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!

I DVD'd last night's convention activity, though I was watching live through Sen Thompson's speech (recommend!).

I understand Sen Lieberman gave a good one as well...I'll hear it eventually.

Lieberman was okay. IMHO would’ve been better to have him go before Fred. But he made some good points and a strong appeal to Democrats to vote for McCain.

In other news...there’s too much blood in my caffeine system...

Heh...from Palin Facts

Little known fact about Sarah Palin: Sarah Palin knows what The Ultimate Question is (i.e the one whose answer is 42)

Heh...

Looks like there’s some other pretty funny stuff there...I’ll have to check back on it later. When I’m caffeinated and stuff.

Mornin’, all.

Good morning!

I really liked being 42. I recall thinking to myself “Man, I'm gonna cruise through this phase of my life without a hitch!”

HA HA HAH!

~hmph~

Anyway...I'm doing good. I've accepted the vision situation as permanent and am enjoying shopping for cheap glasses on Zenni. My CT scan is Monday afternoon.

We're getting new phones. Went with the ATT Family Talk plan. My understanding is if you have Cingular/ATT, I can talk to you for no extra charge.

Matthew got a blue RAZR. I got this one:

It makes me feel like singing "Perfect Day" and going out and buying toenail polish to match. That's ok.

Steve's is just like mine 'cept black.

Our old Virgin Mobile pay as you go phones are slap wore out and I once figured up that we were spending about the same amount this plan is costing and we were constantly trying "not" to use the phone!

Makes me want to haul out all my feminist texts from college and get up on a soap box and start ranting about double standards.

It would fall on deaf ears because conservatives are the only ones who have those, dontcha know.

When we got new phones, I got the Motorola RAZR, ‘cept in light purple! It’s a cool color! I got an accessories package to go along with it that included a light purple silicone cover for the phone, as well as a car charger in the same color. The cover is terrific, because it keeps the phone from sliding around on smooth surfaces. I can put the phone on the dashboard of my car, leave it there, and it just kinda adheres to the surface. It also keeps it from slipping out of my hand or the outside pocket of my purse.

Only.....Captain Cook wasn’t a pirate.

How about Captain Morgan?

When I was a small child, living in Anchorage, going to dinner at the “Captain Cook” was a special treat.
