The Hobbit Hole XXXII - Sweet is the sound of falling rain
The Freeper Hobbit Hole Blog ^ | December 1, 2006

Posted on 12/01/2006 12:55:15 PM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

Academic Geekiness: Highest
Movie Geekiness: Highest
Fashion Geekiness: High
Internet Geekiness: High
SciFi Geekiness: High

How Geeky Are You?
You Are 90% Left Brained, 10% Right Brained
The left side of your brain controls verbal ability, attention to detail, and reasoning.
Left brained people are good at communication and persuading others.
If you're left brained, you are likely good at math and logic.
Your left brain prefers dogs, reading, and quiet.

The right side of your brain is all about creativity and flexibility.
Daring and intuitive, right brained people see the world in their unique way.
If you're right brained, you likely have a talent for creative writing and art.
Your right brain prefers day dreaming, philosophy, and sports.
Are You Right or Left Brained?

Okay, a disclaimer--it was the weatherweenie on 710, not Gary on 980 with his always "new data". The Plaza 3--how nice!!

Well, we didn't see any aurora, but we saw a BUNCH of Geminids! Matthew and I took blankets out in the back yard, wrapped up in them and sat in lawn chairs and watched. I bet we saw a dozen in 10-15 minutes. It was fantastic!

Good morning, HH!
