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!

I think I can get to like dwarvish humor:

[Ramius]

His name is Trevor?

How gay is that?

[RosieCotton]

I don’t think he got a vote in the matter. ;-)

[RosieCotton]

Maybe the eeeevil traffic circle committee named him.

It would fit.

[RosieCotton]

Speaking of eeevil...

[RosieCotton]

I can has 6s?

[Ramius]

667 - Across the street from the beast.

[RosieCotton]

668 - next door neighbor of the beast.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

oops, I missed it. Good catch!

I have a carbon monoxide detector...cost a fortune, but I went ahead and got one.

Our gas heater out in the shop is probably at least 70 years old. It truly is antique. When we’re working on the Beetle in the winter, I take it out there with us.

Our kerosene heater is probably from the 80s. Pretty new, actually. If we have to use it, we’ll just move the detector in there with us.

[2Jedismom]

Oh, the CO detector is battery operated.

**Put batteries on the list!

[Corin Stormhands]

heh heh...

[JenB]

It’s Friday!
Yay!

[Corin Stormhands]

All day long!

MA codes now require CO detectors on every floor, and when we sell, we have to have installed smoke alarms in every bedroom, and they have to be hard wired. We have them now, in the hallways on each floor, and next to the furnace in the basement. No problem; SirKit can do that. He even considered installing a sprinkler system for in case of fire! I think I talked him out of that, though, for this house. He can do that for ours down South. ;o)

[FrogInABlender]

I’m glad you got the table back home and didn’t get lost or run over. So what does it look like? How many chairs did it come with?

[HairOfTheDog]

Good morning Corin... :~)

Our kitties might have to go that route if I don’t get some cat food today. :~\

[RosieCotton]

I could loan you some if need be...

Heh...but I’d like to see the kittens try stalking Pony.
