The Hobbit Hole XXXIV - But better than rain or rippling streams...

Posted on 08/07/2007 7:52:15 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

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!

Isn’t it wonderful to have friends who know folks who can do stuff? That’s great news about Steve’s truck!

I could walk her in there and point it out and she’ll eat and be happy as a clam for about five minutes. That is, until she comes back in here and is once again convinced that I’ve never fed her today and her bowl must be empty, and why am I not doing anything about it???

Uh, can Siamese cats get Alzheimer's? ;o)

We’re hoping to have him come out in the spring for a little target practice if possible and I’ll see if that isn’t the time. I’m not sure when he’s actually going into the program (probably next fall) so I’ll let you know when it seems nice and appropriate :)

Thanks. You’re awesome.

Yes, indeedy! My observation is that Becky and Mack know EVERYONE who’s anyone in town. When I found out the truck was gonna cost a thousand bucks, after the initial exclamations of panic and dismay, I thought...”I’m just gonna mention this to Becky.” Sure enough, they knew just who to put me in contact with.

The guy that fixed the truck told Steve that he had a bandanna sticking out of his pocket, kinda hanging down. He was looking in the front of the truck while it was on and noticed that the bandanna wasn’t moving. It should’ve sucked toward the front of the truck a bit. So he looked and that is when he noticed the fan clutch was messed up.

How are you doing?

Good morning from here... Socked in thick with fog.
