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

Hi

Sorry to intrude - I just heard a report on the radio that Clive Cussler has just found some bits of the Mary Celeste down Haiti way.

Thought you might be interested - sorry I'll go away now.

Yes, I saw that one too, and posted about it in the "announcements" thread. Thanks for your message, though - it was nice of you to let us know.

I didn't know we had an audience!

*Hams it up with a big *

Maybe this should be pay-per-view?

*waves from behind Arl, trying to get noticed*

Hallo! Hallo!

If it was pay-per-view, who would get the pay?

G7

why, the cat, of course!

Well, we'd be payed according to our position. GL gets payed twice, as he is both the producer and the director. The original author gets screenwritter's pay, and the rest of us get payed as actors. As the leading man, the hero, even the romantic lead, I of course get the biggest check out of the players

*raises eyebrow*



G7

leading man, hero, and romantic lead?! *wonders what arl knows that she doesn't. the thread marked "private thread for seaman johan lorenzen" has never been so tempting*

must... distract... self....

Now, since this is an on-going drama, perhaps we could make it a pay-per-EACH-view.

*eyes glaze over as visions of wealth parade across his imagination*

Tht sounds like a good racket GL. My address is.....

No, no! We aren't doing this for money! We're doing it for the love of the art! For the betterment of society! For the advancement of humankind! Oh... and felinekind too!

*unobtrusively passes around the tip jar*

G7

Erm, I think I should get a /piece/ of the pay at least, seeing as I'm the cutest.

*grins evily and runs far, /far/ away as the other female characters advance murderously upon her*

nuh uh, jade, you forget i'm a ...

Sea...go pack!

Hey there! I didn't expect to start such a thread! I just remembered that I'd seen Mary Celeste mentioned somewhere and went looking for you when I heard the Clive Cussler thing.

So sorry to say I haven't been your audience. But now my curiosity has been aroused and maybe I'll go lurk some and see what's happening.

Is that OK or do I really have to pay-per-view? Are you all worth viewing?

I'll stay tuned to this station.

Okay, so maybe the romance part wasn't quite right. But as for the rest, doesn't everyone think they are the leading actor of their own life? And so shouldn't my character behave likewise?

I think it'd be depressing to think of yourself as bit part...

...And you could always join my fanclub, ya know.


*indicates the link to it on her site*

ya know, i was going to say something...... but i decided not to. so instead i'm sitting here rambling on because now i have nothing to say, but i want to bookmark the thread... so i'm continuing with this inane chatter. i could go for quite a while, you know... but i won't, because i'm pretty sure you don't want to hear it, much less read it. so i'm stopping now. really. i swear.

Sea, go pack!

, Jade.

That's ok, Arl. Poor Sarah has more than enough romance in her life to make up for your lack of it.

Yeah! We didn't have an audience, but now we do! You know, you almost robbed us of the one illusion that makes our lives worth living: that someone, somewhere is watching. (Anyone name that play/movie...)
