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!

That is interesting. I think one of the reasons I love marigolds so much is that they were one of my dad's favorites (along with zinnias and dahlias)and he always planted stuff for me: strawberries, cherry tomatos, marigolds, etc.. I have happy memories of time spent in the garden with him.

I watched those clips last night. Hilarious!

I just love how Cyn tries to play it off afterwards. *grin*

Gotta get ready for work here. Back later.

So... why'd I get up again?

FYI, since it's getting towards the end of the month and I don't wanna risk getting charged for another, I stopped Netflix. Any movies you have now need to be back to them by the first.

I've already gotten a note from them telling me I really *should* rejoin, and their site brings me to a page now that says the same. It's a cult or sumpin. Can't easily get away.

I'm going to be highly ticked off if they charge me again in spite of the cancellation. Some of the folks on the recent Netflix thread had that problem. Am I cynical or what?

Ok, I'll make sure everything gets mailed back to them on time! Don't want them to charge you for an extra month...

Good work!

FWIW, as much as I love the logo, I don't think there's need for the expense. We've already got more publicity than we can handle. And we're not really doing this so that ~we~ can be recognized.

More Paypal soon.

I've cancelled (and rejoined) Netflix twice already. And I currently have my account on hold for the next 90 days. I've not had any problems doing that.

Clear your cache and as long as you don't log in again, Netflix won't recognize you and keep giving you those messages.

(but you prolly knew that)

Mornin'

I was at thedentist earlier. My regular technician is out on maternity leave. Replacement knew what she was doing. Unfortunately this was her first day at this location, so she couldn't find anything or figger out how to work the equipment.

~That~ was comforting. ;-)

When she couldn't find the power switch, I ~was~ a little concerned...

Very lonely. I have no doubt.

FR, and more especially the Hobbit Hole, qualify as a blessing in my book. :-)
