Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today!

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!

Ah...I think I've seen at least the one in Lacey - sometimes I go by that corner to get on the interstate after work if I need gas.

We have a group of at least four deer making a daily/nightly trek across the property. One buck at least, that I saw.

They seem to be going along our fence on the outside, they've worn quite a path, and jumping it at some point and heading into the woods behind here. Last night someone miscalculated and got hung up in it, there was a wire all stretched out we had to fix today.

If you ever visit Austin, we'll take you out to Chuy's and let you try the Chicka-Chicka-Boom-Boom enchiladas... most excellent chicken enchiladas with a white cheese sauce on top. Very spicy though... they make my forehead sweat!

Hopefully didn't cut her up. Our loose wire was a middle one, so maybe they tried to slide through it instead of over it. It's more than six feet tall, but I've seen them clear it when they want. We have lost the top tape before... Sometimes they miss ;~).

My understanding of the situation (and I'm only going by my own admittedly faulty recollection) was that it was Sun who was infertile; that's why she said it was impossible when Jack told her she was pregnant. Now, the first season lasted 40 days in "Island time", and since her pregnancy wasn't discovered until the second season, it *could* be Jin's child.

If Sun was infertile, then she was the one who needed "healing", not Jin.

it was Sun who was infertile

I think that's what they were told at first. But then later the doctor privately told Sun that it was not her, but Jin. But he didn't want to tell Jin that, because it would be a 'dishonor' to Jin, or something like that.

What ecurbh said. It was Jin, but she told him it was her fault so his pride wouldn't be hurt or somethin'.

Ahh, ok. Still, I think enough time passed that it's still more likely to be Jin's baby rather than Bald Guy's. After all, presumably Bald Guy died at least a month or two before their trip...
