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!

Heh, good entry! I noticed that the McCain shop now has “Read My Lipstick” items. Theirs are on a black background with red lipstick, though. I like the pink color scheme, myself; less sultry, and more ‘kick a$$’ looking!

Know the feeling, however you’ll feel better once you get it behind you.

Should I sue ‘em for copyright infringement? As of about 5 p.m. I was over $800 in sales from last week. Not a bad bit of work for something I was just havin’ fun doing. And I’m adding more designs tonight.

We likely had a similar amount in as much as the bird baths were full to the rim.

Still, we would rather have an occasional tornado than the hurricanes like Ike.

I don’t think I’d like to deal with storm surge.

Nah, your design is cuter! I got an e-mail from them today, showing even MORE Palin gear! It will be fun seeing young girls and their Moms show up at McCain rallies with matching Sarah Palin t-shirts! What an excellent role model for young women; a woman who is truly successful in her own right. She didn’t get where she is because her husband was a powerful politician, nor did she sleep her way to the top.

Yup, I like the radio interview with the fella from Galveston. ‘I was going to stay but I walked to the sea wall. Waves were breaking over it and the storm hasn’t even got here yet. I’m going.’

Mornin’. We’re workin’ on stuff for the consignment sale (next Saturday). Today will likely involve at least one trip to Goodwill.

And I need to put up hay in the back yard...

Just tell the naybers, “I’m replicating the mixed short grass prairie and oak forest that were once the prevalent ecosystem in this area.” Well, it could have been. :-)

Too bad we couldn’t get it spread out a bit. Still, it beats using city water. The city hasn’t figured out a way to charge us for rainfall, yet.
