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!

Evening OT - Sounds like a great trip. The leeches were fresh and the blood letting went off in fine fashion.

Walked around the Plaza, went in several places but came home without leaving the gift certificate anywhere. Well, no rush, got it in January and it's good till December.

Had a great lunch at PJ Changs; Singapore Street Noodles and Wok Lamb with brown rice. Hmmmm.Good. I had been there at Christmas for the Section Lunch, but it was LSA's first time there. I think we'll be back again.

Yeah...he milks the cow. I don't think the Rankin-Bass production wanted to put in all those extra frames.

Nah... they'll use it as an excuse to cut off your reimbursements...

I spend a ton on my health insurance and as soon as I actually use the perscription benefit, it maxes out... had something like a 200 dollar yearly benefit...

Mmm... PF Chang's... the parents are taking me there next weekend when I'm home. I like their Spicy Crispy Shrimp. And the lettuce wraps.

Our server made the sauce medium, we like spicey not pain. The lettuce wraps are quite tasty. Haven't had that shrimp dish, sounds good.

Aragorn and Boromir are wearing mini-skirts in the snow. Bet they wish they'd brought snowpants.

The only bitterness I have is that we are giving away the exact same items that the government taxed us for.

Any way to contact someone in the Procurement office of the DOD and put some pressure on them to get those knives out to the folks who NEED them? Now THAT might be a worthy thread topic!
