The Hobbit Hole XXII - ...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/01/2005 7:12:04 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe

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!

It would just be Faramir and a handful of guys with third hand used A-4's

The EYE! the huge freaking BURNING EYE!!!

You know, that brings up a good point. Imagine how you'd feel if you were just a giant flaming eye that couldn't even blink...no eyelid, you know.

Was there anything wrong with Sauron that a fire truck full of Visine wouldn't have cured?

Whoa, just stop by the grocery store on the way home and the thread's gone all weird! Cool.

Don't you think the walls of Mordor would have been laden with anti-aircraft guns, anyway? I doubt they'd get as far as Mt. Doom...

Considering he was just as evil and dangerous before he lost his body, yes.

Well, yeah, but Rohan's A-10s would be in top condition, if too few for the task at hand.

Well, there is that. =]

But isn't it fun to imagine the guys from the 19th Street Fire Company backing up their pumper truck and unreeling the hoses..."Okay...Let 'er rip!"

Nah, they were all about cavalry! They would have been all M-1s and Apaches and such. The "red sun rises' speech would have been delivered from the commander's hatch on a tank via radio.

Load a C-130 firebomber with Visine, send it over the mountain range. Comes in fast and ends the story by the middle of the second movie.

'Course you might need Visine for contact wearers.

You think he has contacts, too? AND no eyelids?

Ooh...that's gotta hurt. No wonder his eye burns.
