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

sounds great, I already looked them up on google

I see that Amazon has chocolate ones.

Nice to have a resident dragon. Operation opera was interesting to read.

The dragon's song was part of a TMF parody I wrote 25 years ago. It as called "The enchanted kazoo," and the dragon that is chasing Tamino in he first scene is smarter than any of he people. It keeps eating major cast members, explaining why the plot veers wildly with no warning (not unlike TMF).

I think myself lucky that we don't have a horse infestation here.(currently no mice either, probably because of the rats).

Looks like all those UFO sightings could have been the inn then?

I liked this one.

The plague of miniature horses will gradually spread in time and space.

Heee haw...

Wait til you see what I do to Notre Dame and the L'Opera , when Jean Valjean visits.

Oh, I really love the miniature horses!

I once dreamed I have a herd of miniature elephants. That was nice.

As a little kid, I had a vivid imagination. In the dark, I imagined a parade of little, colorful entities parading through the air around me.

Baba Yaga sounds a bit like the oracle in the Hitchhikers Guide (The one selling her life's story so that you could attain happiness by making the exact opposite choices to the ones she did)

Baba Yaga was suggested as a character in the original recommendations for NaNoPoJo.

That jumping frog tale got what it deserved.

Mark Twain had a gift for making the wackiest stuff seem normal -- if you had the patience to wait for him to get to the point, if there was one. This particularly story never really had a real ending. Take that, readers!

That must have been quite a wedding. I wonder if any policemen turned jealous at all the newlywed pirates...

There may have been enough fair maidens available so the cops could marry too.

Fair enough.

Got my spaghetti al Dante today.

Dante probably wasn't one of the better dinner companions. He originally wanted to be a pharmacist, but you see books were sold in pharmacies, so there was no conflict between the two careers. His work influenced painters, sculptors, writers, and ultimately much of show business. His vision of Hell has been quite influential.

[Years ago I read a book set in Hell, complete with an ice cream truck. I can't track it down now. ]

What a shame. You mentioned Melvil Dewey, and we ran that Guide Entry last week. A88023666 (He was 'problematic'.)

A good way to end.
