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!

Oh, I hadn't checked my ping list and so didn't see it until you mentioned it.

The UT changes every month, to avoid threads like the original where it hit the limit of 65534. For May we will be one the 2 millionth thread.

If you say so...
And that was another important one. Maybe I would not have risked the embarrassment if you had not spoiled the answer ;-D

That’s awful cute...

However, I’m a little unhappy with my own cats this morning. Anyone want a slightly used and soon-to-be dented Siamese?

He doesn’t appear to have an off switch, and he’s being awfully loud.

We’re going to a Japanese steakhouse in town. It should be good.

Heh...think it’d work?

The sad thing is...after the last couple of nights, I’m looking at that price and thinking...”Hm, that’s not toooo bad. Wonder if it’d work?”

I think he’s upset that there are possums or something like that under the house, and I’m not doing anything about it at three AM.

We just wired our backyard with more electronic fence (previously just had the gap between the garage and driveway blocked. The dogs haven’t quite figured out where they can’t go and are slightly neurotic...
