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

manys the person that walks round a room, not knowing it's square

indeed it is so but if you dont step in the corners perhaps its ok

but you could be facing East and the sun in your eyes

Then I would close the curtains if i were you

but that! would be the sensible thing to do

ok then construct a huge dish that would obscure the light of the sun at the precise angle as to which it can get into ones eyes

now your talking



to work out how much scaffolding needed

I'd say several tones
so perhaps an elephants worth

yes and I'll start saving the bamboo chips to be ready

I have some potato chips will those do?

only the straight variety

well I think there all slightly curved....

no good thenit has to be strong to stand up to the s that will camp there

well maybe I could get some sort of crisp flattener

with added starch for extra stiffness

don't want them too stiff or they will snap in the wind and then I'd have to get the dustpan and brush out and I don't want to do that because I cant remember where i left them

don't worry, the soft breeze of the butterfly wings will move any bits

but if its too warm the butter will melt...

only on one side though

then they will go round in circles
