Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
...Pass them by! Pass them by!
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! |

Whoa... was not expecting four teams on the last leg. Cool. Looks like they'll be going all over the place, too.

Yep... what did you think of the meltdown? LOL... I used to wonder why she put up with him, as he's a total jerk, but in that ep I saw that she's almost as bad as he is.

It was... interesting. Christie showed her true colors (useless) and they both lost any grudging respect I had for them. I'm rooting for any other team to win.
Yippy, my coding's almost done! If I finish this tomorrow, then I can start the AI assignment Friday. Hopefully get it done by middle of next week and then do the parallel programming assignment... or do them together... or beg for more time...

Heading for bed here... have a good night!

Goodnight... I'm going soon too, since my code is so close to being done. Or maybe, one episode of Full Moon...

The value of the house with the screened porch might have been contingent on the owners doing the work before closing; the price couldn't change after they did the work.
I like that second house, too. No porch, but a bigger lot!

Hey there evellybody... [sip]
Where'd evellybody go??? [sip]
To: All
Ah, well... off to bed I go. Hopefully I'll finally have some time to check in tomorr-- er, tonight. It's been a long but thankfully very productive couple of days. Funny... it all seems like only one day. Since Monday. [sigh]
Have I ever told y'all that Sorbanes-Oxley is a really bad thing? It is. Just trust me on this. Every time I talk to the @#$%ing SOX consultants, I find out some stinking new thing that moves the goal post yet again... grrrrr. Running out of time to deal with new things.
Consulting: If you can't be part of the solution, there's good money to be made in prolonging the problem.
Niters... see y'all tommorr-- er, tonight.

Can we pretend it
is Friday?
Looks like New Orleans dodged a bullet.
To: Lil'freeper
Kewl...Rocky and Bullwinkel come on at 6:30.
To: ExGeeEye
I thought I'd set the timer on my coffeepot, but woke up and found that I hadn't. Now I gotta wait. WAAH!

New Orleans DID dodge it; they are very fortunate. Looks like Ivan came on shore at Gulf Shores AL which means that Perdido Key and Pensacola got truly slammed! The Pensacola Naval Air Station probably sustained a lot of damage, too.
We vacation with SSQ's family at Perdido Key, so we're anxious to find out how the condo fared. It is the last one on the road that leads into the Gulf Islands National Seashore. I'm sure the beaches and dunes are truly messed up.
