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!

Hey - this is a family thread.

Heh.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

oooh, I hate when that happens!

[JenB]

Well, good, I hope she feels up to it.

[RMDupree]

Evenin' folkses!

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

I think she will... that's the plot she's been working on.

[JenB]

Good! Tell her I will be pinging her like nuts.

I just got my home-made computer online. Workin' Remote Desktop so I don't have to have it crowd this desk. It's going beautifully so far...

[RosieCotton]

She's been spending a lot of time sending out resumes, plotting her story, and playing Age of Empires.

LOL!

We have a LOT in common, then, Rose. ;-)

I miss playing with my brothers. May have to figure that out again one of these days. Surely it's possible.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Oooh, found this on another thread:

[RMDupree]

~snicker~

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

It's so... appropriate, for some posters, isn't it? ;)

[RMDupree]

So VERY appropriate.

[HairOfTheDog]

ROTFL!

[RosieCotton]

Oh man...that's *almost* too close to the truth to be funny.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

I think there's an online service that will let you play games like AoE across the Internet... but it's probably not free.

[RMDupree]

TAR just started. :-D

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Yup, we're going to start watching after the first half hour. We're watching "My Name is Earl" right now... pretty funny show!

[Ramius]

Hey howdy there folkses! :-)

[sip]

SOX... is evil. :-)

[RMDupree]

I'm gonna have to catch Earl on Saturday night.

I've heard nothing but great things abou tit, but it goes right up against TAR. ~sigh~

[g'nad]

You grilled it...

too bad we didn't get any pics of the Bambi bits at SootMoot... or the tenpoundsuhshrimp...

[RMDupree]

about it...

Sorry. Forgot this was a family thread. :P
