The Hobbit Hole XVII - A new road or a secret gate...
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 11/03/2004 6:16:42 PM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

A new road or a secret gate...

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!

"...under the name of Saunders, which means the word "Saunders" hung above the door in gold letters, and he lived under it."

I try to think of everything, but you just watch...it'll be the one thing I didn't think of that'll get me.

I thought to put the safety glasses on when I mowed, but I never thought to put them on when getting an appliance out of a cabinet and look what happened...I got nailed in the eye with the plug!

I live under the words "Press to test". On my smoke detector. But I don't need to test it. I already smoke.

Of course! Why should you be any different? ;~D

I'll be really disappointed if whatever gets you isn't something really extraordinary.

Refers to the tales of Edward Bear, aka "Winnie The Pooh". The book, not the movie, which does some damage to minor characters such as Rabbit and Faramir - woops. Scratch the last.

Here's a fun thread:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1291688/posts

I can't say whether we had anything to do with these particular units, but I've come to understand that we have some fun new toys that were put to use in Fallujah with much success. Deadly little robots. Lots of them.

This part is unclas: Picture a remote driven quadrunner with a video camera, a couple of shotguns, and bristling with grenade launchers. [sigh] Fun in a box. And rockets... gotta have rockets.

There's also a robotic boat that we've had something to do with.
