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!

heh...maybe...

I think they have to be inclusive. But the good part is, they're not shying away from including Christmas. And I don't think it's ~just~ Santa.

Nothing wrong with finding out how other cultures celebrate their holidays.

The issue we had with contact info is I have most HH folk's phone numbers, but they are stored on the computer. We need to print out those things so we have them. We wanted to call someone and touch base, but we couldn't until Rose called, and Becky from the SC.

It's the little things that getcha.

I've got numbers for you, Ramius, Stinky and Ruthy plugged into my cell phone. But I think we figured out yours was the house phone.

Ordinarily the house phone number will roll to the cell phone, (and vice verse) but that failed when everything was down, so I should send you my direct cell number.

I've got yer numbers in my cell phone, but I'm not sure if your cell number is current...it dates from Entmoot.

It probably is still right. Is it a 253 area code and then a 2? Different area code from the home number?

Yes. I was going to try that number at lunch, but Rose posted news from Rosie first.

Heh... Our issue with you was that we were thinking of calling during business hours anyway... didn't really want to risk calling and trying to explain who HairOfTheDog was to Nana. ;~)

Not to worry. Nana won't answer the phone...or the door.

That's good to know...and I agree there should be a hardcopy somewhere...

I'm thinking a hardcopy in the hands of one person on the East Coast and one of the West. The likelyhood of a disaster hitting on both coasts simultaneously seems slim.

And a copy for you or someone else located in Flyover Country. If it's not a natural disaster, well... any non-natural disaster that takes out Oklahoma or Iowa as well as a coast means we're all doomed anyway.

So, you're basically thinking of an "In case of Rapture call this number list?"

Best leave it with Stinky...
