The Hobbit Hole XXVIII - Through shadows to the edge of night
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 02/24/2006 9:52:11 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Through shadows to the edge of night

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!

I gotta watch the movies again...it's been a while. While the door was frozen shut, we had a Star Wars marathon.

If the judge had even the ~slightest~ sense of humor he would have sent the order though...

...from his blackberry.

So what's the upshot of the trial? I didn't even know there was one going on. What was the deal; someone complaining that whoever made the Blackberry had stolen the idea from someone else?

A little bit ago, the walkie-talkies started going wonky and vibrating. I CAN NOT TURN THEM OFF.

Quick, check the field for crop circles!

Fill up some water glasses and keep them handy, just in case!

Heh, I was searching for an image while you were posting. I was looking for one with the baby monitors they used to listen for the aliens, but I couldn't find one.
