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! |

Yeah...there was a tree across the road and the power lines over by the truck stop. Roads are blocked off in various places. Couldn't get home for awhile.
Ungh.

I still want to get one for my brother Jim for Christmas...dunno if I can justify it, but I KNOW he'd love it.
Haven't written today, except notes. I've thought of a plausible reason for bad guy 2 to want good guy 2 dead, but still no motive for good guy 2's wife to be in on the plot.
So there's that.

Ugh - really! Well, when it got nasty, the power went out and we were babysitting Cyn, so we couldn't got get Cisco. I bet the poor urchin was happy to see you!
To: RosieCotton
At least it's not at Evergreen... I've heard the play is popular in certain 'alternate' types of clubs.
To: HairOfTheDog
It just sounds like a bad idea all 'round.
I mean...the original was a bad idea. ;-) No need to prolong the horror...

He was pleased. And mostly dry. ;-) Now he's had dinner and has his rubber bone, so he's a very happy dog.
How's Cyn?

The original was a work of art... the knockoffs just can't be as good :~)
To: RosieCotton
Cyn's OK, we're just all a little jumpy.
To: RosieCotton
It's very, very cool. Three missles, angle and altitude control, and they fire one at a time with apppropriate noises. Mwahahaha
So a new expansion to this "constructible card game" Pirates game Talon and I have been playing came out and the dude at the gaming store managed to sell us a whole box. Of 36 packs. It made sense since we're giving these to brothers and nephews for Christmas. But we ended up having to open about 20 packs in order to get one submarine which is the cool new thing.
It really is a cool game but it's hard to describe without seeing it.

Y'all just need to move to the East Cost where we don't have any of those storm type problems...

Yep, you need a Missle Launcher! Think Geek calls it a WMD-Weapon of Much Distraction. LOL!
