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! |

Evening Rosie - glad your brother got out intact; sorry to hear about the car, we know you cared for the little corolla. But it did it's job when called on and protected the driver. Can't ask more than that.

Those EOD guys are just not wired right. Regular people don't do that. Regular people run ~away~ from 'sploding things.
There's a special place in heaven for EOD guys, and I only hope its on the other side of heaven from ~me~. :-)

Well.....I do like dropping acid on magnesium pellets... I only used to like dropping acid on Fridays. That way I was pretty much normal by Monday. :-P

I've never done acid on magnesium pellets.....
To: HairOfTheDog
Me neither.
But I do know better than to do Acid and Mushrooms at the same time.
Very bad.
Not just "ball-peen-hammer-on-your-head" bad... but "screaming-shreeking-strapped-to-the-front-of-a-runaway-locomotive" ... that kind of "bad".
Not that I would know. :-)

Of course not.
Whew... For our next miracle... we'll grow old :~D
To: HairOfTheDog
I'd settle for growing up...
Had a nicish evening with friends, who alternated on convincing my sister that I am stringing guys along, and frightening me with details of just how creepy TheCreep is being and how I should watch out. It was fun.

What do you think? Is this common? The guy that bought my sprouter never contacted me although he did pay and I wrote and told him the package was on the way and got no response. Weird!Yes, it's common. You just have to set a higher standard, and become a beacon of restraint. [Cue the graphic]

guys got a set of cajones the size of bowlin' balls... Sounds like you work with guys who have already earned a Hobbit Hole knife. At least they can accept one of our pocket knives as our way of saying thanks.
I have five CRKT 5700s and two Ka-Bars left, all with the NEW Hobbit Hole logo on them, making them rare variations. Do you want me to send them to you to spread around as appropriate?

The UFO-loking things that, in Men in Black, were alleged to be (and flown as) alien spcecraft. I was wondering what they actually were, and if anyone had been inside.
