The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 10/15/2005 7:13:08 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Fare you well! Fare you well!

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!

Actually, I think you should be the one dressed up as Darth Vader. You know, "Luke, I am your father!"

LOL!!

You know Episode III comes out tonight at midnight. Matthew expects us to go first thing in the morning to get it.

I'm actually thinking of dashing down to Walmart and getting it at Midnight and surprising him in the morning.

Heh...don't think we haven't thought of that. Especially when he had to do his nebulizer treatments.

When Episode III came out, we got one of the promotional posters. It's Vader and the caption is "Who's Your Daddy?"

It's up in his room.

Response: "Seems reasonable."

Ok...my dad just emailed me and said they transfered the money they paid OUT of my account into their own account.

Excuse me?

How can they do that? It's my account! And it has a hold on it and nothing is supposed to be done to it!

It's what I was gonna do anyways, but it bothers me that Sam's did it without even telling me!

1) Call Sam's and ask them to 'splain exactly what happened.

2) Then tell them you want a new account number and their assurance they won't screw up like this again.

I'm no lawyer, and I've never played one in an extravagant Christmas production, but it seems like you could threaten some legal action.

Be vey nonchalant and say "I'd really hate to have to get my attorney involved"...

That's what I'm thinkin'! I mean, they told me the other day my account balance was ZERO. How they gonna explain it that it isn't any more?

I do intend to get a new account number...maybe. I'm tempted to say phooey and dump the whole thing...I don't "need" a Sam's card. I rarely go to Sams. Mostly I use it at Walmart because they take the Sam's credit.

I can get a Walmart credit card if I want a new credit card! No yearly membership fee.

The nephew going to Overland Park KS was living near Bolivar MO. He's the son of SirKit's other older brother.

Another thing you have to keep in mind...

My parents told me that they were responsible for my card.

They weren't.

My parents told me that they had cancelled my card...

They hadn't.

So my parents telling me one thing might be totally different from the facts.

Good point, and you're likely to get one with NO problems because of having the Sam's card. Get the Wal-Mart card before you cancel the Sam's card, though.

Seriously... what's wrong with the answer "sounds reasonable"?

I'll call Sam's when I get back in...I'm getting ready to go get my eyes plugged in about half an hour.

It's all in the presentation.

On one level it's a very...um..."reasonable" response. But it's ~how~ he says things.

That's all.
