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!

Hmmm.... if I had *one* good reason not to.... but I hafta go in to do backups anyway and I might as well finish off upgrading DemonLady's lab.

Maybe I'll take next Friday off.

Not stupid. Just a terrible scheduling error. :-D

One which you will undoubtedly never repeat. ~snicker~

No label on the shark's tail with "DO NOT PULL" in big red and white letters.

Obviously, immediate federal legislation is necessary to correct this flagrant safety lapse.

At least this time your outside plants should be well-watered, what with the weather change and all!

Does Miss Cat have a clue as to your plans for her? LSA

All sharks should be regulated.

I'll write a letter to Jeb and see if he can get those things labeled.

I think that Bush conspired with Rove and Halliburton to take all the safety out of nature in order to cheat the Iraqis out of oil.

Tell Miss Cat to look on the bright side, at least she'll be coming home with all her fur, unlike my Princess Louise :-) LSA

Heh.... well, if the ACLU could locate the venue with jurisdiction... I have no doubt they'd love to sue the Almighty.

The defense would of course hire Jesus, of Nazareth Partners, LLC. Co-counsel would of course be John the Baptist and Paul (formerly of Tarsus & Co.).

It would make for some good TV. :-)

Suing God sounds like a good way to get the big Zot, don't you think?
