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

[P]

Lil, I just discovered that the conversation dots start a new line after dot no.30 in Alabaster

well, the number of dots per line also has a good deal to do with screen res.

*sings*

I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay
I sleep all night
I work all day

*speaks*
Off for my first day at NAU, home of the Lumberjacks! See you all later!

Enjoy, Irv!

Will Styx share those pork pies? I love a good Jewish Hand Grenade or two for lunch.

*floating in, realizing Anhedonia is right, at RL home the dots are still only in one line*

Hi all!

Matina, a Y of champagne, please...

Springie, want to cuddle? Come...

*floating out on veranda, followed by the unau*

*flutter of wings*

G'evening

Matina, an Irish Coffee for me, please.

QMike, if you are looking for really funny B-movies and like some oldfashioned horrors, then check the old Dracula-movies or movies from Roger Corman, he was really a maestro in this! Vincent Price was one of the most important actors in those movies.

*from veranda, where she's cuddling with Springie*

Kasia, would you know how to make 'Glühwein'?
I know it's different from the Swedish 'Glögg', but I'd like to know more specifically...

Okay Titania, here we go:

1 bottle claret
1 piece (1-inch) cinnamon stick
6 lumps sugar
3 strips orange peel
3 whole cloves
3 strips lemon peel
Mix these ingredients all together. Heat in a saucepan but do not boil. Strain into a pitcher.

Enjoy

Thank you, Kasia!

If you've got the time, why not join me and Springie on the veranda watching the fireflies? (I brought the champagne bottle with me, of course, all you need is a Y)

Matina, an empty Y please.

Titania, I'm coming!

*fills Kasia's Y with champagne*

*leans back in chair, cuddling Springie, deep sigh of happiness*

Kasia, isn't Lil's veranda just perfect for a bit of piece and beauty - kind of elvis...

Elvis? The King?

...sorry, I meant elvish...

Hey, K, what's the name of that guy who's meant to be king of B-movies? Ed Wood?

I think I prefer the verandah being more Elvis myself, now would it be the boy from the sticks in denim early Elvis, the leather Jacketed Comeback special or the sequined suit Vegas season? I think I'd likeit to be the early Elvis myself.

Mmm, early Elvis like in that movie - hang on - oooh, my lousy memory for names malfunctioning again - help me out...

Dunno, he did quite a few movies, several of them quite duff as well.

Can you fill this Y for me pease

Elvis Presly? Ugh.

*filling Phil's Y with champagne, somewhat awkwardly, due to Springie hanging around her neck*

Some film about Hawaii?...*shaking head, trying to force memory to work*

Huh, what's this elvish?

And yes, QMike, Ed Wood has now a kind of cult status, as his films were soo bad, that they are good again - somehow (does it make sense? Hmmm). Well, there is quite a good movie about him, named just 'Ed Wood' with J.Depp and this guy, who once played in the TV series 'Alpha 1999', Martin ... oh, well I forgot it, but he received an Oscar for his role in 'Ed Wood'.
