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 all... wondered if anyone had a link to a good source of LOTR .wav files. The specific one I'm looking for is SpookyGaladriel's "All will love me and despair!" line... not the whole speech, just the last line.

Thanks!

[HairOfTheDog]

"All will love me and despair!"

Got a flame war going? :~)

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Heh, I thought it might come in handy one day... I found a link to the longer speech which includes that line, but I couldn't find one of just that bit.

[Overtaxed]

Ya want me to try and clip it for you?

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Can you? I just need the audio, not the video... thanks if you can!

[HairOfTheDog]

Want some turkey soup? We've got lots :~)

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

"The heavenly aroma still hung in the house. But it was gone, all gone! No turkey! No turkey sandwiches! No turkey salad! No turkey gravy! Turkey Hash! Turkey A La King! Or gallons of turkey soup! Gone, ALL GONE!" < /ralphie >

[HairOfTheDog]

Them were some baaaaad dawgs :~)

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

I've got movie-quote mania tonight... ;)

I put it in our Yahoo group folder if this link doesn't work

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

That's great! Thanks a lot! :)

[JenB]

Heh, great movie, I can hear that line exactly in my head.

[RosieCotton]

Thanks for the offer! Can I come get some tomorrow evening? I forgot one piece of the paperwork today, so I'll be getting home late-ish tomorrow evening, and dinner ready-made would be awesome...

Also I had some leftover turkey tonight, so I'm not feeling much like getting off the couch... ;-)

More Jack goin'.

[HairOfTheDog]

Fair enough! we're turkeyed out here ourselves, so we're easy :~)

[RosieCotton]

Just an observation...

If life was like 24, bizarre twists would always occur at a minute or two before the hour. Funny how that always works out.

[JenB]

Watching too much 24, or had a bizarre twist occur?

[RosieCotton]

Watching too much 24.

I only dream bizarre twists. *sigh*

Did not sleep well.

[JenB]

Ugh, me either.

[Overtaxed]

Morning!

~sip~

I'm wearing white shoes after Labor Day. :)

[RosieCotton]

Heathen.
