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!

Weirdoes = everyone on staff. Including us. Some of them more weird though.

Although the goth couple I saw at the con this year really took the cake for weird. Not because of themselves but because of their little goth baby. Poor kid had spiky hair and a spiked collar and was barely crawling age.

The few goths at the college didn't strike me as very friendly critters, which is why it's hard to grasp. ;-)

Yes!

(How did I miss this?)

They have to be very 1960ish...we had them when I was very young.

I'll look at Target...who knows, maybe they'll come back into style.

I miss them. I always knew it was Christmas when I saw them, and lately, I could use something to help me get into the spirit...

What is happening to me? I'm making presents for folks and designing labels and even thinking of putting bows and ribbon on the presents.

Smoking cheese to give as gifts, low temps outside are perfect.

The label: http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/1384/bettercheddaril1.gif

Takin' Tam to the vet this morning if I can get my act together. I meant to go early enough to be there when they opened, but that isn't gonna happen, obviously.

His eye is acting up again, poor baby.
