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!

Where is it you live, again? If there's someone near you to meet with, give it a shot! We've had lots of mini-moots that involve part of a Saturday or such.

[HairOfTheDog]

Where are you? and do you ever travel close to one of us? We'd love to make arrangements!

[HairOfTheDog]

It's the "After Holiday Waste Those Pounds Away Bronchitis Diet" Think it'll sell?

I'd rather try tapeworms. ;~D

[g'nad]

mmmm...tapeworms...

[Corin Stormhands]

al dente with marinara...

[HairOfTheDog]

I just wormed thenewdog yesterday... haven't had time yet to go out and investigate the results. I'll keep you posted though ;~D

[Corin Stormhands]

Did we ever decide on when to do a chat view?

[TalonDJ]

Actually I was just now popping in the second half of ROTK extended. I have not seen this half yet. If anyone is around and bored I am up for chatting.

[g'nad]

send pictures...

[Corin Stormhands]

I was thinkin' later, but I'll be around the thread for a while...

[TalonDJ]

Boarded? By you and which army?

[JenB]

Wouldn't "by you and what navy" be more appropriate?

Anime question - do you watch "Bleach"?

[HairOfTheDog]

If your driving... we can perhaps meet you and caravan for extra security.

[SuziQ]

Have you gotten to see here yet or is she too far away?

I've only seen her in pictures. I prolly won't be back down to MS until June, but I hope to see her then.

[JenB]

I'd be up for that! As long as we schedule it right. I'd want to do the whole drive in one long gasp - don't think I can manage to spend a day and a half driving, that would be too much time off.

[TalonDJ]

That still only counts as one!

[TalonDJ]

I am a little behind on that one but yeah I do.

[HairOfTheDog]

Maybe tonight? I'm trying to entice ecurbh to rearrange the furniture today ;~D

[SuziQ]

Well, if you and Rosie are driving together, 14 hours wouldn't be too much for one day. Y'all could trade off driving every two or three hours. Ya gotta do potty stops anyway! ;o)

[TalonDJ]

...in whose mighty company I shall not now feel ashamed.

Still the best line of the movie IMO.
