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!

Thank you Rose and Jen for your assistance. As for the rest of you, don't think I didn't see what you said.

I'm on the laptop right now. PC is off.

I called Dell support right after I signed off. Turns out I apparently AM still under warranty. The fan is dead. They're sending a replacement. And, not only that, when it gets here, they'll send a technician to replace it.

Wife is dismayed that she can't get to school files tonite, but that's the way the world works.

You're just lucky I'm counting that boat anchor crack as commentary.

This is what I love about the Hobbit Hole. Those who can help, help, while everyone else gets to make little jokes. It's fun. Especially since we all rotate between needing help, giving it, and making the jokes.

When you Google the word "bafflecrap", the ONLY thing that comes up is a post of mine from FR.

Since you posted it again, Google now shows the current post rather than the older post... I still got to the older post by viewing the Cached copy on Google, though.

Just thought you'd like to know...

Tonight alone, you have tripled the number of occurences of that word on Google... please note I did not use the word, as I want you to continue sole ownership! ;)
