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!

I don’t think I’ll be able to get a picture...from what I understand, if you blink you might miss it.

Only mods I made too my MAk-90 was a Williams peep to my OEM ladder rear sights. It is pre-thumbhole folding stock and a machined receiver vs a stamped. Very strong and durable. All I brought home from the wars were “real” AK magazines and some better spare furniture. Great little working gun that is really reliable and a nice rig for folks to cache due the design of the springs !

Just my opinion ........!!!

I...uh...just don’t know how to respond to that. I give up.

Long day. And I accomplished very little. *sigh*

At least I’ve transcribed about 12,000 words in the last coupla days - not at werk, neither. I’m finally about to where I almost remember where I was going with this thing. And I backed it up to Google documents. Makes me feel better than *only* having hard copy...

12,000 words? That’s almost as much as all my stories *combined*. Sheesh, I really need to get going.

I know I'm one that should never say "could this week get any worse?"...but I just found out that Jr. flunked his classes last semester. Well, the two that he stayed in, he dropped two of them and got an incompete.

'scuse me now whilst I just go have a stroke.

g'nad, do you need directions to my house?

A small, lop-eared bunny like that.

My family had a minilop like that a couple of decades ago. Also a beautiful Netherlands Dwarf I named 'Galadriel'.

I... just don’t know what to say. Except I hope he’s paying for them. The one semester at community college I did poorly that’s what my parents did.
