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

i think paper airplanes are really cool. i used to have a big book of different airplane patterns so you could could make um look cool. i used them all up though

Cloughie, I've run out of papers so I can't test your instructions. I'll try tomorrow evenig, tho'

Sorry I work in a paperless office. (yeah right). Tried to fold up my VDU but it wouldn't give.

I have a rare form of dyslexia which makes it impossible for me to follow engineering instructions. I also cannot construct clothing from paper patterns or do origami, unless I am shown how in person. If somebody were to come and demonstrate this for a few hours, I would pick it up, and it looks like it might be fun...

I wish I could help. Maybe you could get a friend to try it?

It really is a lot of fun, once you get the hang of it. It's one of the few things I learned in college that I haven't forgotten. Not that I'm a College Grad or anything.

And you are pretty funny DD. I almost laughed 'till I dropped my beer(highly unlikely!)!

Great entry cloughie! Really good idea...

Great idea! However, I think my dog would prefer chasing the standard-issue paper airplane.......

Hey, you got a reply from Peta! Just don't let her know we're using her H2G2 credit card at the Sheraton.

Yeah, bonus! I posted something on her page. Hi Peta!, thanks for stopping in. No, I haven't seen your credit card.

That's good.

It means I've still got it here then.

Boy you're fast, DD!!

It's lunchtime here. It was just top of my list to reply. As for one-lines it's a Irish thing.

How do you do that?! Yeah, I know lots of Irish folk, I'm a German - Scotch cross. That makes for an interesting background.

I keep refreshing my page once I answer everything that needs to be answered. That way I have a fair idea what's going on in h2g2land.

I do that too, but my connection (along with my typing!!) is too slow.

I suppose my typing speed does help me out a little as well. I can get off two or three good sharp replies in a minute if I'm not responding to a really long post.

OK, now we're loading up my beautiful guide entry with drivel. Let's get a drink somewhere!

Sheraton?

Yeah, I'm not really into brawling right now.
