The Hobbit Hole XVI - Still round the corner there may wait...

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Still round the corner there may wait...
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! |

Morning everyone! Hmm I seemed to have missed something about teeth while I was getting caffeinated.

The teeth episode was Monday.
If you're gonna sleep through breakfast, you're gonna miss a lot of mini-dramas...

Heh...our parish (well...certain members of the parish) is starting an "adult education" video course. It's crap...buncha feel-good, rules are evil, all faiths are the same, warm fuzzy crap. Dad went to talk to the pastor about it...but that's another story.
We went to the very first one, just to see if it was indeed crap...I had my first hint when they started talkin' 'bout how we were going to watch a "mini-drama" from the Old Testament. I almost lost it, but managed to keep a straight face.

Really! And it was right next to the (sugar free) chocolate pudding...
It's kind of funny really. I complain a lot. But wife was telling me this and telling me how her Monday went. I really was oblivious to just about everything that happened that day. I remember that I got Luke dressed for bed, but Jr. took him because the wife was at an event at her school.
I remember that...and the applesauce...I wouldn't put money on any other memory from that day...
Except I think we watched Shrek, or was it a Kerry commercial...

That is a good one and one I own. It has a pacifistic (don't kill) sub thread in the plot but personally I thought it demonstrated clearly why only someone with superhuman ability can hope to stop evil in it's tracks without killing those commiting evil.

No doubt Old Testament "mini-dramas" are based on the writings of the Minor Prophets...

Yeah, when I had my sedation experience last month, I vaguely remember something about a wheelchair and chicken noodle soup. That is about it. My mother told me she had called and that I answered the phone. Said I spoke gibberish to her and hung up. LOL.

Heh...the doctor called around 8:00 p.m. to check on me. He said "yeah, you were pretty alert when you left here"...then he just laughed...

It's like Kenshin, who can get away with not killing because he's so good, it doesn't put the people he protects at risk.
There was a scene last night where all the townsfolk pulled out their guns at the robbers - I almost cheered.

Oops, sorry, my mistake. Yeah, the Freepathon really took no time at all...
