The Hobbit Hole XXXIV - But better than rain or rippling streams...

Posted on 08/07/2007 7:52:15 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

I doubt— whatever you think— that it’s what you think :)

It is, I hope, unusual, temporary, and non-recurring.

Just teasing you man. Praying for you and the Mrs. Congratulations again, it was a lovely wedding. Very moving to have that recording of your parents’ singing.

You know... I do actually remember my mom complaining about how unfair it was that the chemo made her lose her hair on her head but she still had to shave her legs.

How is that going, btw... does it make you feel pretty bad, like chemo can? I haven’t been there.

muh appetite ain’t what it was... but then I need to lose a few pounds... that’s why I call this muh Jenny Craig program...

I appreciate just knowing what you’re going through. I know you won’t complain unless we ask ;~)

Heh...interesting way of finding a lead singer, huh? I’ll have to check it out when I’m home.

Sorry about the whole episode this morning. :-\ But at least it meant they were able to confirm that the part that’s coming in is right.

Ooh, and I got a bonus! Yay!
