Asteroid Lil - Offstage Presence Posted Apr 22, 2000
*trudges in carrying cage containing unattractive miniature 3-toed sloth hanging from perch, asleep*
Hi y'all. This is my ISP, what has kept me offline for nearly 24 hours. Say hello, Mindspring!
*snoring sound from Mindspring*
It's not as if I need another pet, either, but it looks like I really need to keep an eye on it. Apparently it does tricks. Anychance we could put it in a corner, Irv? Let the custies feed it coffee and donuts -- maybe that will get its ass in gear.
I reallyreallyreally need an Asteroid Lil special.
Why is Affy so surprised to learn that there are computers in Florida?

Irving Washington - Gone Writing Posted Apr 22, 2000
There's a difference between computers in florida, and computers that he personally can use to access H2G2 with.
Sure, put Mindspring over there, next to the IIEM (I hope I'm not asking for trouble)

*rueful* I heard that, all right.
*puts Mindspring's cage on hook on wall near IIEM. Mindspring continues to sleep*
There. He won't take up any counter space that way.
*sips coffee*
I see we've had some interesting new people come in today! I hope they come back. And I always seem to just miss Joanna.

Ioreth (on hiatus) Posted Apr 22, 2000
Me too!
Strange company. I think that on this holy weekend I too shall take a nap... after a large anticoffee.
I've been contemplating a name change... I want to be called Bean. What do you think? *glances about nervously*

J'au-æmne Posted Apr 22, 2000
St Ioreth of Bean?
I kinda like Ioreth, personally.
*Joanna goes and has a look at Mindscape... and tries (successfully) to resist the temptation to poke it*
Sorry to keep not being here, Lil!

Ioreth (on hiatus) Posted Apr 22, 2000
Oh no, not him again.
I didn't even like any of the books. Well the first one was ok, but the rest.... waste of time.
Yum
J'au-æmne Posted Apr 22, 2000
Ermm... I don't think so.. or rather since I don't know what you're talking about I'd guess not..
*looks confused*
[note for Mindscape read Mindspring]

Well met at last! Hi Joanna.
*rattles Mindspring's cage just a little bit*
*Mindspring moves a little*
I was told it tapdances and does highwire acts, but all I've seen it do so far is eat part of a donut and sleep.
*soft snoring noise from Mindspring*

I'll put the link up . . but right now I'm being lazy. You'll see that I have, however, just gone and signed the petition

Greetings, all. Just woke up from 3 hour nap after persuading sprogs that their Mummy and Daddy don't let them stay up to watch TV until the screen shrinks into a little dot and then disappears into the little hole down the middle.
My God, girls are even more exhausting than boys. No wonder I stay uninterested in them until puberty; I would have aged even faster than I am doing at the moment. (i hope you know what I mean........the brain's not quite in gear)

Irving Washington - Gone Writing Posted Apr 22, 2000
It'd woulda maid more sense as "Stayed uninterested" but, yes, we get the picture.
