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

I just don't think many people consider the fact that homophonia can literally ruin a good verbal relationship.

Very unfortunate that your post starts a new page Cupid, there was me expecting to see Polidari's question...

If oral = just talking about it, I lost my innocence at a very early age indeed

If you've lost your innocence, do you still have the box it came in?

I'm sorry I wasn't Polidari's question! I'll try harder next time.

Thank you for the vulgar boast six7s.

An innocent six7s? Does that have a nice ring to it or what?

I want to know if this means that talking to yourself can make you go blind.

...just make sure you shave your palms before handing food...

I think it may well be best for me to avoid that backlog

(like the plague).

Anyway - new question. Name the person based on the following statements :

3/12 : good
4/7 : bad
3/76 : good

I guess I should have read a few of the older postings in this forum to even understand how the bloody questions work!!!

Do I get a clue?

Meat loaf? (On the observation that two out of three aint bad).

I think six7's lost his innocence at an early age, having found no use for it. (Shamlessly pilfering jokes from Mr Pratchett).

Bit early for clues. Question designed to be a bit tricky to understand - if it was easier to understand it would be too easy to answer! Half of the ability to answer it is the ability to understand what the hell I'm talking about!

And 'no' to Meatloaf, by the way...

Guessing I'm barking up the wrong tree entirely then?

Henry the 1/8?

half the abiltiy to answer is the ability to understand.

OK - I concede to having half the ability to understand thereby only giving me a quarter of a chance to answer being as I therefore have only one eighth of the brainpower I did when I was an embryo. In consequence I am unlikley to be anywhere near the top ten of right answers, unless of course, I reactivate my bionic super brain thats, I'm sure, I left in the cupbaord under the stairs just behind that half full tin of white vinyl matt emulsion. Or was it silk? Oh no, I think it was actually gloss and magnolia not white at all. Or was it battered barley? Or antique cream? Or distressed parchmnet?

Anyway - the question. Hmmmm. No idea... Give up.. ask me one on sport.

Okay - a clue :

You're looking for an actor...

Charlie Sheen
Clint Eastwood
Michael J Fox
Ben Affleck
Matt Damon
Leonardo di Caprio
Spencer Tracy
Yul Brynner
Tom Hanks
Barney the Dinosaur


take yer pick - I have no idea

Yul Brynner is the closest (but not correct).

Am I close if I say ...

3/12 good For Good
4/7 bad it ain't half bad

The rest I have no idea about

The 12 were nominally bad. The 7 were nominally good. And I have no idea what you're talking about, so might not be too close...

Seamus

I'm guessing Charles Bronson, he was in the magnificent 7, dirty dozen, and I'm guessing that 3/76 has something to do with the great escape. Checking that one now...
