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

That happens rather often, too (that I can't remember the German word/expression but know the English one perfectly well).

I'll bet somebody has studied this phenomenon, but I don't know for sure.

Who knows? people study all sorts of things.

Then there is the phenomenon that there isn't a German word/expression in the first place.

Or that there isn't an English one.

Or...that Elektra has made up a word like 'Durcheinandersetzung', which meant 'a long, pointless argument in the dorm council'.

That's a brilliant word.

That's Elektra for you.

Very creative. I love that word.

I like your limerick, as well.

Thanks. Your anagram is good, too. At least I know it's you, which I can't say of a few others (I have to go to their PS to find out).

Yes. I give up sometimes.

There are some which you can recognise by their posting style, but as for the rest...

Heh-heh. Maybe Hallowe'en should include some roleplay?

As long as nobody asks me to participate.

Maybe should have a game or a contest?

We're certainly looking for some Hallowe'en stuff for the Post.

Aha. If I think of anything, I will let you know.

That would be great. Could be anything, poetry, fiction, or cartoon.

Working on it.

Done. And in your mailbox.

So I've just seen.

Thank you.
