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!

This time of year they'll start gearing up for Spring weddings and proms. You prolly oughta get over there as soon as you figure out which shoes you're gonna wear, and take the shoes with you. They'll hem the dress to go with them.

LOL! have you noticed how Laura Bush pronounces 'poignant'? She uses a hard 'g' rather than the 'gn' sound as in lasagna.

I'm afraid I'm more like Bilbo than like Frodo...I'm going partly because I more or less made up my mind and have been swept along despite my struggles ever since!

A sore throat is all that remains of the bug. Here's hoping....

Saw a beetle for sale here in Grand Rapids, and another in Kalamazoo, today. Tempting.

If we all did it, we could follow up ShootMoot with a "There and Back Again" Bug Rally...

Prolly not. Oh well.

Am I in big darn trouble?

When I boot up the system, I get this warning: "CPU Fan Not Detected." I can hit F1 and bypass that, but should I?

What do I need to do?

Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope...

Shut it down, get a Philip's-head screwdriver (size 0, 1, or 2) and call Tech Support. Do NOT bypass that message!

Either your CPU fan isn't working, isn't plugged in, or your motherboard isn't detecting it. None of these are good things.

Is it still under warranty?

No, it's not under warranty.

I'll do as you say. If I don't have any luck I'll sign back on with the laptop.

Later.
