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!

But I'm not even at the middle yet! It's too early for battle-to-the-death.

Okay, now the toaster has spewed forth ninja llamas from beyond.

Ohh, I hate when they do that!

BTW do ninjas run around yelling like those guys in the kung fu pictures or are they mostly silent?

That's what happens when you pull up the pop-up thingy too early.

They are silent. Lousy ninjas make noise.

Hmmm....so I'll have to decide if they're good ninja or lousy ninja...

And is an ordinary schmoe with ninja llamas a match for a warlock with an evil toaster?

I'd say that depends on which "beyond" the llamas came from. If they have super powers, it may be at least a fair fight.

Maybe I sthould try to get likkered up before writing that part.

'Course I could always have the llamas smoothe their wool for a while.

I pretty much hate my Nano characters. None of them are behaving as they were supposed to.

You can always kill them off. I have a nanotechnology-enhanced biological weapon you can borrow.

I don't hate mine ... quite the opposite. They're being durn distracting! My minor characters are more interesting, at the moment, than my main characters! I hate it when that happens!

I'm with you! Toaster-boy is turning into a charmer.

Now Thunder Hill Fitness is expanding business hours, and probably going to set up a second branch out near the Spaceport.

Speaking of which, Corin, you, or rather your other nom de plume, also run a general store in my outpost town.

(It got sacked by Nationalist insurgents and when the Union forces came in the Nationalists set off their biological weapons. It was a big mess, but you went down fighting in the initial skirmish. )
