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

Hi there, I thought I'd drop by too. What do you think of h2g2 then?

Hello Twophlag Gargleblap. (If you do have ingrowing toenails you want to get them seen too asap . Peta mentioned your page and I thought I would come along and have a wee shuftey Your articles are suberb, some of the best I have read on the site. So more more more, please Oh work calls....

Hello! Just dropping by to see what's going on. So, having read some of your articles and your interests, as well as your job, are you really just like Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting?

Or are you more like Jeff Goldblume in Jurassic Park?

(sorry- you would have had to have read the screen play, which so few have )

Hello!!!!

*giggles* ... They have arrived en masse! Prepare to be bombarded!

Loonytunes looking quite bored and somewhat detached, but then penguins
often do, pops in to say hi

Matt Damon stole my idea for a movie script, damn him!

Actually I'm glad you guys dropped in. Particularly gratified some of you dug the articles posted here. I'll go check them now to see if any interesting debates have developed.

I'm writing a book and hoping to use H2G2 as a way of refining the work in progress... periodically I'll be posting bits from it on this page or as guide entries, and I'm always looking for advice, criticism, praise, monkey feces, or whatever.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop in! I love this site and everything it stands for, and will offer any time I can to make it an even better place to visit!

*arrives huffing and puffing*
Sorry I'm late!
*mutters something about time zones*

Hi Twophlag If you are looking for advice and (friendly) criticism for something you are writing, there is no doubt that you've come to the right place! All you have to do is ask and there will be several of us falling all over each other to help you.

In fact it seems to have already begun..........

Indeed! I need to set up a bar here so I can pass out to everyone. Ah well. Perhaps I can offer this instead; go back to my page and click on the link that let's you see all articles I've written. One of them has an entry on Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters and gives you the recipe so you can make one. (no, really! these drinks are GOOD).

Thanks again so much for dropping in... I'll be visiting all your pages shortly. Be sure to leave me a note here if you want feedback on anything in particular, i'd be more than happy to oblige.

Cheers

Matt Damon is a lot better looking than I am.

Trust me, we can never have enough bars around here

I went and read your Pan Galactic article, as well as the conversation between you and Nonnie about it. I think an article about the bar itself is a wonderful idea - the fact that it even exists makes me want to move to Canada....or at least visit. Say, you guys have snow up there, don't you? Since I moved to Texas I forgot what it looks like.

If you do decide to write about the bar, let me know when you are finished.......

Bars bars bars... well, if you need some coffee after the bar to cure your hangovers, I can at least help with that!

Sorry I'm in late, all. I wonder what took so long. It must be thursday...

but from what i have seen so far, not near as charming as you
monsy

A guy's gotta get bye some how

*grabs a thimble of whatever's going 'round and lifts it in the air* .. To Charm over Beauty!

To quote a joke I just received (and yes, Monsy, I'll probably be eventually adding it to one of those other pages ), "I'm trying to picture you with a personality."

On the subject of beauty, I am moderately overweight, 230 lbs, just enough to really feel fat without actually oozing out of all my clothes, and I have made this observation;

people who would NEVER dare to say anything even remotely demeaning on the subject of race, religion, gender politics, or whatever might be the bandwagon of the day, nevertheless LEAP to the chance to make fun of overweight people without even realizing they are doing it. Fat people as a class are exposed to more open ridicule, derision, and discrimination than ANY other remaining group.

I particularly take offense to 'health nazis' who insist that the eventual health risks associated with my choice to enjoy a cheeseburger somehow constitutes a moral flaw in my character. Because I am a smoker, I also encounter a lot of people who would dare to broach me about the effect I am having on air quality, even though I don't own a car, never use hairspray, and usually stay home from work when I'm sick.

This kind of thing has to stop, i swear. The next skinny person to pinch my midriff and make some offhand comment about my eating habits is going to get broken into skinny little matchsticks when I sit on him.

Hmm... well, there are quite a few of us that could stand to loose wait... we either do or we don't.

I know I never lose weight... I hold more water than a camel!

Bah, I think the world needs MORE fat people! Trample the skinnies! Burn the health spas! Vive la revoloution!
