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!

To: Corin Stormhands
Holy cow! Quite a storm!
We have cloud cover and they actually will be removing the extreme heat warning sometime today. Supposed to get down into the eighties this weekend for the high!

Nope, not under water here, but apparently Houston (east of us) and San Antonio (south of us) both got vast amounts of rain.
I'm off to work!

Seriously, what’s with Texas and all this rain this year? Not being in drought is one thing but you’re gonna have to start building arks down there.

I’ve got DISH, but only the 100 channel package. I’m too cheap to get the 200 channel deal. But I did get my DISH internet hooked up this week and so far it’s been pretty nice. The FR Saddle Club pages with lots of pictures on them load up in about 5 seconds whereas they take about a minute on dial-up. I haven’t tried uploading pictures to Snapfish yet, but that’s on the agenda for this weekend. It did lose it’s connection this morning when a big thunderstorm came through, but I expected that, the same thing happens to my TV.
