Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
...Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
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, Well 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! |

There will be more lovely days! This is Colorado, remember? ;-)
If I swap discs, it'll be after this is all done...I'll come back here and change first. Thanks for letting me know where to look for it!
Wondering just how early I should set out. *bites fingernails*

Ok, I will try to contribute a few posts...
Who are the Star Wars nerds and when will you go to see the latest episode?

Glad it worked out OK in the end! Interesting phrase considering the content of the pictures.
But I've said too much already...

I can't say I'm a Star Wars nerd.. I haven't seen the last one ;~D
To: HairOfTheDog
You missed what had to be the worst one ever...of course others would disagree.
The preview for the upcoming one looks cool. There's also Hitchhiker's Guide and the Bllom film Kingdom of HEaven. It may be a decent summer.

I used to be, before the last two abominations. Probably I'll see the new one, though. I'll be on summer break then and have some free time in the evenings.

I don't know what to expect from Hitchhiker's Guide... I love the books, not sure if they'll be funny in a 'serious' film... I've seen the low budget series, and they were campy and cheezy, but not really my image of the books either. We'll see!
I wonder if I should read it again... it's been years, not eve sure if I remember the plot.
To: HairOfTheDog
Plot? What plot?
The Earth gets blown up and then they go knocking around the galazy, looking for the Meaning of Life, with random interludes of white mice, Brockian Ultra Cricket, tea, the occasional nova, and flying. And Marvin ends up approximately 27 times the age of the universe.

Not a Star Wars nerd here, but wife and I will probably see it sometime during the opening weekend.
"Fantastic Four" is also due out this summer...

And a version of "War of the Worlds" that appears to be based on the front cover of a book by H.G. Wells, but promises entertainment nonetheless.
Isn't Hollywood falling behind on its quota of Philip K. Dick stories turned into movies?

So, speaking of anime (which we weren't)....
I just saw the trailer for Howl's Moving Castle, and realized you could probably answer the question I've had for a few decades now.
Why are the characters in Japanese cartoons usually pink-skinned and exaggeratedly large-and-round-eyed?

Certainly not a SW nerd here, but I am trying to talk the wife into seeing it in the theater eventually. She's pretty reticent, and I can't say as I blame her, after seeing what SW has become.
I am ~really~ hoping JarJar dies a horrible, brutal, slow, painful, gruesome death... that alone would make it worth seeing!

I think because of the cast FF can't be taken seriously...though maybe I will be pleasantly surprised...

Because they learned to animate from Disney. Seriously! That's why! Look at early Disney movies and you'll see the same large eyes.
Have you seen Castle in the Sky? Your kids would love it.
