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

How lucky can one guy be?
I spooned her and she spooned me
Like a fellow once said:
Ain't that a spoon in the head?

Once upon a time, there were three spoons ...

"Thou shall spoon thy parents"

[10 Commandments, King Spoon edition]

They dined on mince, and slices of quince,
Which they spooned with a runcible spork
(Edward Lear)

"Do not go gently into that dark spoon"

read the backlog its not that big yet

A spoon, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitch hiker can have.
You better know were this is from

Must be an eating house somewhere or other.

A four-spoon place maybe?

If I have seen further it is because I have spooned on the shoulders of giants.

Verily, ye first law of spoon dynamics sayeth: The increase in the internal energy of a spoon is equal to the amount of energy added by heating the spoon, minus the amount lost as a result of the work done by the spoon on its surroundings.

That reminds me that the coefficient of linear expansion is the increase in length per unit length of a spoon when it's heated through one centigrade degree.

Let's not forget the Spoonck Constant:

The fundamental constant equal to the ratio of the energy of a spoon of energy to its frequency.

this is interesting but I gotta go
So long and thanks for all the spoons

thanks you guys... you really spooned me up!!

speaking of that
spoon me up Scotty
full power to the spooners target their foward warp spoon

Don't give in to the dark spoon, Luke... use the Spoon!

Who can forget those great spoon moments in literature? Like Tom Sawyer spending all day whitewashing his spoon and the great scene where he, Huckleberry Finn and Jim the runaway slave sailed down the mighty Mississipi river on a spoon?

Or Anne Frank, spending years hidden from the Nazis in an attic, writing on a spoon.

Or the tear-jerking moment when young Oliver Twist holds up his bowl and beseeches "Please Sir, can I have a spoon?"

oh yes, and the Spoon of Dorian Grey...

and Wuthering Spoons...

and A Tale of Two Spoons!!

These are true classics!!

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-spoon decree This one has to be worth another airing (post 37 & another at 40): http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/brunel/F19585?thread=199735&skip=20&show=20

It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, a spoon, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.
