The Hobbit Hole XXXI - Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today!

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!

Thank you. The blog owner was less gracious. This was allegedly a conservative blog. I will not say its name here.

I'm off!

Don't know when I'll be back again...I know we plan on working on the Bug all weekend, except Sunday morning. We're going to church...at the Church Down the Street.

*contended sigh*

Evil chick is now evil again. All's right with the world.

Until tomorrow when I have to write action and figure out why someone gets assassinated and why the bad guys decide not to kill evil chick after using her for the assassination.

Ack...I can spell, really I can.

Just not after eight-thirty, that's all.

Two thoughts...

The campaign is over and I don't need to be up this late.

This little exercise is fascinating. I've doubled in value in the last two months. I don't see how I can make it pay, but I'm intrigued.


My blog is worth $22,581.60.
How much is your blog worth?

Did you say those are available for the beeeeg ones? Mine's a 3-D model.

Affirmative. Mag sells theirs for $20, and you need a particular one depending on the number of batteries in your light. The Nite Ize (I converted my three C and D Maglites) are $10, and adjust automatically for voltage.

Heh... well... we're about to go to the write-in so with luck my total will change drastically. I would love to be at 2k by the end of the weekend.

Howdy... Little do you suspect, probably, that right next door to you, one thing after another keeps going wrong.

We've had a heck of a night and morning. See the Saddle Club thread for details :~)

Can we borrow that 100 foot extension cord back from you?

So if I can write two more days' worth here at the write-in, I won't have to hate you any more.

Of course there's nobody here except me and Talon and the coffee roaster guy who is even farther behind than we are, but others are expected later. And they have awesome hot chocolate.

I just got done watching 6 seasons of Seinfeld Bloopers. My sides hurt from laughing!

You can do it. I did 7800 yesterday and little bit today on my novel... so for you, it is will be easy as pie. (That is an expression I've never understood)
