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

knew I wouldn't have to revise my expectations

a drunken walk huh, had you been on the ginger beer (5%), amazing the places it takes you, who needs the psychodelics

I am all intrigued by the 2000 year old computer now, will goggle later

Hello ALS! I enjoyed the story as well. This sort of thing happens to me all the time, all my life. I've been bumping into very weird things and occasionally very weird characters since I was a little kid, I seem to be attracting it like a magnet. I already know about Feynman diagrams and the Antikythera mechanism ... I've encountered those for the first time in the late eighties, probably. Both are quite weird. But anyways, all I can conclude at this point in my life, is that the Universe has a strange sense of humour.

apologies for the delay in getting back to you folks (i was out at band practice last night, and out again tonight)...

thank you for your kind words about the story - will respond properly, asap!

Ginger beer for me please! Hullo all!

Ooh eh, just saw Tower Bridge on TV ...that's amazing, just watching representatives of my nation floating down the Thames right now. ..I think I just saw the MG on one of the boats ...

No, but seriously, I've been thinking about this story all week.

I am interested in the mysterious characters, Willem, who you have encountered... if you ever want to share.

I have my equivalent to the MG. Am I shy to talk about it? Yes yes! Working on the shy writings this week.

yes, good stuff for the inspiration, this ginger beer (especially the alcool variety!)

Willem, i second cactuscafe's request to know more about your mysterious experiences, if you feel inclined to share

in the meantime... looking forward to cee cee becoming forward** - and relating her own medley of mystery

one bottle of ginger beer coming up!


** ...less shy, that is

Hull a-l-s my friend. How are you?

Yes, I will become forward, when I have travelled backwards through my journal ... ....guided by ... guided by ....

, , and .

sorry, this is Elektra's fault. . She knows I am in love with smileys. . Oh no! I go I go I go

The fried egg is so symbolic...

It is. . Totally symbolic. It defines the Parameter..

Oops sorry als, we are ruining your thread, speaking purely for myself.

I have to go write a story about a charismatic Actor with a luminous aura..See you in twenty seven years.

absolutely no problem - you just carry on, cee cee

...personally, i can't wait to hear about this "voluminous Actor with an automatic charisma"!!

Hi again folks. I don't think this place is appropriate for talking about the weird stuff that's happened to me or the weird characters I've met. I am already open about being a bit loopy but I don't want to be considered hopelessly crazy. But thanks for asking.

That's OK, Willem, I understand totally, being of the same order myself. Wise to protect oneself.

to both of you. Been there, done that. Probably yesterday.
