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!

Nice job on getting 11,111 post. It had ‘Bear’ written all over it.

Good Evening, fellow Middle-Earth Denizens!
I had posted a birthday post here tonight, but more than happy to visit the Hole, as well!
So, let's have a drink - after all, it comes in pints...

Thanks! :-) I'm glad I decided to spam for it, before the thread was closed.

You can say that again...

Why didn’t they wear Hobbitses’ costums?

I think it’s hard to explain to the aunts and grandmothers ;~)

I’m not getting errors, but the forum is crawling - must be all the Iowa traffic tonight.

Is it a FR issue or something wrong with the images on the thread?
To: HairOfTheDog
I’m watching that smarmy, fake, two bit, ambulance chasing, phoney, J. Edwards. I’m about to puke.
But hello to all anyway, thanks for the ping.

Probably a FR issue, nothing wrong with the thread.

It’s not an image error...it’s one of those errors that FR does sometimes when it’s busy or messed up. Hence my double post. ;-)

Same thing happening here. Hillary is on Fox blabbing right now - probably her fault.

I'll have to wait until next month to toast the good professor. Can't drink with my meds. ;o)
What a great picture to use for the new thread!

Well, I’m here.
Just finished watching Virginia Tech lose to Kansas. At least, contrary to what Mike Huckabee said, it wasn’t boring.
