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!

OK, my question got answered on the Official "24" Thread. The bald bad guy is Paul McLane. The person on the thread said he played a doctor on "ER". I do remember seeing him on that show a couple of times.

Heard back from washer/dryer dude one. He said Wednesday would be fine and gave me directions. Doesn't sound tooo horribly bad, though it involves going through near-downtown Olympia.

Paul McCrane...first time I saw him was in Fame, back in the 80s...he had a whole lot of curly red hair in that movie....

Then he was a sarcastic doctor on ER, last time I watched it. (Pretty well quit watching when they made the handicapped lady a lesbian. Puh-leeze.)

Yeah, that was a STOOPID plot line. Can you say 'agenda'? I never watched "ER" that much, but that did it for me, too.

Heh...when I was a nursing student, we were doing our psych rotation and one of the things I learned was that when a psych patient would act out and try to get attention focused on them, we were to say "I'm not feeding in to your mal-adaptive behavior." and turn around and walk off. Heh heh...man, I loved that statement. You should see the perplexed look on their faces. Suddenly they didn't have an audience. I use that statement a lot, even to this day...though I may not say it outloud.

It's basically how I felt when I turned off ER.

I think it's come up before, that my mom taught adult age people with a wide range of disabilities. She taught them job skills, according to what they would be good at.

I remember being there with her, waiting for her to finish class, and there was a whole room full of students. One student started talking - shouting really - out of turn - at people who were ~not~ really there... My mom cooly said... "'Jane', you can't talk to 'them' when you are in here, you know this." The student got up, walked out, closed the door, and screamed at the top of her lungs for them to 'LEAVE HER ALONE' then she came back in a few minutes later.

I don't remember if Mom was able to help her find a job or not :~)

Yep, Paul McCrane was in "Fame" and on "ER." He was the SOB doctor who gave Elizabeth Corday a lot of grief. Towards the end of his run on the show, he lost an arm and the reattachment didn't work out well enough to allow him to continue to operate.

I'm assuming that was the end of his run. Is "ER" still on even? I have no idea. I pretty much stopped watching when Anthony Edwards left.
