The Hobbit Hole XXIV - Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...
Please see our Hobbit Hole Troop Support project blog! ^

Posted on 08/24/2005 9:50:25 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...

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!

Hey there.

Glad to hear you had an easy day.

I freeped a bit today too. It was slow, thank goodness.

Good snaig! I was watching for it, but my system is too slow right now.

My new video card should arrive tomorrow. I'll be very glad to have it!

Ended freepin' with my sister. :-)

It is uncanny how dense some freepers are. [sigh] We had fun though.

This Oklahoma bombing thing sure is getting interesting. Lots of tinfoil potential... but even a blind squirrel finds a bit of tinfoil every now and then.

...or something like that.

A wonderful tagline.

I would have stolen it, but I want to keep the troop support link up a bit longer.

I'm getting a Sapphire Radeon 9250 AGP... but that's just for display purposes.

I have a Hauppauge WinTV 250 PVR for video capture purposes. It can generate DVD quality recordings. Problem is, it puts a little TV viewing screen up on my display while it's recording, and my video card gets very bogged down, such that my system is almost unusable while it's recording.

LOST was really exciting tonight. The hour just flew by! :-D

See you all tomorrow.

Nighty night!

I'm glad they finally showed the orientation film, so we all know what's going on! ;)

Have a good night!

And when one little boy found out Matthew gets done with school at 1:30pm, he exclaimed "HOLY CRAP!"

Ha...I was teaching GA's last year and one little girl (first and second grade) said "fudge" only it wasn't fudge...needless to say, I took her aside and had a long heart to heart.
