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

No, I meant THE the usual.

Thanks, Lil.

Front page? Where's that? I don't think I have a link to that one...

You're right, it is like a haiku. OK I'll give it a shot...

Woke up this mornin'
Feelin' kind o' stiff
Slept all night on the sofa
And it's made me play this riff
I got the
stayed-up-too-late-at-h2g2
and fell-asleep-on-the-sofa-watching-TV-once-again
blu-u-ues

coffee for ccourtney ---------> c(~)

ox, that is bloody brilliant.

simulpost, redbeard: you get more points for following the classic form

Perhaps that is where blues crosses over into jazz...

Hi, Ox.. Nice one. I was still busy composing mine when you posted yours

Yes, it could be the crossover from blues to jazz...
What yours couldn't be is country -- the meaning is too complex

I wrote one once, but I wouldn't broadcast it on here.
The lyrics are dodgy to say the least, the content is down right
disgusting. However it used to go down well at the gigs I used to play. (i should get away with this at least) It was called

Necrophilia Blues.

B-17 (who's not really here )

Ioreth, what did the IIEM give you?

*Ook picks his cup off the shelf with one long arm and holds it out, trying to look appealing*

Ok, keed -- IIEM, one banana tea and a mango, please. Pierrot, nuts?

afternoon all,
i'm just stopping in on my lunch break.. i have this incredible urge for a rootbeer float, IIEM, is that possible, please?

mmmmm coffee good, thank you. o.k. heres my try at the poem thing

Worked last night till 2:00a.m.
woak up late for work today today
can't wait to leave work
and go have a beer.

hows that

great. and if you don't mind my asking, where do you work?

-----------> root beer float. Mmm, looks good.

Ox and redbeard, you might be interested in a researcher who has recently registered as U133687 -- is a student at the University of Beijing.

courtney, that submission was ... to the point.

thanks lil, and IIEM. now i better get back to work. bye all!

*puts IIEM on autopilot*

Well, I must do errands and all. See you guys later then!

See you later, Lil. Thanks for the heads up.
Bye Shika

Hmmm.. I've got a few hours of RL to take care of as well, so I better take off. See you Courtney and Ox and all.

Thanks for the encouragement, I work in an office during the day and at a bar at night. I am a busy little beaver. I usually get to log on during the day at the office.

*stands up and stretches* It's a lovely time to take a stroll. Bye, all.

I hope you are all having a cool time here. Asteroid Lil is online right now, but her ISP is being inconvinient, so she might be a few hours getting back to you all. Keep On Growing.

Inconvenient is an interesting choice of word. I was able to log on and access mail and get on IM (where I contacted Quorthon and got him to leave that messsage), but I could not access ANY web page whatever. Inconvenient, all right. Euphemistic lad, our Quorthon.

And I see the place is perfectly quiet. Oh well, I never got a chance to read the morning papers.

Peppermint tea in my mug please IIEM

::feels guilty because she forgot to wash it up yesterday::

Hello Ook, sorry, I don't know how to play scrabble. If Lil comes in (or indeed anyone else who knows) could you pass on a message for me. I just can't seem to find anything in the guide entries about uploading pictures to home pages. I'm trying to put a link to the World Wide Fund for Nature's save the tiger campaign on my page. If anyone could tell me how to do it I'd be really grateful
