfortunate slang meaning here in the U.S. of A. too...

Anyway, here's the blog!

That's fantastic!

Truly, the web is changing the way we do things in ways both subtle and profound...

I still want to check out a church about twenty miles away, but I am such a wimp when it comes to snow travel. Sigh.

LOL!
The other day in teh FReeper Canteen thread I grabbed the triple six so that no-one else would get stuck with it.

*cue sad melodramatic music*
"I took the triple six for you! *coughing* Tell everyone I'll miss them!*death rattle*"

Ha! That's what we need, more drama! ;)

If I had been able to get it ready without being afraid someone would post ahead of me, I would have linked this wav file to the big "Evil!" in the 666 post...

Usually only have that kind of time in Zot threads.
And only if replying to the trolls.
*sigh*

I use these at times, the top two with a Susan Estritch photo:
