Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
...That none have seen but we alone.
New verse:
|
Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by! |
Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well! |
Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed! |

The really cool thing about the Muppets was that it was on Prime Time television *and* my dad watched it with me (sometimes). He loved the two old men in the balcony. The humor was universal and it was not just a kids' show.Definitely! I think that was true to a lesser degree of the early Sesame Street, too. There are some old skits that still make me laugh. Ernie was my favorite when he got on Bert's nerves :)

You can still find the Muppet show in reruns sometimes. that's how I watched it. It's still funny...Have you ever seen the original Muppet Movie?

Rosie's more than a book ahead of you! We could turn this into a race, you know...
Footnotes, huh? Boring, nobody reads them. You should throw in some jokes just for fun.

Oh, yeah, we have watched all the Muppet movies so often, we know all the songs. Muppet songs, along with hymns, Gilbert & Sullivan, and contemporary Christian rock, are to be heard from my family almost any time of the day or night.

hehe, yeah, I still consider Austin kinda small. It's amazing. I never used to think the D/FW metroplex was big. I really thought a city of less than 100,000 to be tiny. In my experience, a city with a population of only 4 or 3 digits was inconveivable.
Dang! Born and raised in the city. (my high school graduating class was the smallest of the three high schools the city had at 540. The other two schools had 700+ that year. By the time my brother graduated from HS, the city had (and still has) 5 high schools.)

Okay, I am *really* getting elfy on you now. I just called and scheduled my pedicure for the wedding. (Can't believe it is so close that I'm getting the appointments now!)
While I was on the phone I talked to the head of the cosmotology department cause I designed some new workstations for 'em and they're having the renovation done for which those were designed. I wanted to see how it was going. Well, we chatted and I told her about leaving for the wedding. She knows how my hair is usually just a crappy looking shrub and she asked me if I wanted to come in for some kind of fancy conditioning treatment to try to make it behave. So, I'm gonna try it.
Now, I'm not holding out much hope for a non-shrub still. I was gonna just braid it if there was wind. But, gees, maybe it might *really* look elvish for a day or two! LOL

That might be fun :) I could credit Monty Python. . .My friends and I made a cable-access movie in high school and at the end we did really long Python-esque credits. Some exchange students visiting from Italy acted as extras in one scene but we didn't know their names, so they were credited as "some Italians". Parents were also credited for driving the actors to and from the set. Under the credits for "pyrotechnics", it said, "You didn't see them" :)

Our class used to sing "The Rainbow Connection" in music class :) I haven't seen any movies past the second one, though. Are the later ones good?

Austin still has a lot of "small" town atmosphere to it, although I think that is gradually changing.

At the high school I went to (one of two in the county) my graduating class was 134... at the time, Michigan rated high schools by size as A, B, C, D (A the biggest, D the smallest). My high school was a class "C" school, the high school on the other side of the county was class "D". It's gotten smaller since then, I think, so that now both are class "D".
