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

Or getting a bit philosophical (sp?)

"I don't like violence. I know it's fashionable among those trying to make the world a better place, but I can't help thinking that it might not be a bad old world if there wasn't any violence."

Norman Clegg, Last of the Summer Wine

Or on a different note

"Oh ! I've made a ing mistake! I'll have to ing well start again!"

Me when doing my Maths coursework.

"There are no ones. Only zeros and twos. Fractions. Equations. And numbers to choose. I got Another F. I Didn't learn nothin' in your class to day." from the song "Theology and Algebra" by Blenderhead.

peace.

Here's a good one I came across the other day:

"A woman is like a teabag; you don't know how strong she is until you stick her in hot water."
Eleanor Roosevelt.

"There are holes in the sky, where the rain comes in.
The holes are small, that's why rain is thin"
Spike Milligan, who passed away today

Is there an obituaries page anywhere on h2g2? If there is, we need to add Spike Milligan, John Thaw and Chuck Jones (creator of Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner)

Howdy Froods,

Having more than one head and neither of them saner than an emu on acid. I have several quotes, that I like.

"The Goddess is alive and magick is afoot."

"One by one the penguins are stealing my sanity."

"Madness takes it's toll, please have exact change."

My fav. is by Mr. Adams himself...
"The purpose of having the sun go low in the evenings, in the summer, especially in parks, is to make redheads' breasts bob up and down more clearly to the eye. I am convinced that this is the case."

Stay Hoopy,
Zaph

"human beings are essentially machines created by nucleic acids for the efficient replication of more nucleic acids"
carl sagan

and here are two quotes that, when you add an "if" and an "and" you get a nice little "then":

"everything is art" - ben vautier
"90% of everything is crap" - theodore sturgeon

Hear, Hear.
Hears one from Bugs Bunny. Right now l'm mad. l'll be scared later. * staring down the nose of the Giant in "Jack and the Beanstalk "*

"I guess we can't punish Victor for bringing Sparky back from the dead"

A couple of Spike Miilgan ones I have seen, due to his sad passing;
"I thought I'd begin by reading something by William Shakespeare. Then I thought, why should I, he never reads anything of mine."
"I'd like to go to heaven, but if Jeffery Archer's there I'd rather go to Lewisham."
On walking on to a chatshow;
"I have a complaint."
"Yes, what is it?"
"Leprosy."

"I'd like to find your inner child and kick its little ass"
- Get Over It, Eagles

Cheers

True but we done it with class.

"A towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have"-Douglas Adams Sidenote h2g2 still does not have a towel smiley.

"I realize I missed the mark."
-Aaron Sprinkle on his cd, Bareface

peace.

I think this one is from the late Spike M.

'I have a pronounced limp. That's L-I-M-P, pronounced "limp"'.

Just plain old Bob asks:

These obituaries already exist. It's just that you haven't written them down yet.

That Sagan quote can be said better. "A chicken is an egg's way of making another egg." But I can't remember who said it.

An eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth. Vote for me an l'll set you free. The man with the plan gonna lie.
