The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Journey to the Cross-roads

The Two Towers Edition

Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)

Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

Morning!

Velveeta

No, lecithin (sp?- it's early). Velveeta is made of plastic.

I'm at work and I'm exhausted. Had a great night sleep but can't keep my eyes open. Probably because it is so gray and dreary and drizzley. Might have to put on some raucus music in a bit.

Read a SARS article this morning that traced an outbreak through an apartment building starting with one sick guy's sewage and leaky plumbing. Sounds like China could stand to use some phosphlipids now and again.

China could use a few barns for the livestock too!

So it's not strictly an airborne thing anymore?

That's my current project. It's something you spray on grain crops to protect them from herbicides.

I got the impression from the article that there was something in the raw sewage spreading the disease- either it mingling in the freshwater somehow or folks contacting the muck directly. I've heard of bacterial diseases spreading that way but not of viruses. Of course I don't know much about epidemiology or virology. But then, coming from China- who knows?

Oh, OK. Thought it might be another emulsifier.

But then again...there's no telling what they're picking up from that raw sewage.

Coprohagy.

BTW, when's breakfast?

I should be thinking about work...and actually DOING work, for that matter. I'm stalling.

And bow shopping.
