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

and i am very sad because John is leaving my drama group after i've know him 3 yrs and i think he's a really froody guy!

*Busterbone skulks in, wearing black cape*

I'm not actually alive.

I am a Top Secret mutant mechanical monster created as part of a Top Secret Australian Government plot to Top Secretly dominate the world.

I was built (in Top Secret) by the same people who built the Collins class submarines so you can count on quality.

BTW everything stated above is absolutely Top Secret so don't go talking about it on the Internet.

Hi Busterbone - I hope thatyou work a little better that the submarines and I wish that all governments were so Top Secret that they never made their presence known

sounds good to me! anyone here from England? who do you think will get the Tories?

The Tories??

Is that a showbiz award, you know, like the Emmy's or something.

*crouches down, chews on blade of grass*

Don't get much call for showbiz awards around these here parts. What with the droughts and the floods and the cholera and the bad TV reception.

*Busterbone slips ever deeper into obstinate farmer cliche*

60 years I worked this here farm, man and boy, and now the Barret boys think they can make me cry uncle just by poisoning my well and shooting a few of my herd and scaring my workers off by pretending to be creatures of the night. *Sorry, a little bit of Lugosi crept in there*

Well my father didn't bring me up to give up quite so easily. Not when I got powerful friends!!

*Walks stage left to large object covered in tarp*

And I think its time to call in those friends.

*removes tarp to reveal giant Batsignal*

Yup, those Barret boys will know what scared REALLY is once they meet this creature of the night *pats Batsignal, chuckles*

*fade to black*

nope! it's a political party! and just before the general election (last month) the leader of the conservative party (otherwise known as the Tories) said that if they didn't win, he would resign. they lost, and he resignred!

Hello... I'm talking... Isn't it fun...

Hello, I'm talking . Isn't it fun...

I'm sorry, I seem to have posted twice... but I got a gateway timeout first time *grrrrr...*

cheesestraws - double posting is something we all do here - in my case, OFTEN (damned pooters) - no worries.

How are you enjoying h2g2 BTW???

I like it . I'm not completely new, having browsed vaguely in the past, but I'm really getting into it now, and I like it a lot .

I'm currently working on my first article (wooo!), which will be nice when finished... "Semiconductors for beginners"

Anyway... should be doing school work now

ta,
cheesey

pah - who needs to do schoolwork when you have all the knowledge in the world here, at your very fingertips?!

I use this extensively in my work, I assure you

"Semiconductors for Beginners" ???

Do you mean people who only collect fares on the top deck of the bus?

"Semiconductors for Beginners" ???

or someone who only directs half of the orchestra

or directs a whole orchestra with one hand

What are they doing with the other hand?

On the other hand, maybe they conduct semi-trailers, aiming for the beginners. Splat!

That sounds like my kind of article!!

You think you need to bookmark *this* forum? There's optimism for you...

The Tories lost and the leader quit??

Are you sure you're not talking about the English cricket team
