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!
X-Files before or after it turned into an ongoing alien conspiracy story instead of individual investigations of weird happenings?
I would have liked the later episodes better if I’d never seen the earlier ones, I think. I’ve yet to see the really late ones, ‘cause I was annoyed with the changes.
I agree! The Walter Bishop character (Denethor) is an interesting guy!
Oh, that could be HUGH! ;o)
Hey guess what!
My mom was just worried to death earlier about my aunt, who is very elderly and has parkinsons and is in a nursing home in Brazoria County which is being evacuated. Mom didn’t know where they were going to take her.
She just found out!
They are taking her to St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic church in College Station...the same town my mom lives in!!
Good ol’ Catholics!!
(How does one pronounce Aquinas?. My mom says it’s pronounced “Uh-quine-us”. I am thinking “Uh-keen-us”.)
Great news on your aunt’s relocation to College Station. And yes, go with your Mom’s pronunciation.
We caught up with it on TiVO (just back from anudder busyness trip) and it was just aw’ight. It won’t last two seasons.
I’ve always heard it Uh-quine-us or Aaah-quine-us
So I was tromping around some of g’nad’s old tromping grounds just south of the Logic Free Zone and during our working lunch, got to chatting with a fella who was in the gallery during Gen. Patraeus’ testimony to Congress. No only was he in the gallery, he was seated in front of some of the Code Pinkos. Having never encountered their ilk before, he was (and continues to be) completely freaked out by the shrieking. Poor guy
Hmm, they're already starting contraflow on I-37 out of Corpus Christi tomorrow morning.
Well they still think you may get a Cat 2. Never been in one of those myself. Avoid Live Oaks.
Not so good for the Aggies!
Your Mom’s right, if the town is named after St. Thomas Aquinas. But then, them Texans sometimes do strange things with names. ;o)
Sarah's supporters should take some Miss Piggy puppets to Sarah gatherings with signs that say that! Throw it right back in Obama's face, but with a smile!
We’ll have to give David a head’s up! He gets so into his work, he may not even be aware that the storm is coming his way!
Eeeeek! Stay safe!
