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!

Speaking of which...I have two nieces on the way!

Yaaay! I celebrated youngest nephew's 2nd b-day with his fam today. He's their #3 child, but already a master manipulator. He gets the older two fighting with each other (and in trouble w/ mom & dad...) so he can play with the toys all by himself. Kudos to the little guy!

I should make ‘em each *something*, though likely I’ll cop out and use this one again:,

Itsah nice pattern. Any pattern stitch done in a square makes a nice blankie. 'Specially if you edge it with that wide satin binding.

Well, we know Lil’ is brilliant.

Aw shucks. Re McCain's camp, he has someone on board with a delicious, wicket sense of humor. We've long assumed they have someone who's ex-military because we've seen evidence of military tactics. Might be the same guy. Very effective.

The Dems have long touted themselves to be the 'progressive' party that would bring about momentous changes in American politics, and it just GALLS them that the old fart McCain has blown that opportunity out of the water.

I think it galls them that our gal is hotter (haawwwtter) than their gal. McCain might get a little more of the man-vote than he otherwise would have. ;P

I'm having a great weekend! Hope you are, too!

Well, the Windows system we build will have local and network storage, along with external drives that move from system to system. It's time I started designing the thing ...

At least Shep hasn’t started crying yet.

Oh yes! My weekend has been SUPERB! I had a rough two weeks at work and am VERY grateful for the break! Your Windows system sounds KILLER. Overkill on memory, storage and bandwidth is always a good thing in the end. :-)

Happy Labor Day Rose! :-)

Yup, they're a definite oddity. The ammo was made at Dominion Arsenal, Quebec in 1963. It's been mellowing all these years, and still goes bang like the impertinent new ammo that has not yet acquired any complexity or nuance.

Isn’t this something? I’d think the people in Florida would be insulted that their hurricanes don’t rate this.

Good morning!
