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

Why thanks, ox.

Good thing you've got the Pan Galactic scanner...I'm not carrying plastic or cash!

*chuckle*

Strolling these aisles could become a habit...

See ya later!

So long, ox.

Man, I got the munchies. Do you guys deliver? I know we can work out a deal.

Hi, VAL. I can arrange delivery, but you have to leave a thread address.

Did you lose your shoes, again?

Thanx, I'll look into that.

*Kitty has found what he wants - a very Very VERY BIG ball of wool - and carries it out of the store. The scanner portal obigingly registers his purchase on Mad Hatter's credit balance*

Thanks Witty, I'll just take some s'mores and dash off to Guide camp [http://www.cosmic.org.uk] see you next week for further browsing.

Ændr

*Gives Ændr the Girl Scout/Guide sign*

Have a good time, Ændr! Bye, Kitty. See you soon.

*enters and heads down aisle 4, stopping in front of the ICU. Selects a Cactus Juice from the holographic display and retrieves it, cold and frosty from the unit*

Scan me, please, Thanks! Catch you later.

*looks up from the fresh sandwiches she's making, waves to ox*

*wraps sandwiches and puts them in the Ifinite Capacity Refrigerator*

*updates holographic display*

*presses the whole carrot cake icon on the holographic display, and removes the carrot cake from the fridge*

*dials up the Lil's Atelier on the thread forwarding giz and sends the cake to Lil's Bon Voyage party at:

*shakes left hands with WM and says hello*
just got back from Cambridge
camp was good
could I interest you in http://www.netguides.org.uk as a guiding place to look at

finds the chocolate and takes 3 big bars and some mammoth milk for kitty

I'm glad you enjoyed camp.

Hey, is that you wearing the hat on the Leaders Page? That is some site you put together! And all just for Net guides. I seem to remember that a US council is putting together some kind of Internet program, but I'm not really sure what the structure is, I'll have to research it a little.

Our main site is http://www.gsusa.org/

How is kitty?

Hi, folks! Are this months' "Romulan's Wives" and "Klingon Babes" in yet? Oh, and I'll have a cheese, mashed potato and sweetcorn sandwich with mayo on white bread, please.

* Starts trying to figure out the buttons on the replicators...

I'm in the hat in the photo on the leaders pages, indeed. For some reason, with my eyes shut!
I'm only in charge - others did most of the actual htmling and activity design
I've been to that GSUSA site a fair few times
say, are you on AllGirlScouts? an emailling list for (mainly US) leaders - I'm on it. I'm also on WAGGGS-L.
if you aren't and want info let me know, if you are then wave sometime.
Kitty is fine, still in the Antarctic at the moment, enjoying the winter.

Hiya, Peet!

*slides 2 magazines into a plain brown bag and hands it discreetly to Peet*

No replicators here, sir. I make everything fresh and store it in the Infinite Capacity Refrigerator. It's the Automated Retrieval System that makes it seem like the items are appearing out of nowhere. Here, I'll make your sandwich up fresh right now.

Ændr, I'm not an active leader right now. I'm a registered adult taking a break from the frustrations of dealing with the system, non-cooperative parents and incessant fund-raising. My 13 year old is out of scouting and my 8 year old is a 3rd year Brownie. So I don't get bored, I'm involved with 2 Parent Teacher Associations at their schools. I get in enough trouble doing that.

*wraps Peet's sandwich, including a kosher dill pickle on the side, and hands it to him*

Something to drink, Peet?

Witty, I don't suppose you carry Xyzzy News, do you? I've not been able to find an issue in almost a year.

well, if your daughter wants to try anything that is on the netguides brownie site, she's welcome. If she wants to swap a badge (I swap UK Friendship Badges) we could arrange that too.

do you have any copies of Current Archaeology? I let my subscription lapse a couple of years ago.

Hmmm, Current Archeaology, now that's a bit of an oxymoron, isn't it? But I think I can ~dig~ one up for you. (nudge, nudge) Let me check in the storeroom.

Affy, of course I stock Xyzzy News. Look on the newspaper rack, it should be right between Yesterday's News and The Zanzibar Times.

*She pops off to the storeroom, returns shortly with several hot-off-the-press copies of C A. She hands one to Ændr and put the rest on the magazine rack.* Ændr, I've bookmarked the netguides site, I'll spend some time on it with my daughter once the back-to-school mayhem settles down a bit.
