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!
Troublemaker....
Looks like you found that thread wrongly put in the HH topic and got it out. I kept getting annoyed by it.
Just doin’ muh job...
If this rain keeps up we’ll be able to have cranberry bogs right here in Kansas City! We got Jackson situated in the basement about 10:00, food, water, bed, litterbox-everything set. I made the mistake of looking out the front door about 10:30 to check on the rain, and dang if the little kitten wasn’t back on the porch, screaming his/her head off.
He/she got thrown in the downstairs bathroom with food, water, a couple of bath towels for a bed, and a litter box made out of a kitty litter box with the side cut out and the lid taped shut. I’m going to get in touch with #2 manager this morning and get the kitten back home, and help the #2 manager figure out how to keep the dang kitten in the apartment.
Annie and Gypsy are being troopers about the whole situation, but this kitten will just not stop howling!!!
So my brother is deploying to Iraq in September. He’s coming to visit today for ten days before he leaves for his pre-deployment training... should be a paper pusher in Baghdad...
Tap Tap Tap...
‘S this thing on?
You’ve been hangin’ out with Hair too long...
Wow. Tell him thanks. And we’ll send him stuff.
But I can’t grasp the concept of one of your bothers being that old.
Poor little sweet thing! :~)
I’m with Corin! Time sure flies, I can’t imagine your brothers are old enough either.
All the best to him over there. We hope you’ll post on what he reports.
Hopefully by the time you get home, we’ll actually have water...
We had the grass skirts and coconuts...
Long time no funkle... :~)
I was afraid I’d get cold.
The kitten must like your food better. :)
Just open a new branch of Wayside Waifs.
He’s 20, actually, and taking a year off college to do this. He’s working on either EE or computer engineering or both, depending on whether he can get the course schedule he needs when he gets back.
He isn’t getting there til September and then he’s there for nine months so it should be interesting.
Yeah, was gonna post about that, but I couldn’t get on. There was a trickle at five when I got up, but not much. I ended up letting it trickle into a bucket and used that for washing up. Wasn’t any way I’d get enough pressure to take a shower.
Do they know what’s going on? Did someone drive over a pipe again or what?
Yah...no kidding. Good for him, though!
I think you guys must have one of those invisible “Lost Animals Check-in Here” signs, like Hair....
Paper pusher or not, he's earned something from our leet Hobbit Hole stash. Please freepmail me on suggestions for him.
