The Hobbit Hole XXII - ...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/01/2005 7:12:04 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe

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!

OB doesn't worry about blood chemistry and his cholestrol level is very low; you could double his level and it still wouldn't match mine!

Nothing personal, but we hates him.

Great read. I loved the part about not caring ~why~ they want to attack us, just wanting to stop them.

We haven't been there yet, but we've got a new restaurant here called "Cheeburger Cheeburger."

Okay, how come nobody told me Sean Bean was in National Treasure? (I just watched it tonight).

Same character really...questionable character, bad hair, lots of resources, obsessed by the precious/treasure...

Do they sell hamburgers or just cheeburgers?

And you know, Germany's almost as bad as France at this whole WoT business so shouldn't we call them Freedom Burgers?

Without the bun, maybe, for Atkins types?

Tho' I've been a bad hobbit last few days anyway.

LOL!

He does an awful lot of playin' conflicted characters.

Not a bad movie, "National Treasure". Far-fetched and silly as all get out, but still kinda fun.

Oh, I haven't even considered diet/nutrition this weekend. I'm going shopping tomorrow and starting back on South Beach on Monday.

That was a great movie!

And Jen saved you from the funkle. :-D

In other news, another palmetto bug attacked me a few moments ago. The weather must have drove him indoors.

I hope he didn't invite any friends. ~shudder~

If he made a number of witty remarks, yeah.

Made the whole "movie starring the scary Nicholas Cage" thing ok.

Yeah, I enjoyed it. Kinda glad I waited for the DVD.

Watched "Lemony Snicket" last night. Works better as a book.

But they did a pretty good job of it all the same. Had fun seeing it with the sibs last Christmas. Can't wait for the next of those odd little books.

I sort of like Nicolas Cage.

He's not "handsome" in the formal sense of the word, but he's a great actor to watch.
