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!
Don't say that, cause that would make me, OB, LSA and Sam feel downright ancient! ;o)
“Dude”.
Really.
You might want to go learn something.
Oooh and Lost. Don’t forget about Lost.
Like, OMGWTFBBQ!!!
You guys take care!! Your end-of-the-world weather is all over the news. It makes me fret.
24 - January 11
LOST - January 16
BSG - January 21
Not that I’m counting or anything.
No, but you have no problem asking us to do your homework.
Seriously. We're happy to answer questions. Sometimes we even still talk about themovies and stuff here.
Several of us suggested you read the books. Or if not that, watch the movies again. You'd at least pick up that Frodo calls Bilbo "uncle" on more than one occasion.
But, there's a lot of depth and back story that you'd get from the books.
BSG starts again on Friday, Jan 16th at 10 PM. The last 3 episodes of Season 3 and the first half of Season 4 will be on all day on the 16th, starting at 8:30 AM.
I dunno if I’ll bother with 24 this year.
BSG is another story.
Izzit January 21 yet? Izzit January 21 yet? Izzit? Izzit??
We won't flood, ever... well, at least not without some significant warning such as calls for two of each creature... But Rosie may leak.
Oh - and by the way.... we have stopped raining here. Most rivers will start going down today.
Locally, it’s mostly just south of here that is/will be flooded pretty badly.
What stinks is that it’s the same area that was flooded badly in December 2007. They were only *just* finishing the interstate repairs (it was under about eight feet of water at the deepest point), and a lot of people hadn’t recovered yet.
This time around, there’s pretty much NO route between Seattle and Portland—the passes east and west have avalanche danger, so truckers can’t even go the way long way around. That’s going to cost folks money. :-\
*sigh*
Yeah.
But it's not nearly as bad this morning as it was when the rain faucet was on alllll the way last night. That was...impressive.
Except the Chehalis, which they’re saying won’t crest until midnight.
Gonna get wetter there.
But it does seem far more cheerful without torrential downpour banging on the roof.
I had the wierdest dream last night. By the way, does anyone know what a cubit is? ;~)
You say things like that just to taunt me. Don't you?
