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

There has been a strange influx of dental work around here as I myself contributed to my dentist's holiday abroad with the grandchildren by having a tooth filled. Must be a result of all those christmas sweets. I never could turn down a mincemeat tart. Or for that matter a nice rum punch. Ta Alec.

I have an interesting tidbit from an unnamed source. It seems Sadam Hussein has been using clones to confuse people but one of his clones
started using foul language so Sadam had the guards throw his to his death from the Palace roof. When secret agents reported this to George W Bush he said "typical now in adition to his other crimes we can accuse him of making an obscene clone fall.

ROTFL

thankyou shagbark

alec.

Was this interesting tibit, the baghdad town drunk by any chance!!!

The retort was far too funny to have been made by our fearless & brainless'leader'... Neug-

* takes the rags out of her ears *

Why is everyone laughing?

*points to signed and framed photograph of GWB and AT hanging on the wall above the 'slap-on' rollaway steel punch cabinet.*

*Caption reads : "NOW I know who to call, thanks alec...GWB"

Hi Luz...howzitgoing ???

When Gohostbusters just wint do there is always Alec

I'm doin' good ythanks Alec - you?

Whats been happening in your world?

oh all sorts of things luz...

i flew to the bahamas in a seaplane a couple of times back in Jan,
overcoming a deep seated fear of flying that i've had for a number of years.

the littlest trician has just turned 10

and i'm having a great time at work, rewiring a sailboat whose crew are Springboks, Kiwis, Aussies, Zimbabweans and a German. Oh and there's a token Amerikaner too...We have a bunch of fun.

how's ??


alec.

Good for you Alec! Were the Behamas beautiful? I am not that fond of flying but can cope with big planes - I am less sure about those small ones

A 10th Brithday Party must have been fun too Did you do Jelly and Ice cream?

Your work does sound like fun - do you get to go out in the boats too?

has been somewhat hectic recently! We had some big announcements this week which effected the whole of our empire and I had to drop what I was working on and spend lots of time communicating the changes - quite fun really. I have a new boss (second one in 4 months!) which is hard work but he seems good

* passes a *

Alls fair in love, war and chocolate production!!!

i just read this:

"Love??...forget it, i'd rather fall in chocolate"

alec.

Well it depends how high you were dropped!!!

or

how high you were when dropped

make mine the praline

alec.

high on ?

well, i've heard worse

thank you, alec, i have had my share of flying. don't mind doing it again but have absolutely *no* craving for flying 16 hours in one go as our lookout and the navigator did a few days back

...so they've arrived safely then,
we thank God for travelling mercies.

Any idea when they will be resuming their duties??

i mean...one can only sit at anchor and wait for so long right...

...hmm

we did remember to drop the hook-shaped thingie at the front

er didn't you Captain Pisces ??

alec.

Where are we anyhu!!

no worries whatsoever

the autopilot is turned on and their controls safely locked, so we should be safe for a while

guess we will arive in the horsehead nebula in a few lightyears from now

as for the navigator and the lookout they have arrived safely in england but haven't yet found out where to unpack there computers so it will probably be a while before we see them here again

they send their love

Oh, the horsehead nubulae, how romantic, good thing I brought my digital camera, I wonder if I have enough time to figure out how it works!!!

according to my astronomy teacher the horsehead nebula doesn't work at all
