The Hobbit Hole XXX - Then world behind and home ahead...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/28/2006 10:14:11 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Then world behind and home ahead

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!

I see thunderstorms around the area in that image... that's probably what they were waiting for.

Well, she can just sit there thinking pure thoughts while he snatches her kid, but excuse me...I gotta put a boot in his ass.

Girl, I like the way you think!

Well, there you go.

I once found a dead crawdad when I was a kid and dissected it to find out what killed it. Used the dissecting kit that my folks got for my brother.

Never found out the COD though...

It is an appropriate thread name for Ruthy and Ramius's new adventure!

Something tells me that YOU would've died if it'd been a rabbit. ;o)

Speaking of keeping the receipt...

Wife just left the Verizon store. Her phone has officially died. We knew that with our contract we could upgrade on July 10, so she was just going to reprogram one of the old (first model) phones to use until then.

Store guy tells her that since I'm the primary person on the contract that I couldn't upgrade until July 10, but SHE could have upgraded in February 2005. Go figger. I don't know how that works.

But I still have to go into the store. We're gonna upgrade her to a crackberry and blue tooth tomorrow. She needs 'em for work. Then I'll go back in on July 10 and upgrade mine. That'll work 'cause the deal will give us two free phones. We can give one to Nana, one to Jr.

Nana's phone has died and Jr's is severely ill.

So, there's that.

I'm eligible for an upgrade in about six months. Which'll leave me with a really nice phone I don't need.

Fun.

I guess concerning how things have worked out, it won't hurt to have a backup, but...

One of these days I'm going to get me a phone.

For a long time, Steve had a cellphone with unlimited minutes, provided for his job but then he was promoted and the new job didn't come with a phone. Then, my parents put me on their plan but I'm naturally not on that anymore.

If it wasn't for 911, we'd drop our land line and just use the cell phones. We've already dropped our long distance carrier.

Steve told me a joke yesterday...

A priest, a rabbi and an Imam went into a bar. The bartender said "What is this, some kind of joke?"

Ha haha ha!!!
