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

you never saw Thor?? but you come from the same neighbourhood, don't you?

contrary to common belief he is a very shy and private deity

that's good

I am a shy and sensitive hippo it's good to have so much in common with Thor

i guess you are both thick skinned too?

uhmmm... well just a bit maybe

you mean some places more than others?

well yes and there is the obvious difference between thick skin and sensitive skin

*makes notes*

hippos make great pets by the way cuddly, friendly, and always willing to help clear full crates out

i will try to keep that in mind. you never know when knowledge like this might come in handy

and there's the ancient line of wisdom: never stand between a hippo and his

i will try to keep that even more in mind

oh never mind I'll have another and I'll sleep

or double .. have two s and sleep twice as long

or .. triple !!

.. drink some more and hibernate

i could do that right now

what .. drink three s ?? oh, I don't know I'll have two

i will have three at least while w*rking

after that it's in the restaurant

and tonight and maybe a few in the pub

and tomorrow it's back on the wagon

talk about Travelogue, wagons and all that

I just had a nerve wrecking train trip ..in a train filled with scum, riff-raff and worse, and now I'll travel to Germany

I will not travel.

I'll just sit behind the wardrobe and try to think of nice and sunny places and such. Maybe even of nice people. Not of any dentists though.

Friend of mine went to Rome. Sunday he visited the Vatican. Only a couple of hours later it was on the news that the pope had lifted the ban on contraceptives. Coincidence?

of course that was no coincidence
