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!

Ebenin' ebellybody...

[Ramius]

Willy Wonka is on!!! Woohoo!

[RMDupree]

I love Willy Wonka.

You're talking about the Gene Wilder one, right?

[Ramius]

Yup. Haven't seen the depp version. Not sure if I want to.

[Ramius]

Willy Wonka imported illegal aliens and replaced all of the towns workers with those Oompa Loompas.

"Teh terk arr jerbs..."

:-)

[RMDupree]

It wasn't as deranged as I thought it would be, but I still favor the original. .

[Ramius]

Hmmm... the new cable box is still rebooting itself for some reason. Happened about four times in a hour this morning... went all day just fine... now just did it twice in a row.

Has yours ever done this?

[SuziQ]

WHOA!! That'll buy some nice things!

[RMDupree]

I've already told Becky that the money is for her and her sister to buy new clothes when we get to Washington.

She was even more excited to find out that they have several locations of her favorite store there!

The Children's Place. Great prices, cute clothes - a budding fashionista's dream. :-D

[SuziQ]

The Children's Place has great clothes!! They are cute, and classic, not trendy.

[SuziQ]

Well, I guess they ARE trendy, but they're awful cute!

[RMDupree]

And very few, if any, "Hoochie" clothes.

Very important to Mommy.

[g'nad]

mmmmmmmmmmmm... hoochie...

[Ramius]

[snort]

[SuziQ]

LOL! No 'hoochie' in sight! That's great.

[RMDupree]

[RMDupree]

It's unbelievable what sort of clothes I see for 8-year olds these days.

And it looks even worse when you see little girls wearing that stuff!

They're ~little girls~, fercryingoutloud!
