Sweetness and light, right?
The white's growing on me... the blue and white tassle thingie looks really neat against it...

Everything has two ends - the front end and the back end. So the week end encompasses both ends of the week. Maybe it should be pluralized? I have always thought weekends are better than a weekend. If one's good, two's better. Ok - maybe EVERYthing doesn't have two ends, but a week does. I suppose if Thor does strike it will be the end of the weak. Or all of us.

If Zaphod thinks changing the names of the days of the week make no difference, let him dwell on the awesomeness of changing ALL the days to Saturday! While the indigenous et al find one day rolling into another (does his days have gaps between them or something?), the rest of us would have plenty of time to rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic (a little feng shui might have made a big difference there!), or otherwise celebrate our unending Saturday. And unless we had the misfortune to be a Seventh Day type, we wouldn't even have to go to church!

Hi there, anonymous Researcher! If you write something on your Personal Space, even if it's only a period/full stop, some of the friendly ACEs and/or Guardian s can come by and say "hi!" Like me, for instance!
And maybe you'd like to join the Thingites?
