The Hobbit Hole IV – The Road Goes Ever On…

Posted on 08/04/2003 9:43:18 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

The Road Goes Ever On…

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

At least one of the times it was in the wrong gear. I finally got it over to the side of the road, and I sat there and prayed and then thirty seconds later I got it into gear.

Heh...that actually sounds like a pretty tasty meal to me! Mmmm...spinach. I like the frozen stuff, though. Cooked and then with a little vinegar drizzled on.

I think I'll have sardines for dinner!

Here are several pictures of Matthew working with Steve on learning knife safety as part of his cub scouts.

First, Steve tells him all about knives. "Note the beveled edge?"

Here, Matthew is learning how to sharpen the knife, using a sharpening stone...

Now Matthew is learning how to do shaves and stop cuts...

Now it's time to push up your sleeves and carve a bear in the soap!

The completed bear...(with some help from Steve...but not much!)

Yep...nary a cut! Now they worked on this VERY slowly all afternoon and just chipped away at it...you can see in the way Steve is hovering over him. The knife was Steve's pocket knife...they looked at the bigger, not so sharp knife, but actually carved with Steve's very sharp knife.

Tell him good job!

ARGH! The other programmer finally handed me my bug fixes. On his way out the door. On a business trip. And it majorly broke my software. I have to roll back at least three dozen files, one at a time, before I can do any more work.

Well, it looks more like a pig to me...shhhhh!

But I love it. I mean, I love it! Every time I walk in the dining room I can smell it and I grin.

He has his den meeting tonight where he shows it off.

Still trying to fix what's been done to me, and deciding how to fix the other programmer...

Hey, look what just showed up on Yahoo! Anyone seen this before?

Full story here

BERLIN (Reuters) - New Zealand film director Peter Jackson (news), tipped to win an Oscar for his "The Lord of the Rings" epic, said Monday he would like to make "The Hobbit" prequel to the trilogy and work with some of the same actors again.
