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!

Ugh, I got a work call right as the second episode was starting. Apparently the web host upgraded either PHP or MySQL and the site was broken. Only needed to add some parentheses to fix it, but it took me over an hour to figure out where to add them.

But at least I get to bill for that hour, so there's that.

tagline test (it may be too long)

some may recognize the correct answer to "what is good in life?"

Found over on the FReeper canteen Valentine thread:

"I love you" in Japanese is Ai shite imasu

looks to me like an exclamation of disgust at finding an undesirable substance in the wasabi.

"Ai, shite! Imasu!"

teeheee.

My flight was cancelled, I'm rebooked on a flight later this afternoon. But the weather is going to be worse this afternoon. I'm not optimistic.

Not too much snow here... an inch or so... just enough to make the drive to work fun I'm sure.

Good!

I'm sipping my second cup of coffee and enjoying a Nutragrain bar.

Speaking of global warming, did you guys see the global warming ad during 24 with the little girl in front of the train?

That's really $%*&#* &*! :\
