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

It has been a while, and our current "President" has drifted off with her tea-pots and critters. So, is it time to see if there are enough folks with 'spirit' to make a go of it?

The last time around is (more or less) summarized here . . .

I think an election is an excellent idea, but I don't think we should be electing people. Maybe some can suggest varying objects of some sort that we can vote on. Be creative.

Now really, how fair would that be? Badgers would win by a landslide before even half of the electorate was awake.

The thought of another election at this moment makes my brain feel explodey.


Ask me again after I've had a good, long weekend's drinking session and survived the impending hangover of this election.

The way elections have been going this year, I think it might be wise to wait till after Christmas......

Indeed - I don't like elections this year

who won last time round? I've entirely forgotten

2000 Elections:
President: Peregrin
Vice President: Bluebottle

2005 Elections:
President: Hypatia
Vice President: Jordan

I'm with Baron Grim.

The dust from yesterday's U.S. election may not settle for a long time. Hillary is inventive enough to find plenty of useful things to do. Or, at least harmless things. We know for sure that she won't have the means to bomb anyone or establish a fraudulent university .

The last H2G2 election was 11 years ago, and I didn't even notice. I'm the wrong person to be involved in this.

we're like 6 years overdue an election! - call in the electorial reform institute immediately, this is undemocratic! not to mention unbadgercratic!

I bet that badgers care even less than I do about this.

badgers can be highly political creatures, often with a marked interest in the geo-political arena far beyond their own country and relm of native expertease. Often, some badgers can demonstrate advanced ability to even contrabute to the polits of a country, with the're deep set interest in the subject, and extensive knowledge. In 1984 there was an estimated 18 Badgers, sitting in the UK house of Lords, and in 1991, 8 badgers in total were standing as elected representatives in the European parliment.

The nearest badgers are about 400 miles west of Boston. Mostly they live in open prairie.

Badgers!?

We don't need no stinkin' badgers!

We have plenty of raccoons. They're much friendlier than badgers.

We have no shortage of squirrels. Canada geese are plentiful here. Also ducks.

I thought that said "also dicks".

The badgers will inherit the earth

Dicks, as in detectives? We have many amateur dicks here, though I doubt any of them could find an apple if it were hanging from a branch in front of them.

dics or ducs.... same old quandry..... I quite like lamb oto.....
