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, Well 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! |

Do they maybe think you already got it?
Ungh...I've been rewriting the same thousand words for the past three days. I *have* to let it go. But it completely defines one of the two main characters, so I don't know how to.

Just finished watching "Lost", and I'll I've got to say is... that's gonna be a long hour.
To: RosieCotton
Hmmm... Lost.
I did see that coming.
But that's it for the season? What the heck? Lets hope they go back to the drawingboard with the storyline.

I'm confused by this being a season finale. Didn't it just start in October??
No spoilers, by the way - still have two hours to go here!
*fingers in ears*

I'm confused by this being a season finale. Didn't it just start in October??They're breaking it up into "Fall" and "Spring" seasons, like SciFi did with Battlestar Galactica and Stargate Atlantis a couple of seasons ago... show 10 episodes, go on hiatus, return a few months later with another 10 episodes.
"Lost" will return in February, new episodes with no repeats.
To: RosieCotton
Certainly... I'm all messed up and only just realized it was Wednesday! :~)
To: HairOfTheDog
I spent all day thinking it was Thursday.
I hate it when that happens.

Okay, just a reminder, I haven't seen LOST.
That said, this PC is driving me nuts. I can get to every option on Google ~except~ images. The page times out.
When I try to search images via Comcast, it let's me, but the images won't load.
I've run all the scans, etc. that I know to.
Thoughts?
(I'm gonna have to start all over, ain't I?)
To: Corin Stormhands
This is a really wild shot, but...any chance some program or spyware has changed your proxy settings? You can check - in IE go to Tools/Internet Options, then click on the Connections tab, and then on the LAN Settings button in the lower third of that screen. See if the "use a proxy server" box is checked - for Comcast, it shouldn't be. I'd also uncheck "Automatically detect settings" on that screen, but that's just me.
This probably isn't it, since usually incorrect proxy settings mean you can't get *anywhere*, but...

Couple more...when was the last time you reset your cable modem?
Have you changed network settings on your PC for any reason?

Uhmm, Google's down, it's not just you.
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Huh...what's going on? Part of the US bogged down?
No trouble from here...

Well, now it's working, but it wasn't for a minute. They may be having up/down issues... but in any case I would blame them rather than your setup, tonight at least.
To: RosieCotton; Corin Stormhands
Got a "cannot locate server" message when I tried to get to Google. May be something on the net in general, or with Google in particular.
To: Bear_in_RoseBear; RosieCotton
Well, Rosie's suggestions didn't work. (but thanks)
Maybe it's an image thing on Google. I'm thinking Comcast uses them as a search engine too.
But if I search for a website and it has graphics, they load. Just can't load the image search page.
I'm not going to worry about it anymore tonight.
To: Corin Stormhands
I had trouble with Google's image search page coming up, and then with Google's main page coming up. I don't think it's your system, I think it's something with either Google or the net.
'night.
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Thanks. That makes me feel better.
g'nite
To: Corin Stormhands
Good night.
