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

Well, past my bed time. I'll see you tomorrow.

Bye. *waves*

Hi Lil,
Crumbs Chief, a DM fan? Liked the picture.
Used to watch it...about 17 years ago!

G'Night, Witty...Lil. thanks. I for one would love to stop by!

*reluctantly heads for the door*

Take it easy, B17. eatsmice-see you later!

Ciao, Witty, ox. Be excellent to one another.
Coohoo EM (like DM only, er, not )
Hey EM, where abouts are you doing nightsift? Locale only, p.o.w. not required (confidentiality and all that)

Gotta be careful here B17
believe I'm in the same boat as you,
Check my page for locale,
4am and 5 hours to go!

*jingle-ling*
Evening (your appropriate time referenced salutation here) all.

B-17, a cuppa regly ol Mr. Coffee, please.

Looks like you've been pretty busy. Lot of newer faces, too. Good!

*heads for open space on couch*

May need to ask Lil to follow up on that couch she saw a bit back. Seems as though could use the enhanced seating capacity. Might even check w/Odra, no telling what she has in her backpack. I know she has an ottoman, at the very least.

Ah well met jr52. One regular Joe comming up
----------> c(")
Certainly ain't been quiet anyroad.
Right EM, will get back to you in a mo.

Hi jr,
nother coffee please B17
*saunters outside to check on state of sun, which is now on its way upwards but hidden by cloud*
Dry and cloudy up here B17

Ho, EM.
Took your directions to B17 myself (finally got thu the log) and skipped over to your place. From your moniker, I was unsure if you were a cat or a snake. Glad to know the difference, now. Have three of the furry rascals in our house. Between dogs a.t.t. (8 years, or is it 56 years? never seem to get that straight).

Happened to be thumbing thru the printed word and ran across a tidbit.

The word slogan comes from Scottish words for army and yell. What a co ink e dink. eh.

Thanks, B17. *settles further into couch*
*sips coffee* ahhhh. Life is good.

*comes back in mumbling and ticking off fingers*

It was fun doing a small bash for Ioreth here at the Cafe because everything was already to hand, but this is the first time I've thrown a bash at my place, and Quorthon is family. eatsmice, I hope you can stop by tomorrow. Have you ever been to my gallery?

B17, just jr, if you please.

When I first got here I used the full name , jr1952. Then it seemed inappropriate to go by full name so dropped middle one. Left it at jr52 to avoid bumping heads for names but, IRL a goodly portion of my friends do call me jr.

------> c(~) for em.
One green tea for Lil ------> c("), because you could use it, methinks.

Hey jr52
my two beasties will be curled up where I should be now.
*sips coffee and longs for bed*
But can't think of a better place to hang out in the meantime

Evening, Lil.

BTW, are you one of those people that never sleep? Or, are you a group of entities going by one name?

*Alters jr52 to jr*
Just a quick root around Lil, but will pay more attention to it when I get home.
Off tomorrow night (oops tonight my time) so will aim to be around then.

Works for me, EM. My Bride of more years than she cares to think about has some doubts, tho. She is somewhat chagrined and even a little dismayed th find there r others out there that think like I do.

*shkes out paper* Think I'll catch up on the safari.

This has been a strange year. When I had pneumonia, which was off and on through the middle of June, I was only able to sleep about 3 hours at a time. So I would log off near midnight, sleep until the coughing started, then log on again between 3 or 4 am and be there to meet the Brits for breakfast. Now I sleep fine, but have gotten accustomed to having the notebook here on the dining table, so I log on for breakfast! And then I come on again when the Brit offpeak time starts, and then come on a 3rd time late in the evening. Now.

While I was sick, though, having online friends and these virtual places to hang out kept me focussed and free of panic.

Don't panic
BTW Lil, Offpeak is just about dead in the UK now
Have got 24/7 free call access for only £5 per month
My insomnia is no longer a problem
You're gonna need caffiene injections

Is it really? Well that will be the thing that gets a lot of my old friends in England online at last.

And I'm here about half an hour longer. Babel, are you going to make the new thread?

yep, give me 10 mins.
Running shoes at the ready guys......
