The Hobbit Hole XXXVII - ...Down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed!

Posted on 09/25/2008 6:43:34 AM PDT 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 think your computer has demons

*nods* agreed. You'll need to sacrifice a chicken and/or a goat to get it working right.

A chicken will probably suffice. The problems do not seem to rise to goat level just yet.

I knew there had to be a problem, 'cause triple 000's just don't last! LSA

Well, seriously though... have you updated Firefox recently? Howzaboot Adobe Flash player? If it's been a while for either or both of those, you might want to go download and install the latest updates.

Updating Flash player took care of the Explorer issues.

I’ve got the updates for Firefox, still having the same issue with not being able to click on certain sites/links. For example I can’t go up to the address bar and pull down sites I’ve visited.

OK... have you tried clearing the cache, cookies, temporary files, etc. in Firefox?

Try starting Firefox in safe mode. If it works in safe mode, that would point to an add-on or plugin being the culprit.

One very active hermit crab. One very dead (and therefore fragrant) hermit crab.

No mistake this time. Out of his shell in the water dish...and smelly. Very, very smelly.

Enjoy your day. It’s off to a great start.

Getting ready to hit the road here. We’re off to see Talon’s sister get hitched.

Good Morning Again!

Wake up, sleepies!

We will reach Orodruin by nightfall, and rest in Imladris on the morrow!

Say... do you still listen to Glenn Beck's radio show? This morning one of our local radio shows has been playing a clip where Beck goes berserk on a caller named Cathy, finally screaming "Get off my phone!" over and over. It was pretty funny, especially since I think the "Cathy" he was screaming at is an Austin local already known as a complete liberal idiot to all of the local radio call-in shows.

Do you know, did that episode happen recently, or was it some time ago? Or, are you not familiar with the incident? ;-)
