The Hobbit Hole XXXVI - O! Water cold we may pour at need...

Posted on 05/03/2008 8:48:06 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!

Oh. Yeah. Right. Forgot about that.

It’s annoying me. And the logical thing to do would be just to check back later instead of hitting refresh every five minutes, but...

So am I. Yahoo works fine for me even though I only go there for news and email.

Every time I ever called Comcast for tech support, the first thing they told me was “reset your modem.” I can’t remember what site it was but there was one I consistently couldn’t get to. I think that’s what worked.

Worth a try.

One more werkin’ day and then I’m off to Tennessee for a week...

Once two strangers climbed ol' Rocky Top,
Looking for a moonshine still.
Strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top,
Reckon they never will.

Down here, the Gator fans might get peeved with you for singing that song.

Corn won't grow at all on Rocky Top,
Dirt's too rocky by far.
That's why all the folks on Rocky Top
Get their corn from a jar.

Eh...but I’ve done that. And flushed my DNS cache.

It seems to be back now. Dunno what was up.

Have you gotten any rain yet? We haven’t and I need rain to wash in the grub control (Bayer w/Merit) that I put down yesterday.
