Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
Crud, no more "Ann Coulter needs cheeseburgers" remarks for a while.
Cool, WN! But I know which lady I'd rather look like...
It's an old edition, but not quite an original. My only original Heinlein is in a 1954 collection called "6 Great Short Novels of Science Fiction".
I'll let you know if I find a robot cover, LOL! Have a good night!
OK, now I'm really going to bed! ;)
Good morning, sleepy Hobbit Hole Dwellers. I've been up since 5:15, OB's gone to get a haircut and I'm just getting ready to Gypsy for her walk. Y'all are missing the best part of the day!! LSA
Morning folks.
No time to hang around since I need to get the last shutters put up, bathe Jessi and bring her inside, clean out my bettas's tanks and lastly get myself and the girls bathed in case we're without water for a while. :-)
This hurricane season has been very draining and I'm well and truly sick to death of it.
The sky outside is looking grey and bleak and the gusts have started to pick up a bit, but thankfully I think it will hit north of Miami once again. Whew!
I'll check back in when I can and most of you have my cell phone number if you need to reach me. Bye!
Good Morning All - thanks very much for the Anniversary best wishes. Enjoyed them very much.
Workshop was excellent - Mo Dept of Conservation "Stream Dynamics" short course.
This weekend is Octoberfest downtown so we'll be sticking fairly close to home - keep an eye on the homestead. Amazing how many people come to events like that, people watching from the front porch is a quite enjoyable.
Driving home yesterday from Columbia, down 63 and then 50 to home - not a single K--ry Sign, Bush-Blunt-Bond all the way; quite refreshing to see that many, a number of hair/ecurbh sized versions as well.
Stay safe and prayers for all the floridians and especially our hobbits.
Bear - I recall seeing several versions of 'tenacled armed' robots in years past, where of course remains a mystery. Read a lot of SF from the library in grade school - then the Edgar Rice Burroughs PBs came out and read everyone of them, I don't think many others appreciated the ERBs like I did.
Morning - any luck or possibles on the house front? looks another great day here.
Best get a move on - lest I funkle.
BBL
Figuring out whether or not I'm going to Boca for a few hours to help friends there with plywood...I've got 2 sheets and they might need 'em.
But are you sure you won't be sorry whent the season's over...we'll miss all the drama, excitement, the being scared half to death every weekend!
That's pretty extra-ordinary! Wow! What a cool thing to do!
Unbelievable, great job!
Not sure what happens in an Octoberfest, but I used to have a great view of the big rodeo in town from my front porch in college, lived right next to the grounds. I made $$$ letting people park in my yard! Dollar less than the lot across the street! And I used to stay home to watch the goings-on.
Ruthy - give calls when you want to talk to someone somewhere where it is ~not~ stormy!
Nope. The Real Estate Guy is out of town until Monday. So I guess I'll look over what I can find on the web and come up with another list of houses to see.
Just got back from getting the vee-hicle serviced....Cubs and Heels are playing at the same time...must...have...coffee...
Will the green ones ripen?
So....is St. Helen's getting ready to blow again?
Yaaaay! We thought the same: total homage* to pulp. Visually wonderful, very stylish. Delightfully cheesey.
*Please pardon my French.
WN- OMIGAAAAWSH! That' is sooooo cool! Congrats! Congrats! (How very exciting!)
y'all stay safe!
