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

Dear
Pirate alexander le Gray,

I watched the programme and did not understand what it was about.

I wish that I could dance my friend. However, as my hips no longer exist, thank goodness I am in a wheelchair because I can at least get around the flat on wheels. !!

Nice of you to send me that entertaining news of that chap who basically is a rather nasty person and who cheats the government. !!!

not only that, it appears he is cheating the entire population of his country

Wot, he goes for a dance and gets to go to prison for it; I keep getting told by my Dr to get some exercise, it will help your heart to get better.

I tell him no way, cos ya end up in prison for that. So I just helps myself to the booze

Hope is what keeps a lot of people alive. Somebody (I don't remember who) said that all of us need three things:

1. something to do
2. someone to love
3. something to look forward to

I have 1 and 3 locked away, and I choose to love many rather than turn anyone away unloved. I look forward to enjoying the company of my friends on H2G2, and trying to think of ways to make the world a better place (a slow process, but I hope to have enough time to make a good start. )

1. Learn photography, or how to see.
2. Myself.
3. s**t.

That's wots missing. walk not run or I go to jug for the rest of my life.

Ah but I do like talking with interlectuals like yourselves.

You are one of the most fascinating people I've ever known!

So are you Paul, I'm just mad.

Occasionally I am, too.

ah, perfect, this brings me to the second thing i learned from Douglas Adams:

"the point is that there is no point in driving yourself mad trying to stop yourself going mad. you might as well give in and save your sanity for later"

i have lived by this since i first read it and i have to tell you, the man was a bl**dy genius!

Yes, he was a genius. I cab't figure out some of what he was saying, but that's exactly the effect that a genius would have.

thanks, Pirate. You're awesome

I saved my sanity as instructed, but I've forgotten where I hid it.

LML you are awesome yourself

paulh, you wont be needing it here

What are these rumors about your leaving us, Pierce? If you find my sanity while you are away, could you please wrap it safely in a and bring (or send) it back to me? I've missed it.
