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

On second thought,. never mind. That link seems odd to me.

(The Internet has some really strange sites that look legitimate at first )

You're right - there are a lot of sharks in the water. No worries.

But I feel ashamed about inadvertently posting a bogus link. Don;'t tell me to have my eyes checked. I just did. New prescriptions will soon follow.

Not at all. Thanks for the heads-up. Removing it was no problem.

And yes, I've yikesed myself for similar reasons. Ask Tavaron about the Horrible Incident with the moussaka.

Moussaka can be terrible if it's a bit off. And that's just in restaurants.

Photos of moussaka can be even worse if the person who posted them put in an x-rated redirect in order to discourage linking.

I didn't know that X links work for men. Only Y links.

This was, unfortunately, definitely a Y.

The whole idea of discouraging links by using porno sites is so wacky it's positively inspired.

Yes, but it had half a dozen h2g2ers mad at *me*, because I couldn't see the redirect and didn't know what they were talking about.

Also, the BBC was still running the site, and they were afraid we'd get in trouble.

I might have misread "moussaka," thinking it was "Moustafa," which would have gotten me into quite a different type of trouble.

I own a music box that plays 'Moustafa'. I inherited it from my father, who received it as a thank-you gift from an Egyptian colleague at his engineering firm.

From "Pitates of Pemnzance":

Do you know what it's like to be an orphan?\

Orfen! (i.e. often)
