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

The fairy makes a fun noise when you shoot it and it hits a tree . I can't remember much more than that...

And "Maintignity" is the result of spending toooooo many hours playing Resident Evil....three I believe it was, in the dark. *giggles* M'buuuuddy Gazz is playing, running down a corridor that has a particularly tricky camera angle to navigate. The sentence goes a little something like this "Now, let's see if I can maintignity this time"

We believe it is a contraction of "Maintain Dignity", but we're not sure.

Good word, for the player in a hurry... Where did you get a fairy to experiment on? My sister always said that there should be a word to describe someone who has integrity. (Cos integral ain't it.) Maybe someone can do a lexicon of useful new words? Me, if I wasn't too lazy/busy... I started a new paper, Language Teaching Practice yesterday. Aaarggghhhh!

The fairy thing wasn't as much a practical experiment as it was theoretical. We know fairies make cute noises, and we know that people make wierd noises when hit in the gut by something fast moving, so we came to the conclusion that a fairy hit in the gut by something fast moving would make a wierdly cute, or 'fun' noise

Impeccable logic, my friend and I am glad to learn that no fairies were harmed in the course of your research!

(aka Aotearoa / New Zealand ) ... we have much more mundane tasks at hand...

For those seeking guidance re this coming Saturday, the following will be of little if any use whatsoever

Yup little to no use is right

I hope I can go to work tomorrow, being home is driving me ty

Cheese, I like your resident evil inspired word. A recptionist where I work has a word nunu noun: pertaining to anything slightly technical for which the name escapes you at the time.

Glad to finally see last night on TV someone mention the a vote for NZFirst was (and may still be) a vote for national.

Absotively! Why do people have such short memories, re Winnie?

The offical ACT view on life (A chart I've just been given with respones to issues by all parties.)

HEALTH Will promote private health schemes to reduce ......................waiting lists.

WORKPLACE HEALTH Will repeal the health and saftey in employment AND SAFTEY................act.

EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS Will repeal the ERA
ACT (ERA).............Will remove right to strike
......................Will remove union access to workplaces

PAID PARENTAL LEAVE Opposes paid parental leave

TERTIARY EDUCATION Greater private sector involvment
......................Remove requirement for students to belong to ......................Student Association. (Students actually voted to ......................make belonging a requirement)

Ewww, it didn't look like that when I typed it

It's a very scary thing, and that's for sure! Why does anyone vote for them?(I mean, ACT are scary, not your typing..)

There are strange people in this country......

You're telling me! 48 hours to go... Someone just said ACT might not make it, then he said: "Imagine a life without Prebble and Hide". Indeed! I know how I am voting - I presume everyone else had made up their minds?

I have an election problem - I watch channel 4 from 8:30 pm. may I'll tape the election

We have the same problem. Jimmy wants to watch the election, and I'm torn, despite my feelings about it, I don't want to miss 'EFC'. It hurts so good! Jimmy may decide on 'Total Recall 2070' when it comes down to it...

I have no doubt that ACT and National voters will be taking advantage of thr picture-in-picture freature on their expencive tellies.

Yes, I'll have some too! It's a wonderful result, if Winnie (My Way or the Highway) Peters doesn't mess it up... Or Peter (What do I really stand for?) Dunne...

Michelle Boag and Bill English are for the high jump, I hear...
