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!

The neat thing about it was that it didn't *need* to malfunction.

It really, really doesn't like the big splashy number. Can't say that I blame it. ;-) Heh...

I can still function with it up in IE, but in Mozilla, it locked up the computer completely once and almost did again, so I turned off the images. Guess I either browse in IE or blind in Mozilla until it's off my page...

It shouldn't be that big or strange of a file.

Seems to work fine on my Firefox.

However, it is still a ~way~ gay gif.

Yeah, I dunno what's up. Granted, my computer's been funky lately. Probably time for a rebuild. *sigh*

I do stuff like co much at work that my own PC is way neglected.

[snicker] It would be fun to have a known Mozilla-killer all ready to post on the Win/Lin/*x flame threads.

Now *that* would be fun-in-a-box. :-)

I think it's video card/driver related, though, 'cause once it's scrolled off the screen, it's fine. Only a problem when it's right there.

Also they're dancing verrrrrrry slowwwwwwly, as if the image isn't completely loaded.

It's kinda interesting, actually. Too bad I lose mouse control, pretty much, when looking at it...
