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!
Big'ol had a birthday this week and I surprised him with a ukelele.
Long story. :D
The weeks just seem to zip on by....
What planet are you on?
Planet Earth, or so they say. Or maybe my sense of space and time is just off.
Do you have a friend named Desmond?
Okay people, get LOST watched. We need to talk.
(who else should be on this list?)
Nope.
Yeah - I’m assuming rosie you didn’t watch it last night? We didn’t... we went to bed. It’s still on at 10 here.
Wanna watch it tonight?
Sure!
Yeah, I didn’t watch it...thought about it, but chickened out. ;-) That’s just too durned late!
OK - I’ll get cats in an be ready by the time you and ecurbh get home and want to do it... maybe we can do the pizza thing this week and have it work!
Sounds like a plan. ;-)
Mmm...pizza...
You guys OK down there with these tornados?
I’m ok...I worked till 11:30pm last night so I’m still not sure where they even hit. I think northwest of me...
I just got up so I having read anything or even turned on the TV...
Well... good to hear from you and Becky... I’m not sure where the damage they’re showing is. Gladstone MO?
Soon!
Hopefully this week something actually *happens*... Last week was kind of a filler episode, seemed like. Just to get us from one point to another.
Here comes our economic stimulus money!!!!!!!
.

And there it went.
:-)
And that's all I'm sayin'.
But there's hope that we'll get the suspension in the federal gas tax. Let's see...
I figure $0.18 per gallon, with a 27 gallon capacity in my truck=$4.86.
Multiply that by (roughly) 12 weeks of summer = $58.32.
We're buying a second home...for the cat.
Seriesly, I'm tired of stimulus gimmicks. Sure the cash back is nice, but it would be nicer never to have to owe that money in the first place.
Amen.
