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

A bit quiet at the moment, everyone else is asleep.

Hi everyone! I'll make the roster additions in a short while - been busy, ya know.........

Well if you want something done, give it to someone who's already busy (my mother's oft given advice ) -mind you, even mentioning it now there are some gaping holes in the argument .

Well, I'm sure that makes sense, however...........I'll try to figure it out later.

Ok, everyone has been posted:
Linus - I hope Dirty Trickster is ok. Let me know if you want to change it.
sheep - Official Guinness Pint Puller it is. We look forward to swift delivery.
Wowbagger - we already have a hot dog vendor, and I think TV's Dog might get jealous of another mascot. Get ready to mark those lines and play that organ. Do you have a monkey?

Welcome aboard everyone! Your names and positions will be mentioned in the next Misfit Newsletter.

Swift delivery of a pint of Guinness? You must be joking! Don't you know that there is an obligatory wait of a couple of minutes before you get your pint? I don't want the Irish boys accusing me of passing out slop.

While you're waiting for your pint, have a fish instead.

Well, I must have meant swift in a relative sense

Line marker and organ grinder it is then.

144 seconds is the length of time for the ideal pint of the Black Stuff, there was also, a prize for any team in this years Rugby world cup who could score before that time of the match, unfortunately the prize went unclaimed. Good for you HS I'm sure you won't serve me slop anytime.

As an ardent baseball fan, it sort of jumped out at me - don't you need a shortstop?

I am going to request (what I believe to be) a rather impotant and underrated job at the softball field...

I want to sit in the Cheap-Seats.

You desperately need an "Unhappy Fan/Thrower of Seat Cushions"

Please consider my application. I am, rather, qualified for the job.

Ok Baron, you've been posted. Welcome! Sorry to hear about your house, by the way

Ioreth - If you study the roster you'll notice that I am in fact the shortstop, partly because I play shortstop for a real-life company softball team, and partly because I'm the manager and can fill out the lineup card as I see fit.....unless the owners (Mark, Peta, Anna, etc.) object Would you like to join up?

Absolutely. I'm on my school's (guys) baseball team, backup first baseman, because I'm a crappy baseball player and a southpaw. And a female human being, which seems to put my teammates off. But I'll take any position... I noticed a scorekeeper - is that the one who puts up the chalk numbers on the old-fashioned boards, or the official scorekeeper, as in "6-4-3 double play"? I'd love to do either, and do both on occasion.

Hi! I wanna join the team!
position: How about "director of closed captioning" or whatever you call the words that flow across the bottom of the tv screen in a different languge?

Ioreth - I've signed you up as "Old-Fashioned Scoreboard Operator." Let me know if you want something else, but I always wanted to have a scoreboard like the one at Wrigley Field

Mikonet - You are our new director of closed captioning. Now all we need to do is get a television contract

Welcome to the team! Don't forget to stop by Frink's Drinks for some relaxation, and watch for your names in next week's newsletter

Ok Frink, I'm not much of a joiner, and not really into sports, but I want to be on the team. I wanna hold the remote control! If you want to know what for, I'm not sure. Maybe the big screen that they show members of the audience on?

Can I play too? I could be an interdimentional cheerleader, I also hit quite hard for a girl- being an easy going sort of gal I can be flexible. Being of an evolutionary biological leaning- I am able to run very fast while staying in the same spot. Other strenghths include tactics and strategies. Check out my proximate functions!

Hi Frink! You know me!
Interesting homepage! Can I join the team please? I'll be in goal (if there is such a thing here)

Hi everyone!

GreyRose - I was wondering when you would join up Keep a hold of that remote control!

Jezebel - a quick trip to your homepage convinced me that you should be our Biological Anthropologist.

Katsy - Indeed I do know you. Been up to any anarchy lately? There isn't a goal in softball, but I don't see why that should stop me from posting you as Keeper of the Goal.

If anyone is unhappy with their position please let me know. Watch for your names in the next Newsletter, and welcome to the Misfits!

Yes I have been causing anarchy, in my case getting the Jerusalem sydrome! I told my mum and she told me to watch it, or I'll get arrested! Not that I can get anywhere near Jerusalem, let alone Israel to cause any trouble.
