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

Just curious..

"Huh?"

(That's what I would title it, well at least at this second...) What about you? Or whoever?

"The Complete Idiot's Guide to Being Mother of God, Empress of the Universe"

"It Wasn't Me"

"How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?- The Ency Story" (because I *really* like that saying)

Tim Allen has already stolen the best one- "Never stand close to a naked man"

I'd steal Katherine Hepburns title" Me"

I've already written mine, in a strictly limited edition of four copies for my family and their descendants, if they bother to read it

I called it "One of the Cut-Price Crowd", from Philip Larkin's poem "Here", which is about Hull and its environs, where he spent most of his working life, and where I was born and have lived most of my life. Speaking about the people of Hull, the relevant line is -
"A cut-price crowd, urban yet simple", which seems to sum me up quite nicely.

"I Told You So"

"These Things Happen to Other People (they don't happen at all)"

A line from a They Might Be Giants song...I think it best explains my soap-opera life...with the startling coincidences, and bizarre accidents...

"Sonata in Eb"

the boxer of our time

'Mina'

Actually, I'll have to discuss this with my biographer. That name might already be taken.

I bet it would sell better as 'Mina Muse of Bondage', and I'll also bet that that name isn't already taken.

"In persuit of uninsured losses"

(I keep crashing the bike you see.)

Well It would have to be

"Not again ?"

I'm going to nick this idea from Joe Bennett

Every man's autobiography should be called:

"From Hair to Prostate"

if I can't have that I'll go for

"And Your Whiney-Assed opinion would be...?"

'Roses Round the Window, Greenfly in the Kitchen'

Tha sums up two things, firstly I can't even keep greenfly under control, or little else in the garden come to that.

Secondly the sunny smiles can hide troubled times.

or maybe
sledgehammer hands
