The Hobbit Hole XXXVII - ...Down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed!

Posted on 09/25/2008 6:43:34 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!

Good morning! Glad to see a new Hole set up. I hope the previous one comes back eventually so I can get it archived...

In other news, I have an S-shaped septum.

Terrific! Did you get them from the Debby Burk site?

I got my McCain-Palin campaign signs and bling day before yesterday. I'm going to wait until we get back from our trip to put them in the front yard.

No...from zennioptical.com

Cheap. But they’re great! I can see out of them perfectly!

What does that mean? It sounds nasty.

I have no idea what that means, Bear!

Help help! We have someone using unfamiliar terms!

Well, I went to an ENT specialist this morning to see if he could find out why I have so much sinus trouble. He did a 3-D CT-scan of my head right there in his office (wouldn't have *that* under socialized medicine!) and discovered that, although my nasal septum appears normal on the outside, as it proceeds further back into my head it suddenly makes a sharp swerve to one side of my nasal cavity, then straightens out to a more normal placement again. Which would explain many of my chronic symptoms.

The ultimate solution is surgery to correct it, but he's not recommending that yet... he wants to try me out on a non-steroidal nasal spray first to see if that helps alleviate the symptoms.

Interesting.

I don’t think my pipes are connected right either, but I’ve never looked into why.

I hope the easiest solution works.

Now there’s a joke JohnRob would probably laugh at right now. Or not. Is that where you found it?

Heh, maybe I should have pinged him. No, a coworker sent it to me.

Is my room still available? I’d hate to have to run someone out...

That’s pretty amazing. I think you were one of the only ones to buy any of the homeschool stuff. I’ve taken down everything but my McCain Palin “Read My Lipstick” stuff right now.

And I’ve done over $2300 in gross sales in 3 weeks.
