The Hobbit Hole XXVII - And there are many paths to tread...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 01/16/2006 6:56:15 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And there are many paths to tread

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!

"If it ain't worth doing in the rain... it ain't worth doing."

Words to live by. :-)

Keeps everything clean and green, is the way I look at it. It just doesn't bug me. And... it doesn't actually rain as much as we pretend it does. We talk it up to keep more of those dang Californians from moving here. :-)

Hi all!

Steve is in bed. Went to bed at 9pm because it's supposed to start raining here at around 3am and he's on call to collect samples.

I dunno. Brake lights work. Back-up lights work. Just the left rear running light is out. Odd. Inasmuch as it looks like one light does duty as both brake and running light.

Dunno. I'll go into ~town~ tomorrow and let the dudes at the Jeep dealership figger it out.

They gotta change out that wiper anyway. Might as well give them a list.

Maybe they'll give you a free keychain. :-D

I don't want for things to go wrong. Little things like this and wiper blades I can deal with... but if I wanted electrical problems, I'da got a Land Rover. :-)

Famous for Lucas parts. Lucas Electrics... England's purveyors of fine electrical hazards since the 1930's. Lucas was credited with having helped win the war for Britain... because they sold so many electrical parts to the Germans before the war started...

LOL...

Ha! It's just a loose bulb, no worries!

Heh! They are really excited on the news. We're like 20 inches low of rain and we're expecting .5-1" of rain!

Just classic, 2J. :-D

I'm heating up water for my tea now. Alyson finally fell asleep.

She was ~vey~ whiny tonight.

Ohfertheluvva...

I just noticed the thread about Sheehan threatening to run for Feinstein's seat if she doesn't filibuster on Alito.

LOL... Good Lord... you just cannot make this stuff up. I honestly think we'll look back on these days and reminisce about how much fun it was "back then" to be in the GOP and watch the libs just self-destruct.

I'm really gonna miss Dubya when he's gone... he makes the dems just so... crazy. He's gonna be hard to replace. LOL.

I was following 2J yesterday. It's not a ~bad~ thing to want some tea. ;-)

I was just over on the troll thread, giving my opinion of the said troll. I think he's a chef in Sacramento.

I can't help but feel a bit sorry for her. Losing a kid could make anyone certifiable. But she's accomplished nothing except disgracing her son's sacrifice for the sake of politics.

~sip~

I'm gonna miss Dubya too. He's a hoot to have in office.
