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

Now there's a thought. What skills would be needed? Ability to play a muscal instrument...Mmmmm. Good voice....Double mmmmmm...ability to write songs.....hey ho! Think I'd better just get breakfast for the Tweedles...they are sooooo clever. The older ones have all got 'A's for their A levels and will soon desert the ship for uni and the younger ones have a clutch of A stars and A's for their GCSE's...they barely need a boss. They could run the planet consumately never mind a flower shop...perhaps I should teach them how to make the flowers look wonderful and buy a 'teach yourself the triangle' book!

Good voice? Pah. No need Just get a bunch of backup singers and a good manager that will keep the illusion up.

And I think I'm the man for the job of manager

So all I need is to look like a cross between Michelle Pfeifer and debbie Harry...easy! out loud!

Hmm, another smiley. You're getting there!

And what are you now? A rotweiler and a Shi Tzu? (I love saying that name)

No somewhere between a great Dane and a labrador...remember? More like an ancient labrador it has to be said...Saggy jowls, wrinkly tummy, but still trusting eyes and playful! Was upgraded to club class a few years ago because some blind stewardess thought I was.....
Now that's got you guessing!
I'm sure one of us should be doing some work!

Yassus malakas?

I just wanted an opportunity to post something like Shi Tzu and not get moderated!

and double . Both wonderful expressions dear boy!
My current personal favourite has to be the English pronunciation of the posterior... 'arse'. Stressing the 'r' sound with a firm downward inflection is most satisfying. Adding a 'y' or a 'd' to the word multiplies its uses, to adjective and verb... delicious!

Yes, they are. Will you ever tell me what Yassus Malakas is?

I hope I'll be able to hear that pronunciation someday

'Yassus' is 'hello/morning/nice to see you/how's it/chow etc'
'malakas'? mmmm how to do that without getting moderated. OK let's try
Cockney rhyming slang... 'merchant banker', rhymes with tanker, hanker, and danker...a derrogatory term for someone you consider unpleasant and useless (it can also be used as a term of endearment to someone you know really well and are consistantly rude to.)
Someone who pursues a solo sexual path.
I hope that covers it!

Yes, indeed it does
I actually know what that one is because of Ben's short guide to short words
