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

err, y'know, I had this strange visitor yesterday who was mumbling about selling an insurance against fire and riots . I sent him away because my place on h2g2 was always safe!

Are you sure?

Don't trust Floh - he works for the government!

Yeah, she says so, and I know what it means. Once I did some gov service too

Hey, you don't even know WHICH government

I didn't know that Floh was female (I know a male one, his real name is Florian, but since he's not so tall, he's called 'Floh', which means 'flea' in German). Sorry, Floh!
Do you work in the White House?

I must admit that I don't know what THE government is :-( Only that it has something to with the There's no such thing as paranoia-discussion at http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/F70048?thread=119980

hmmm, perhaps I'm still too sober to get the gist of that discussion over there. Sounds like paranoid babble to me

Who knows this song?

"Baabaa baabaabam
baba baba bababa baabaabam"

ugh? is that a new language, 'Bamblish' or so?

Hey! Maybe Ruppi is a good friend of Hugo? They could open a group of 'newly-developed-languages-which-are-so-hard-to-understand'.

In the past few days I was thinking, where to spend my holiday..no idea at all Poland is beautiful, but in September, when I will have free, it's a bit too cold... And I don't wanna go to Munich, cause it's Octoberfest time and this is just too much for me

Any good proposals??

How about southern France? The Provence with all kinds of herbs in full blossom, lovely wine and lots of garlic in your food ?

I would allways recommend Spain ...

... back I am, had a little problem with my login therefore couldn't be here for some time but as I can see everything works fine

Nice topic...Ferienvorbereitungen.
I'm at work right know (still another 7 1/2 hours)

Ahh...Spain! Where the rain falls mainly on the plain.
Recommendable by me, too.
(A bit cheaper than La Cote d'Azur)

My next vacation won't be before fall or maybe even winter, so I'm thinking of someplace overseas, where it is warm.
(South-America, India, Australia.......something like that. In the meantime I'll have to make some money, in order to achieve this goal).

And who is Hugo?

Hugo the fish is a researcher who developed a language and a translator for it which lots of people have fun with. Bubblish is the only accepted foreign language on the site. French is supposed to be but a lot of postings have disappeared lately which, I think, were in French.

You can find Hugo here:

Hey, I still don't know what p. 29 was to say... some more hints please Ruppinger!

Err... AXR ?? You alive?? Fiiiiine!

Hi AXR) glad to see, you finally sorted out the problems with your log in

As for p.29, Bossel, methinks Ruppinger was singing a Beach Boys song

It starts with a 'B' alright......
But....THE BEACH BOYS (?)
- You're far from it Kasia!

And it's no language, it's a guitar intro!
*Ruppinger relooks p.29*
Dang, I think I was drunk, as I postet the song - the second line is kind of misleading.
I'll practice my singing skills and try again later.

Two years ago I spent four weeks in La Gomera, the second-smallest of the Canary Islands. SUUUUPER

Hmm... Canary Islands, FLoh..? That doesn't sound bad... And maybe I can win a free fly ticket to the Canary Islands - my company makes on Tuesday a sommer breakfast in an airplain and Kasia (yes, she has the same nice name ) told me, that one of us ciuld win this free ticket...
