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!

Excellent choice - when I looked at the online catalog I was surprised at the number of models available.

Camo paint job you say? hmm. digital pattern? woodland? wetland? tundra? ozark? It appears the opportunities for artistic expression are almost limitless.

We'll be awaiting a full range report when you get the rifle back.

"its fer anything smaller than a deer... rodents basically 'splode..."

I need something like that for the squirrels around here. We've got foxes, but not enough, apparently. I only wish I could get a silencer for my 12 gauge.

Right now it's 58. The sun isn't shining through the room yet and I've had the space heater running on a thermostat since around 7:00.

Wow!! That's great, considering it's only about 8 degrees outside.
