The Hobbit Hole XXXV - ...is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

Posted on 01/03/2008 6:35:58 PM PST 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’m home. It was really really nice. Very upbeat. A celebration.

She’s having a gathering at The Office, so I’m going to that now, but wanted to swing by and check on the boys.

I took it again and changed “I know my way around the Internet” to “I can design a website” and got Ben.
...
Yah, I got my Ben my first time through, and gave up on it after that.

Y'all need to embrace your inner Benry.

If there was a page-a-day calendar for LOL cats, I'd buy three.

LOL cats. I heart them.

I took it yesterday and I was Sayid. This morning I took it and I was Ben. I took it just now and I’m Locke.

No wonder I’m like this. It all makes sense now.

I would too. I always buy the 365 Cats page-a-day calendar every year and they're not near as good as they used to be, so an LOL Cats calendar sounds like a prime business opportunity for them to me.

Thank you, Master Seaman! And how fare thee this eve?

Mark Steyn is a wonder. Have you seen how the Canadians are treating him now? Disgraceful kangaroo courts.

The pipes probably froze solid, we had that happen several times in Ohio.

I stopped on the way to the feed store and checked on my chicken. She’s doing very well, she was in the coop with the others for the night. I didn’t go see close, but there’s only one red chicken there so she stood out in the crowd ;~)

I talked to the owner, who hadn’t been there when I dropped her off... only workers. I said “I’m the one who dropped off the red chicken last week” “Oh yeah” “Was she reasonably welcome here? I’ve just been wondering ever since if she was OK here and welcome” he said “Oh sure, she’s been just fine, roaming all over the place, and going back in the coop at night”

So that’s good :~)
