The Hobbit Hole XXXV - ...is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

Posted on 01/03/2008 6:35:58 PM PST 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!

We got hail and thunder earlier, then snow, then snow and wind, the snow and sun, now we just have sun. :~)

Maybe the preferences setting are dependent on each computer.

Probably... at work, it suddenly just *changed* on it's own, when I did a refresh, a couple of days ago. I was expecting it to change at home too but it hasn't... I tried logging out and logging back in but that hasn't fixed it. I probably need to clear out the cookies or cache or something.

We got wind. Then some hail. Then some snow. Nothing here, but I hear tell of snow falling heavily about 3 miles away.
