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

*ISP wouldn't load h2g2 till partway through the day*

My apologies for being late in getting back, everyone -- I did try.

I hope eventually that we can have a sort of compendium of researcher images. What do you think, Amy?

Ampton, mix me a bacardi cocktail, I fancy something pink.

Welcome back, Lil. Yes, the place to start viewing the fashion show is http://www.h2g2.com/A468885 where various options are made available.

for me, please, Ampton.

*floating in, in her usual vague, -like manner*

Ampton, a please!

*dressed in sky blue kimono-inspired dress with wide sleeves and a white silk sash tied around her waist*

*still applauding, ox returns again from the fashion show*

Another cognac, please Ampton. Quite a lot of creative work, Lil and Amy. Very impressive and so much fun! Titania, you look wonderful, of course you usually do!

Thank you ox, but Lil deserves all the credit!

*pouring herself another - sorry, bad habit from the Atelier*

Anyone?

for me, too! I've learned some more HTML as a result of it, which I'll apply to the Next Big Thing...

Say, does anybody besides me remember the cartoonist Robert Crumb?

No but this will cause more than a few crumbs.

The Palm Beach... The current favourite with vote-weary Americans this is an over-filled sandwich of sun-dried tomato, polenta, rocket and kohlrabi, dressed with Nicaraguan balsamic vinegar and extra virgin, never-even-been-kissed, olive oil and sprinkled lightly with Dead Sea salt between two slices of walnut bread, made with walnuts freshly plucked by hand from the great Patagonian walnut forests, on the lower slopes of the Andes, of course.

He doesn't ring a bell. Would he be familiar to those of us in the UK?

Dammit man, great set of thumbnails we got over there

*strolls around the yard after reviewing the fashion for a second time*

Amy and Lil, you two have extraordinary talent. I'm impressed.

Ampton, may I have a Ketel One martini, please. I've got a killer sore throat and I think that will help numb it.

Thank you, WM. We had great fun creating all these designs. I have a feeling this event will be repeated. Perhaps we should canvas for models.

Have some extra vodka in that Martini - for medicinal purposes, of course.

R. Crumb...Zap Comics. I remember him well, Lil. Very well!

Very few people have heard of my favourite cartoonist - Rupert Besley.
Shame, as he's very talented.

Great Fashion Show, though!

*Wumbeevil strolls in wearing his clan Hurley kilt featuring large safety pins ate either side. This is set off to perfection by his slinky off the shoulder liberty bodice with real rubber buttons*

Greetins luvvies. My, wasn't thet show ebsolootly mahvelous? Some of the outfits were simply divine. I jest adored the minimalism of the securibots, and oh didn't our leader look so impressive? A dressing gown to tie for.

*the facade starts to crumble...*

Right wherrsrabevvy, mahmooths uzdry uzza camel...*remembers where he is*..as a camel wearing antiperspirant.

Can I have a please?

I've fallen asleep during Fritz the Cat, does that count?

I doubt that the cat was expecting much.

Story of my life. :'-)

Damn, can't even feign sadness now.

*Goes into the toilet and grabs a tray of from a passing waiter*

*red eyes glowing from under bush in the ground fog*
canaries in leather heh heh heh

*jumps up on edge of long table gets a beef sandwich*
Somebody give me ginger ale with two cherries

Hic!

One Ginger Spice and two Chers coming up

*sticks a cupcake in each ear*
