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 need to watch a couple of seasons of TNG so I can work on an English accent.

Morning!

Does your painter guy do siding repair too? Just asking. That’s going to be the next money-sucking project.

*Sigh* Miss Cat licked the ricotta right off my toast.

Hey - If you’re around later, and we aren’t back yet, could you pop over around midday and let the dogs out to run and pee?

We’re headed up to maybe buy a camp trailer. It might be a short trip, it might be a long trip.

We’ll have Barkley with us, the two ferals should be in the cage, Wicket will be in, don’t let her out, as she’s learned to like to rush the door. The other cats can be wherever they want to be.

We’d appreciate it!

...maybe buy a camp trailer...

Tornado bait! :-)

Heh... kidding. Sounds like an interesting idea. And useful, too.

Don’t think our painter does siding. He’s got a good gig going with just painting. You are right siding repair can be pricey.

Can you add me to your Sword Pron list? Thanks.

Taking a break from the garage. I have the front cab of the truck full of stuff for Goodwill and the back is full of crap. In some cases, literally.

We’ve got a rat. He’s managed to chew through a bag of grass seed and potting soil (and spread them all over the place). And he managed to chew through the plastic bag that held...the rat traps.

I found the hunnert and fifty dollar graphing calculator that Jr’s 9th grade math teacher insisted he have...and that Jr. never used. I’d be willing to bet somewhere on one of these threads I b****ed about having to buy it.

I’m removing the carpet from the basement stairs, sanding away the stuff, and repainting them so we can put down a new runner. Talon’s doing crack repair and roof tarring. But it’s break time now.

OK...if you get back before twelve thirty or so, post and let me know...otherwise I’ll head over there for a bit.

What’s the camp trailer for?

Modern marketing, providing all the experiences of home gardening, without all the work:

cat
more animals

The ultimate in convenience foods.

Heh, that is multi-tasking all right. The Kansas Lottery Commission awarded Speedway/Cordish the license for the Casino at the Nascar. Guess you’ll be able pull the levers and watch the third turn at the same time. That’ll be multitasking as well. :-)
