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!

Neither do I... I know November's a way off but I want to get an idea at least. Maybe not a plot or a setting but an idea.

That'll teach thenaybers to buy a bug zapper...

*snort* Good news about Jr.'s job!
So sorry to hear about your Aunt. I don't think any of my Daddy's siblings are still living. Mama had 9 siblings, and of the 10 kids, 6 are still alive. They are all getting on in years, though. The baby of her family is now about 68. He is only a few years older than my oldest brother, who is the oldest of the grandkids.

He's not really coming apart, he's trying to keep you from enforcing anything.

Tell me too!! Gypsy doesn't pee on herself, but she just melts into a pile and rolls on her back when you try to discipline her. I know she was abused, poor thing didn't know how to be a dog, and didn't even bark for six months, but now, she playing us!! LSA

Heh - OK - I'll tell you. :~D discipline her as she needs, and don't chicken out just because she's cowering and bargaining with you... Ignore it, she's playing you :~D

Also had an Uncle Wirt. He was married to Aunt Zenobia.

Our corporate phone directory has an Adam Aardvark, and an Otis Screws.

Great news on Jr's job!

And I'm sorry to hear that your aunt passed away. Especially so suddenly. ~sigh~

My dad was the youngest of 9. Two "older" brothers died at age 2 and 4 at the end of the Spanish flu epidemic. One died on Saturday, my uncle was born on Wednesday and the other son died on Saturday.

See, it runs in the family. ;-)

When my dad died in 1978, he was the first of the adult children to go.

Can you say "Slow Boat to China?"

Yeah, not so much for the cliff hanger as for the way they ignored the whole space time continuum...unless of course Jack really isn't ~on~ that ship.

In perhaps better news, the jam session will end in just 13 minutes...

It was completely implausible. Even by 24 standards, they got out of there wayyyyy too fast.

And if they have Jack actually GO to China...it'll take him half the season next year to get back. ;-) Unless Chloe helps, I guess. She can do *anything*. Even open a rift in the space-time continuum for him.

I just think, as an American, I deserve a happy ending.

Maybe they'll have his imprisonment and escape as 'background' that's over when the new season starts. On the other hand, having him still be in China gets them out of LA.
