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

with a riff
and a raff
here's an
and a quaff

I was once classed as riff-raff. But over time, my riff got ruffed.

("riff-raff" as the onomatopoeia for a record-screech)

I think he was the butler in the 'Rocky Horror Picture Show' http://rocky-horror-picture-show.wikia.com/wiki/Riff_Raff

The resemblance is striking

That Riff Raff, the one with stringy hair and no tan, is the one I've been imagining this whole time.

*wanders in* Hello? Is this thing on?

*Wakes with a start in an armchair*

Eh yes

Oh good!

Things do seem to be a bit sporadic all over the site these days, I need to use http://h2g2.com/info to spot where things are going on.

Thanks for the link, BB. Not that I need it at the moment, but you never know. Things *do* seem to be abit sporadic these days

That's a super useful link BB! I think it is a function of everyone getting older, having kids, careers, commitments, and of course moving on. And of having conversations other places like Facebook. But it's nice to see that while things are slowing down, there are still some conversations and events that are hopping along in a lively manner.

Oh, and funny story. I was trying to look something up the other day and googling it I found the top hit was actually one of my Guide entries! And I noticed a typo, so I'm going to do something today I haven't done in probably over a decade: edit one of my entires!

Good luck.

It can be tricky these days. There're some bugs. It might be wise to copy all your GuideML over to notepad or similar before any edits.

If it's in edited status, you need to request a change from the curators... now if I only could remember where that is

Afternoon. Is it safe to come out of hibernation yet?

It was never an edited entry (too silly) so I was able to make the edit. Though I noticed the footnotes no longer work either. My knowledge of GuideML is right out the window...

I nearly ordered the Guide coffee table book, then realized I don't know what address I will be living at once it is delivered, so will delay...

(Is it ever safe Pats?)
