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!

It turns out that thread was posted by a FReeper in Pago Pago, so if Corin goes there he has somebody to argue with.

Always an important consideration!

I never argue. I merely correct inadequacies. It's a calling and a gift.

In other news, Jr. didn't have to get up this a.m., but forgot to unset the alarm on his cell phone. After he hit snooze about 3 times I woke him up and told him. He said okay. Next time it went off he actually woke up he actually shut it off.

Luke said "I want my poptarts heated."

Then Luke said "My poptarts are too hot..."

At least it's Wednesday.

Yes, Wednesday. I was supposed to be on travel, but mgmt couldn’t be bothered to sign authorizations in a timely fashion... so I get to telecon the entire time.

Ugh. I don’t feel quite sick enough to stay home but I sure as heck don’t feel like going to work.

Joshua just came in here and said “If there wasn’t any water in the world, no one would be able to wipe.”

Good morning :~)

Honey’s taking off early today and we’re going to the fair. Gonna see Weird Al :~)

You can do it at a trot
You can do it at a gallop
You can do it real slow
so your heart don’t palpitate
Just don’t be late :~)

Hmmm... Well, having the flu is probably getting in the way of any excitement too then.

Okay, so our printer has finally given up the ghost. I gotta get a new one this weekend.

We want wireless printing. Any recommendations of one brand/model over the other?
