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

I like meaningful conversation.

ioreth, forgive an aged english-type person, but is the DC metro as bad as the London Undergound? (I assume the DC metro is a sort of rapid transit system ( the LU isn't (rapid that is))

The DC Metro is rapid compared to trying to drive on DC's surface streets, if memory serves...

~Irving

Ah! Now I understand. Just like London; it's quicker to walk!

Something like that

*Walks in for a morning double espresso, checks around and decides his best bet is the IIEM.*

There appears to be a faint smell of burnt Mike in here.

*In which case, Bluebottle better wash up*

Hello every one, managed to get up at 11 this morning, well its better than 12! haha
crawled into college just to talk to you guys!, (I have an internet connection at home but i have to pay for that)
Thanks for the advice about the girl, staying away far away from her!
Oh and can i have an anticoffee please Lil?
need to wake myself up before i start to finish some asignments!

Yo mike, so your from the north, is it true that you have a funny accent up there, or is it yust the air?

well must see you later, the people at the study centre are giving me funny looks, i think they think h2g2 is a chat service,

well see you lot on friday

Hi & Bye Fiend.

Haven't been here for ages. My morning coffee has worn off, and I medically need another one. Arg...coursework to do for tommorrow... I have to do it today, as tommorow's the last day before the holidays, so we'll all have some serious marathon pubbing to do.

So what are you doing here?
Addicted, aren't you?

Yep, you sussed it. That's why I started at the clinic.

Hi everybody.
*Sees Mike is gone from pentagram and sweeps up sand* There are pawing marks here -- Ferarri must have let him out.
*goes to IIEM for morning tea and helps herself to an apple spice donut*

You know, I am beginning to wonder what this place will be like when the summer holidays arrived. I fear we are going to lose a lot of regulars. Even our Mike is going to Australia...

Morning Lil, I suspect that there might be one or two large parental phone bills come summer and us goofing off w*** types will still be hanging round (if the PHBs don't get us).

*Waits for the IIEM to dispense Lil's tea then asks for a double espresso*

Oh yeah, the _workers_ will still be around, as ever.
*sniffs*
That's not burnt Mike, that's the campfire.

You're right. See - I'm working now.

(Man, what a lot of backlog there was)

*Groan* Lots of RL work today Very little time for café-ing. And I fear that it's not only regulars who won't be around the Aroma much this summer. I myself don't spend much time online when at home, though I plan to do a bit more this summer than usual. So if I'm not around as often... that's why

*Sets IIEM to autopilot and serves everyone here a fresh coffee*

~Irving

thanx, Irv.
Hopefully I'll still be around tho' RL w**k can be unpredictable....I've been lucky so far.

BTW, Irv, when does your term end? On the campus where I work, tomorrow is the last day of classes, but then exams start. I'm not sure how long they run, but I think it is pretty close to the end of the month.

I like the Metro - and I didn't mind the Underground. Compared to the Philadelphia subway system it's sparkling clean, and zippy, and just a pleasant experience.

I'll take hot cocoa...
Should be at school but I was "sick" today so I could catch up on my sleep.

This summer I'm gonna be travelling around Israel, so nothing from me. But when I get to kibbutz I should be good for next year.
