The Hobbit Hole XXXVI - O! Water cold we may pour at need...

Posted on 05/03/2008 8:48:06 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!

And these?

Mostly hung out playing tunes and chatting with a guy who was in my roommates class, and listening to another guy who was settin’ on the porch playing guitar until late. Good times...

Sounds like you had a great vacation.

We’re going to visit my folks for the 4th of July weekend and Talon’s over Labor Day but that’s all we have for vacations this summer. But we’re driving to both so we’ll see the country on the way. The pups are coming to my folks’ but for the Texas trip, it’s a family reunion at a state park that doesn’t allow dogs.

Um...well, the guy I was mostly talking to is 32 and single, but I don’t think he’s Catholic or even particularly Christian. A gentleman, though, nonetheless. Lot of that going around there. Like I said, a very nice group of folks.

Okay, o wise ones ... I've not been around a lot lately, and I missed some stuff, I think.

What's EBR stand for? ERT?

And, Ramius, if you don't mind my asking you to repeat yourself, where did you get the pretty little ASP? (I went to the wrong site, I think ... they had gold-plated ones!)

Yep, right now I'm buying it from a friend for $7 a gallon. I've been buying a gallon a week from her and then supplementing with store bought. Thegirl wants to have milk goats...I think it would be good, but we've got to fence in part of the pasture and build a shed of some kind for them...and then there is the convincing of the man...

Technically he could be listed as the “second blur that runs really fast behind Paul Giamati after the first battle scene...”

Well, now we know where to look for him!
