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

Let me get this straight.

Cameron lands on "her" feet on the pirate's chest,
but then the gardens are referred to as "his."

Has Cameron changed gender mid-song?

Good question.

And it remains unanswered four
hours after I asked it.

You'll have this when the person you asked the question of suddenly disappears for hours or even days at a time.

So, Lady Scott, has Lord Scott
recovered from the shoveling
he did on Christmas?

I named the character Tamara, then Cameron because I wanted a more gender-free name so the part could be for a man or woman depending on whomever would dare sing the song.

Yes, he appears to have recovered from the shoveling.



*wonders when the next snowstorm will hit*

Tuesday?

So far... just calling for rain, I think..

*checks the weatherbug, just to be sure*

Yeah, too warm on Wimpy and Wibble to snow, but a slight chance of snow on Thing.

Thanks for trying with the webcam, Mr. C ... didn't get one ... or want one, actually ...

I hope we don't get snow on Wimpy! My parents are flying out early Wibble morning, and they already had a 3-day airport marathon stay a few years ago after a blizzard!

So far looks like you'll just be getting rain too - the temperature would have to drop considerably from what they're predicting right now in order to get snow.

But as they always say, if you don't like the weather, stick around, it'll change.

That's for NJ. "If you don't like the weather, wait a minute"
Mark Twain once said, "Dozens of poets are exicuted every year in New Jersey for writing about the beautiful springs." and "During my last stay in New Jersey, I recorded 125 different weather patterns in the course of my four-hour stopover."

I thought Mr. Twain said that last bit
when he was in Massachusetts.

I'll be right back with search results.

Oh, gee.

If I could just learn to keep
my mouth shut....

The search was a bust, but reminded me of a philosophical question about how one's eyes can see everything but themselves, and even in a mirronr they're looking backwards.

Even when you're trying to see the
back of your own neck. You'd need
two mirrors to do that, and the second
mirror would reverse the left/right
arrangement of the first mirror, though,
so you'd be seeing your neck as it was...

Have you ever seen one of those "true mirrors where thay take two pieces of glass at an angle to show how you really look to other people?

They use something similar at
tailor shops and barber shops...

Anybody like a trim?
