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

We've got all these conversations going, more than ever before, but I believe they all revolve around our endless love for one another.

While that's all spunky-dorey with me, why don't we just have a straight discussion/conversation, like in the olden days. Like, uh, I've got some stuff in my journals I'd like to talk about, then then we'd talk about that there not here. So here we..... talk...... about.......stuff......

OK. Um. Do you have any ideas for a Guide Entry I can write? 'Cos I don't. No, no. Mike is not my brain. Damn.

I've already written about me, and did a naff job, so skip that!
Well, think of the things you enjoy in life and write about them. What do you enjoy in life, Jo?

What? Apart from you?

Hmm, what stuff do you mean? Hobbies or what?

Hobbies, interests, stuff like that. Most people start off writing about their hometown. I wrote about things that interested me, then wrote more guide entries about individual aspects of that thing.

Ultimately, go for whatever you feel comfortable writing about. Don't force yourself.

OK...

I live in the Forest Of Dean - I shan't give the village because it's so small that if you tried to track me down you could walk up to any door in ******* at random and it would probably be mine.
I - and this is going to sound weird - I write my own language but I never get very far because I keep starting again.
I guess I can count sailing as a hobby 'cos I do it as often as I can and I enjoy it.
My favourite books of all time are The Hitchhiker's Guide Trilogy and something called Mister God, This Is Anna, which though centered around Christianity, could equally apply to any religion or faith. It's a true story and it's wordlessly amazing.
I'm pretty easy on music tastes. Sometimes I flick through my Dad's old vinyl records and choose a few to play. I found Journey Of The Sourceror by The Eagles. That was a good find. I like Savage Garden when I'm so depressed that it almost cheers me up. I like Madonna but NOT the earlier stuff.
My main ambition is to buy Dirge's Morris Minor!
(Actually my main ambition is to introduce you to my parents and carry on in the right way but it's pretty close.)
I was bidding at about £400 before my Dad realised what was happening and called off the deal. My Dad says £50 on account of it missing a vital part (ie. the gear box).
I, like my mother before me, have dreams of living in a bus.

Anything else? Appearance? Hmm?

Well, sounds like you have ample material there. Unless you want to submit anything, or have something people can just stumble across whilst searching for The Eagles or whatever. What do you feel?

And you were going to buy this car for £400? Now I've heard everything!

*shrugs*

He bought it for £50 and the engine was £75.

S**t, that's more than I can ever afford! Think yourself lucky, young lady.

And you've drawn a blank for writing material. Do you really want to do it or does it seem hard work?

I have a half finished article on angels, which started off well but I can't think of any more to put and afraid of ending lamely I just haven't ended at all.

And would you be keen to pass this over for inspection to somebody who has over 50 official entries with his name on it?

*shrugs*

Alright. I'll e-mail it you tommorrow. I gotta go now.

For the record, I logged onto MSN at 9:48pm approx. Ok, we'll discuss your work in email, yeah? Asteroid Lil did a great job with two of mine this way

I like Lil.

OK - for the record. I logged in around 10 to 9 with no problems. And waited for about an hour. But, hey!

Only 15 minutes late! Punish me!

(and at the time of posting this my email thing don't wanna receive anything)

Why not?

Cos Outlook Express is strange like that. I'll never understand computers. Still, it seems to be working fine, for now...

What happened to our e-mail thread?

Haven't I sent a reply yet? Well, one reason is that Hotmail won't let me in . And I'm sure I did send I repkly....I must have forgotten again.

Anyway, this guide entry of yours. You gonna let me see it?

To the best of my uncertain knowledge, I sent it to your freeserve addy...

I'll send my article to that address now.
