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

Oops, did I forget to mention that the palms are all dried out? Sorry!

Hey, has anyone seen Gwennie? I'm almost at the point of missing her

(...as strange as that may sound )

*Pandora drops her top, then down come the skirt...swan dive into he pool...* "AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!! I ttthoughttt tthis wwwould bbe he-he-heated!" *a dripping wet, nude Pandora climbs out of the freezing pool...wrapping her arms around herself for warmth*
"mari-rae...dddon't even ggo there! Howwww wwil I evvver gget my h-h-hair d-dry?!?" *the chatter of her teeth can be heard all throughout the deck* "Er, Pierce, I forgot my towel." "How 'bout a little something to warm me?"

*Quickly gives Pandora her trusty towel.*

Here, dry off and get dressed again. I think a brandy is in order. My goodness, from now on stick your toe in first! Pierce, please! She's freezing!

"T-t-thanks-s-s...m-m-mari-r-r-ae...I'v-v-ve allllways-s-s beeen the t-typ-pe t-t-t-to jump-p-p in-n-n-n h-h-head-d f-first-ttt!!!"
*wonder how she looks with blue lips?*

Your blue lips are adorable compared to - er, never mind...

That's funny. Who turned off the pool-heater? I'd better check this out. Maybe that's the reason for the palms drying out too?

Meanwhile let's have a hot bowl of something nice. How's about cognac?

*Is feeling very relieved that she doesn't have to go skinny dipping with the lights on.*

*suddenly a lot of lights turn on - both in the room and on the bottom of the big heart-shaped pool*

SURPRIIIIIIIIISE!

Hi mari-rae! All problems solved. Just had to change a fuse. My-my-my - aren't we looking good today

Need a towel? Pandora has yours, remember?

*Feels mortified, as she didn't realize she was sans clothing as yet. But, we can say that she is blushing now from head to toe with acute embarrasement.*

Eeek!

*Jumps behind a withered palm.*

Are you blushing - or is the pool too hot now?

I'm only asking because if it's too hot I could bring you an . (If it is not I'll just turn up the heat )

"Here mari-rae." *Hands her the towel* "It's a bit damp...but it still will sever you well. Now Pierce?!? How many times have I told you not to use hypnosis to get ladies to undress?!?" *Looks at mari-rea* "You know not everyone is as comfy being nude as we are! I just may have to spank you!"

*Wraps the cold damp towel around her.*

Sorry. Its just my upbringing. If I looked as good as Pandora, I might feel differently about it.

*Averts her eyes from Pierce as she talks. She is still blushing.*

"Looking good? Er, thanks...it's all done with mirrors!" "I've been thinking about having the new laser surgrey, it's called the laser bra! They actually pull up the parts that want to go South with a muscle tightening tech. I wouldn't mind being as 'perky' as I was in my youth!" *remembers her mothers words as she burned her bras in the 70's...damnation, mama was right after all*

*Goes over to the light switches and dims them really low. She slides into the now warm pool and begins to swim.*

This is nice.

*Pandora does a cannon ball and splashes water everywhere*
"Ahh...this is more like it! I think I'll practice my butterfly stroke!"
*wonders were Pierce is* "Mari-rea...you look just fine, I don't know why you're so shy? You should see SOME of the gals Pierce drags home! HA!"

This should get me the Pullitzer price - and if not it'll sure look good when it's framed and hung on the wall of my office!

*Pierce is lying on the bottom of the pool with a scuba-outfit and a watertight camera*

*giggle* "Glad I shaved my legs!"

"What was that flesh colored streak?!? Has mari-rae left in a hurry?!?"

*no, she is diving down to the bottom of the pool where she grasps Pierce's face mask and removes it. She grabs the camera too and swims for the surface. At the top, she tosses the camera to Pandora.*

Catch, Pan!

, Pierce!

*no, she is diving down to the bottom of the pool where she grasps Pierce's face mask and removes it. She grabs the camera too and swims for the surface. At the top, she tosses the camera to Pandora.*

Catch, Pan!

, Pierce!

*Pandora jumps like a dolphin, catching the camera & opening the back all in one fel swoop. She pulls the film from the camera & rubs the film along the side of the pool as she goes to fetch three towels, two skirts, two baggy blouses and ...an oxegyn mask for Pierce...when mari-rae get done with him he'll be lucky if AIR is ALL he needs!*

"DON'T STAY IN TOO LONG KIDS...YOU'LL GET ALL WRINKELY!"

*calls down to the water...all that can be seen are bubbles*.."hey Pierce...you surely won't get a 'noble' prize for this stunt! HA!!!!!"

*begins to think they've been under a bit too long* "Ah well, if they're not up by the time I drink this martini, I shall dive in & pull both to safety...oh hum."
