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! |

New Zealander builds Hobbit holeA New Zealand man has built a Hobbit house.
Carl Gifford, a stonemason from Wellington, says he used a 10-tonne digger to make the hole.
He's put rocks either side of the front door and plans to install a chimney and lantern on top.
He told the Evening Post he was embarrassed as he was constructing the home.
He said: "I must admit I was hiding as the cars were driving past. I thought, 'These people think I'm an idiot'."
The house is part of a series of stonework mounds, designs and sculptures dotted around his land.
"I'm just having a bit of fun. Things that were built by those ancient people like caves have always fascinated me."

What would Jimmy Buffett do?Funny you should ask...
I'd say pooour me something tall and strong
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
It's only half past twelve, but I don't care.
It's five o'clock somewhere.

Hey there...
~sip~
Hey... I need a clarification from last night's show...
In the scene where Jack is up in Palmer's suite, after he's been on the computer and talking to Palmer's brother, he's leaving and says something to the brother about "Don't tell anybody what we found on the computer".
I must have missed it... what did they find on the computer? All I remember was they decrypted Palmers memoir... did they find something in it?

It was an encrypted copy of the memoir Palmer was working on, with a name and address hidden in it.
That name and address is what led Jack to the airport.
