The Hobbit Hole XX - And take the hidden paths that run...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 03/05/2005 11:51:13 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And take the hidden paths that run...

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!

How cool! Aren't cons great? Did you take any of the kids?

Yes, we all went. The con was from Friday to Sunday. I took Friday off from work and we went to the hotel in Orlando (right next to Sea World) Friday morning. We stayed at the hotel that was hosting the con. They had good room rates and for the con they had a special closed-circuit channel piping anime to the rooms the whole time.

Friday and Saturday just my daughter and I went. My wife took the boys shopping at the mall and then spent the rest of the time by the pool. On Sunday I went ahead and bought the other three one-day passes and we all went together. We watched the cosplay contest and then mom and daughter went to watch some anime while the boys and I went to the 24-hour gaming room and played some video games together.

Everybody had a great time and the boys are busily planning their own costumes for next year.

Did you see a lot of Naruto wannabes? When I went to my con, Fullmetal Alchemist wasn't out over here so there weren't any Eds, even (but all the merchandise was cheap!). Lots of Inuyasha cosplayers and more stinky ninjas than you can shake a fist at. Also the inevatible six females crossplaying as Kenshin.

Yep, a lot of Naruto. There was also a lot of Inuyasha, FMA, Final Fantasy characters, and Japanese schoolgirl wannabes.

Hope there wasn't a Sailor Man there. Those are scary.

I didn't see any Sailor Moon, but there were quite a few guys dressed in dark suits, white shirts, dark ties and carrying around white crosses. I wasn't too sure what that was all about. There were also a few Triguns walking around. There were a couple from Bleach which I guess is the new "hot" show.

It was obvious that there were a number of Adult Swim fans in attnedance.

I did a lotta organizing in here today, and figuring out where I want furniture.

But I didn't make it to the bank.

I suppose I could always do that tomorrow, if'n you don't wanna wait for me if we go out questing.
