The Hobbit Hole XXXV - ...is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

Posted on 01/03/2008 6:35:58 PM PST 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!

Evenin’ all. We’re birthday partied out. The Wii party was fun, but subdued. Then we had a family dinner tonight.

When I get the PC back I’ll post some pictures, including the picture of the party dog sporting his red balloon. I tied one on his collar with about 3 ft. of string. He wore it proudly the rest of the day. It did get him stuck under the table once or twice.

Actual conversation at table tonight:

Wife’s younger sister; What kind of wine is this?

Nana: About quarter ‘til seven.

Maybe so, but I think G’nad ‘ages’ his vintage longer than that.

Dang...major feral kitty squabbles going on over here tonight for some reason. Lots of yelling and carrying on. Turf wars?

In any case, it’s tickin’ Cisco off big time. Ungh. Hope they come to some agreement by the time I go to bed.
