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

Afternoon, Titania...
whatcha w*rkin' on?

*yawns from lack of sleep*

Keep em' comin' IIEM...

*back from lunch*

Quite depressing weather to come back too here... From 20+ degrees and mostly sunny, to about 12 degrees and cloudy...

IIEM, another coffee please.

*joins T in w*rk corner*

The sky is showing of some truly fantastic clouds at the moment. Really big bushy ones, the kind that you allways want to be able to fly around.

Hmm, I'm in the middle of exams. There horrible. I have no life at all now, not that I had one before that is.

IIEM, coffee please! Fair Traded too.

*Sits in cumphy chair and gets out notes to revise*

You're lucky, Yeliab - my sky is totally dark.

I just graduated - and let me tell you, these tests are nothing
compared to real life.

Well they seem alot at the moment. I guess next year I'll look back and think "wasn't that first year easy!".

Arg, can't wait for the summer.

*looks up from pile*

Hi One-eye, Yeliab!

Sorry Jay, didn't mean to ignore you, but our w*rk server decided to have a siesta...

IIEM, another caffe latte, please!

*looks at watch*
Oh dear...

i'm off! Sorry that I haven't been very social today, but it's been a terribly busy day! See y'all later!

*runs out the door*

Hi.
So what is happening, anyone wanna see my latest Guide entry? I am pretty proud of it... It is about Oslo of all things, but I figured; hey, h2g2 is supposed to be about everything is it not? So I thought a hitchhikers guide to Oslo was a good idea. Anywayz, IIEM; double espresso please.

*jingle*

Mornin' empty cafè!

IIEM, coffee please.

*sip*

*Washes up*
*Puts v/_\3 on*

<BB<

*enters looking tyred and stressed*
Bluebottle could you explain what a v/_\3 is?

Arg, exam on monday. T, W and T too. Oh what fun.
IIEM, may I have a double expresso to go please.

*picks up drink and heads out of the cafe*

Hi Bluebottle
Do you recon we should tell Yeliab what a teapot is?
How did that rhyme go again?

Ahh it's like that is it. i allways thought it would be round the other way. 3/_\v

*finishes w*rk and leaves for another long weekend, won't be back 'till Tuesday!*

Good luck with the exams, Yeli!

Bye all, have a nice weekend!

*leaves*

Hi, everyone: Jackass in on the tele today! Oh happy joy, I love watching those skaters **** themselves up . Anyway I got a question about the Guide; what does the percentage score beside the Guide entries mean?
IIEM; double Cortado please.
*sits down by window in the couch and hopes someone answers his question*

Happy Friday, everyone. Coffee please IIEM. Can't stay too long. I have a newsletter to write sometime today. They've been bugging me for a week to get it out. Guess I'd better. What's everyone up to this weekend, besides studying?

Well, let me tell you.
I am so lucky that I am stationed (I am in the Army, national duty in Norway) in a place called Setermoen. This place has about 1000 citizens, all spread out over a large area. It is located one hour by plane and 45 minutes by bus NORTH of the Arctic circle.
Things to do in Setermoen:Buy some candy at the local Mix outsale, by groceries at Rimibig store chain in Norway), eat some pizza (not tasty) at Jokern pizza bar, or drink beer in this incredibly small and shitty pub called Jeppes. So, I decided to my self, I am going to watch TV in my room, witch I by the way share with five others.

Know all about the Military thing. I was Canadian Navy, stationed at a radio station 30 miles from the nearest city. If I couldn't get into Halifax, I was stuck in this little town, no place to buy pizza, and not much to do but go to the mess. Wasn't my idea of fun, even then. I really hated it till I went out of my way to meet the locals - mostly fishermen, bootleggers, and their families. They introduced me to lobster, and lobster fishing, smelting, the joy of fresh-caught cod, clam chowder (m-m-m-m), and community baseball games after supper. The place I hated became some of my best memories of my Military years. Hang in there - there's always the hope of a new posting!

'Lo.
