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!

Heh. I've attempted to watch that movie on at least a dozen occasions.

Never once been successful though.

"Show of force snaig" fit nicely in the keywords.

I never remembered that a VERY young James Earl Jones plays the part of one the crew on the B-52

His first movie role, IIRC.

Precious bodily fluids ping.

Great lines from movie history... "Gentlemen! You can't fight in here! This is the War Room!"

Is that from Dr. Strangelove?

Sounds more like Airplane.

You Should Get a JD (Juris Doctor)
You're logical, driven, and ruthless.
You'd make a mighty fine lawyer.

Really? Didn't know that, either.

I thought it was cool that you could definitely tell he had "the voice" going on. Even then.

It's going to be a long time before somebody else comes around with a voice like that.

My other favorite role for him was in Red October. Awesomely done.

I hesitate to post this...

You Should Get a MFA (Masters of Fine Arts)
You're a blooming artistic talent, even if you aren't quite convinced.
You'd make an incredible artist, photographer, or film maker.

Well, no surprise here...

You Should Get a PhD in Science (like chemistry, math, or engineering)
You're both smart and innovative when it comes to ideas.
Maybe you'll find a cure for cancer - or develop the latest underground drug.

It's absolutely from Dr. Strangelove. It was Peter Sellers as the Dr. to George C. Scott. Classic.

Well, you learn something new every day, right?

Thanks to you, I know where "No matter where you go, there you are" comes from too.
