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!

Acid trips explain a lot...

[HairOfTheDog]

If you're on acid, it probably even makes sense. :~)

I like the deliberate nonsense for the prof part. "Let the &%$#*! figure that out". Cheeky!

[JenB]

That looks like the scenic route all right. Hmmm.... "you can't get there from here".

[ExGeeEye]

Good Morning! It's Friday!

[Lil'freeper]

No... the ads for it scared us. :P

It's soooooooo funny! The 'winner' gets to have his/her character in a comic book by Stan Lee and the lead in a SciFi Saturday Nite Movie. *snork*

[Corin Stormhands]

Out on Friday with a bunch of chicks from church... sounds pretty raucous.

[Corin Stormhands]

I quilt it...

[ecurbh]

~yawn~ I'm up, I'm up...

[RMDupree]

Me too. Been up for an hour already.

Need....more.....cafe con leche.....

[Corin Stormhands]

My 30th High School reunion is tomorrow night. I have to lose 50 lbs. in the next 24 hours...

[ecurbh]

You can do it, but it's gonna take... A Montage!

[RosieCotton]

Heh...

[RMDupree]

Jack Bauer could do it.

Jack Bauer needs no montage. :-)

(We're almost done with disc 3 of 24-Season One)

[RosieCotton]

I'm thinkin' that'd be the most far-fetched 24 premise yet...

[HairOfTheDog]

I'm great... despite the fact that a gallon of water rudely leaped off the counter and on to the floor, for no reason, this morning...

[ecurbh]

I think it was a gravitational anomaly. Or a wrinkle in the space-time continuum.

[RMDupree]

What the....?

[RMDupree]

Do not doubt the power
Of Mister Jack Bauer

My 30th High School reunion is tomorrow night. I have to lose 50 lbs. in the next 24 hours...

*snort* My 35th would be this year, if anyone is planning one. We'll be down there, if they have it in Nov. or Dec. That would give me time to lose, oh, 10 pounds or so, at the rate I'm going.

I haven't been to one yet, cause we've always lived away from MS, and they had them at times that were inconvenient for me to attend. I'd kinda like to go, but I'll definitely need to read folks' name tags; I haven't seen most of them since we graduated!

[HairOfTheDog]

Only explanation that makes any sense is gravity waves. :~)
