The Hobbit Hole XXIII - Let them go! Let them go!

Posted on 07/12/2005 8:11:36 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Let them go! Let them go!

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!

Heh... near the end, just as the Canadians are about to attack, a black guy standing next to Chef says in a JarJar voice, "Is some people gonna die?"

Then Operation Human Shield ducks out of the way...

"Great plan, Chef!"

"Operation Human Shield, my a**!"

It may be sad that I can recite these lines from memory... I just don't know...

OS we need to get you guys in to chatview with us. "He needs Elvis medicine" is what is usually said when Aragorn turns to Sam and asks him to look for the kingfoil.

Ah, nuts... does that mean I have to eat this banana and peanut butter sandwich after all? Or not? :-)

Mixing the two together doesn't appeal to me. :-)

And with that, Good Night All

Yeah, saw "FF". Thought it was funny, actually. Didn't know the characters at all so I don't know how they interpreted them, but I went in expecting a blow-things-up movie with some humor, and it was that. Thought Torch-boy was the best in the bunch.
