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

Hmm.

*Someone* has struck upon a catchy idea here.

If I could enlist the proper amount of participation, this could be a fun competition round here.

Hmmm.

OK, so, um, what exactly is a random self-portrait?

And I was supposedly the one with the idea I'd like to know too

Erm, more or less a really silly self-portrait, is the idea. More or less.

Like this, say.

I shouldn't show that to people. LOL!

Ah. I don't have many digital piccies of myself, but I'll see if I can find something. If not, I'll draw one.

This is the best I can do, I'm afraid:

Trouble is, although I look silly, that's the way I always look. If I ever get around to buying a digital camera I'll do one of me attempting to look stupid.

Yaaaay! Saved to file... now to get more people to play...

Because without *lots* of people giving us silly pictures of themselves, what's the point, really?

Okay, yeah, it's still fun.

Yikes! The smilies have gone all spooky...

Of course they'll probably turn back to normal when Halloween has been and gone.

Um, I'm sure I had something to say here...

Oh yes, you mean you really are compiling some sort of random portrait page?

Not yet.

I'd probably do better to demand the attention of froods, as H2G2 is just so very full of people who won't listen to me, and at Floor42 there are only about 200...

Well, I've done my bit on my home page. I have a feeling nobody ever visits it though.

What happen to the fish, by the way? (Hmm, that's nice). I wonder what Shim's fish looks like at the moment?

I checked about half an hour ago. It's also a fishy skeleton.

But a blue one

I went to find an example too, I didn't notice it being all that blue. Perhaps I'm going blind, or losing my mind but it certainly didn't seem of that hue.

It's finally happened... he's gone completely mad.

Who, me? Surely not, that happened years ago.

Yeah but we didn't know you then, so we've only just discovered it Jonny

Yes, but you weren't always mad in a rhymey sort of way, were you?

Oh come now Ant, I can't believe it wasn't self evident from the first time we conversed.

That's where you're wrong, KM, it's just that the rhymey part of my madness only rears its ugly head on Halloween Eve. Between 5 and 6pm (BST).

Oh.

I didn't even notice the rhymeing thing till you pointed it out, so I must be going mad too
