h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Oh, Pinniped!

What an incredibly moving account! I'm sure we're never given anything we're not capable of handling and probably the experience of writing this account has been cathartic for you.

It's a great entry to be on the Front Page for the launch of the Underguide.

Thanks, ZSF

Thank you Pinniped

for all the people, little and big, who are the vessels for the lessons that the rest of us need to learn.

Thought provoking and very moving.

I'm looking forward to reading more entries of theis calibre in the UnderGuide.

Thanks, Nyss. That means a lot.

*duly reminded; off to read SN again*

...and thanks Teuchter.
My hopes are high for the UG too.

Funny you should say - after reading yours, I went back and looked at mine - I had forgotten that it was you that had shared such nice thoughts. .

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Very good entry!


If you ever have to get through a tough time, so tough that you feel numb, my advice is to cry on every shoulder offered, plus a few that just look as if they might be. I can't claim the experience to substantiate the observation, but I know intuitively that the less you cry at the time, the thicker will be your shell.


I recognize that from when my father died...

Looks like this is going to stay on the front page another two weeks

Very eloquent, Pinniped. Thank you.

I wish I'd had this kind of insight after my husband died. It would have helped greatly.
