The Hobbit Hole XXIX - Until the stars are all alight...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/20/2006 2:10:46 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Until the stars are all alight

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!

Oh that is painful to watch! I think SirKit wondered if I were going to look like that after my Gal party last night! LOL! Nah, we had a couple of Pomegranate Martinis, but mostly just chatted. It was fun. I hadn't some of those ladies for a while, go it was fun to catch up. When I get the recipe for the drink, I'll post it. They were like Cosmopolitans, but made with Pomegranate juice instead of Cranberry juice; YUM.

Here's a weird one from The Weird One :)

K, so I use the LAN port* on the 'puter for cable internet. Also plugged into the router is the box for Vonage which is my phone service. Plugged into that is a normal house phone system...well, it's normal by my standards 8-}

I have this unused telephone input on the modem that came with the 'puter, a pretty good speaker setup, and choice of mics.

I thought this morning to go looking for freeware (preferably) that would put a virtual phone on or accessible from my desktop, so that I could plug into the Vonage box from the modem and use the phone without actually picking up a phone :D

I may not know where to look, and enough of you are really tech-savvy and may know about something already.

Whaddaya think?

*Please forgive inaccuracies in technical language.
