The Hobbit Hole XV - Pass them by! Pass them by!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 09/02/2004 2:18:28 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Pass them by! Pass them by!

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

The closest I got to getting in trouble was by saying "neurotic". ;-)

Hopefully not, but I hear from the local news that a high pressure system to the north may keep Jeanne from turning north as earlier predicted.

Oh boy.

That's... odd; all the Dems I know locally are very depressed because they've given up on CO already. In fact I noted just today several yards with "Bush/Cheney" signs, and also signs for the Dem senate candidate... am going to have to check this out more thoroughly but I thought CO was a solid Republican state.

I like "adhesive!" the best... :-)

Howdy howdy there evellybody. [sip]

Have I commented lately on how big a pain in the @$$ Sorbanes-Oxley is? I do not understand why this isn't getting headlines. Every publicly-traded company is affected by it, and disastrously so. [sip]

But for the moment I be free fum dat massa bob. Nothing further till 8 oftheclock tomorrow when it begins anew. [sip].

So... did I miss anything? saw something about kilts. didn't tarry there.

As I recall Colorado has been pretty solidly dem for years now... especially enclaves like Boulder [shudder]. Dunno what effect Denver has.

In fact, in Boulder I think it is actually illegal to be a republican. :-) [sip]

Colorado went for Bush in 2000.

It may be like here (well, not quite so much), but where there are regions that are steadfastly Republican while others are pretty liberal.

And colleges tend to skew results too, for that matter. Lotta liberals connected with colleges and universities.

Latest images from NHC have Jeanne landing on Hilton Head, SC.

But I don't know what the remnants of Ivan will do. They have him hitting KY/VA and then veering back to the southeast.

Hi Ramius!

One more day til the weekend! YIPPEE!

Our entire software platform has been taken down to prepare for the conversion to the new platform on Sunday. Everyone has to work Sunday afternoon to be sure the new software works.

*fingers crossed*

At least, that means tomorrow will be easy since we can't do anything except answer phones. :D

Why can't these hurricanes just veer back into the Atlantic like they normally do every year?

Really? I stand corrected then.

There are plenty of good things left in Colorado. Notable among them is Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell, pictured below, in perhaps the cutest President-with-baby picture ever captured on film:

I think "generally" you may be right. Especially when you consider areas like Aspen...

ANTI BUSH BUSINESS SITE

kristie@spymac.com

webmaster@spymac.com


To kick off the new Spymac Newsletter and its distribution, Spymac is

offering its first-class email service, MailPro, for a discounted price

of $14.99 until September 22, 2004. MailPro includes a 3 GB inbox

accessible via POP, IMAP or the Web, 20 MB attachments, and exacting

SPAM and Virus filters. The $14.99 will get you MailPro for an entire

A friend told me that spymac hates conservative
posters in their political forum

So I'm joining in the boycott of liberal business sites.

This e-mail was sent by a friend.

I'm fowarding it on.

A business site has no business dealing in
stopping free speech!

You are going to lose a ton of business from conservatives!
