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

Hatifnat, I shudder to think of the reaction your former boyfriend would have if he ever needs an enema or a rectal examination, if a cotton bud can cause such terror...

LOL
hee-hee
Maybe it won't be the end of the world - he's not a virgin any more. He is sort of funny guy, he became a blood-donor because he was fond of medieval medicine at that moment, later on he wanted to become a terrorist and work for something like RAF or IRA or ETA or Gaddafi (luckily for the world he failed). Then he fell in theories of Marcuse and New Left etc etc. I really loved him. But our story ended like the worst mexican soap-opera (if you ever have seen such thing, if not - don't!!!).

Hey - does anyone know where (online) I can get a (white) tee-shirt with "Virgin" written on it in big red letters: I'm thinking along the lines of Virgin Airlines, Cola, etc... you know - their logo.

I looked on their site but couldn't seem to find anything Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong places. The Virgin brand isn't that popular in the midwest United States...

Anyway, at the very least, a shirt like that would be a nice conversation starter. Thanks in advance for any help that I may or may not receive. Heck, just "thanks" in general. And a Merry X-Mas, Boxing Day, New Year etc. to everyone.

Just to let you know I read your post, and I'm sorry but I don't know...I'll let you know if I see any!

If you can't find exactly what you are looking for just cut a stencil yourself, go to the local arts and crafts supply store and buy some fabric paint, and you can make it yourself. More easily done than said.

Copy it into your graphics programm from the website (check travel agents, too), buy a pack of t-shirt printing paper and bob's your uncle. You can iron it onto baseball caps, tote bags or whatever then. Print it onto sticky foil and you can decorate all your books and everything.

Once you get the hang of it, you'll not want to stop. Buy a pack of 10 white T shirts - that's birthday presentts for the whole of 2001 sorted out.

Thanks Magnolia Thunderpussy & Trillian's Child... I'm thinking I'm too lazy to try something like that, but I'll keep it in mind and see if I can't work up enough energy to give it a shot.

Do you think the Virgin companies would be upse if I "borrowed" their logo without permission (after all, I'd guess it's a trademark)? or would they just consider it free advertising?

Cool - thanks!

You *can* get 'Virgin' Tshirts. I know because we were discussing getting sponsorship for the youth club I used to work at - we applied to Virgin, Coke, Pepsi, etc (we were after a replacement fridge - mainly to store fizzy pop to rot the teeth of the young peoples) - but decided against Virgin because it appeared we would be having to wear Virgin T-shirts.

Unsurprisingly, I and the other male helper vetoed the idea... Surprisingly, the couple of female helpers didn't have a problem with it... *shrug*

There you go, Non Juan...contact the company direct!

Well- I ordered a shirt from http://www.virginmega.com. BTW, they're $15 ea. I will still think about making one though - just to see if I can. Thanks again everyone.

$15?
That's about the same price of a h2g2 t-shirt, and I know what I'd rather be advertizing

I'd rather see you without one, hon

slowly getting back to the original subject, I see!

hee-hee-hee, righton, TC!

"The h2g2 Shop has been temporarily closed while we restructure the e-commerce side of the business.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause."

[--- It looks like the H2G2 T-shirt is going to have to wait. That's okay though... I'm really good at waiting ---]

The shop is closed???
*goes off to investigate*

He's right!

I'm glad I ordered that Christmas present when I did!

Well - for our meet I wrote an entry, printed it out in alabaster and goo and applied it to cotton bags and on sticky transparent foil to transparent folders.

I have deleted the entry, but it generally goes on about the meet and then finishes up with www.h2g2.com in large letters for everyone to see at the bottom.

And to quote the book correctly, they should have said

"We apologise for the inconvenience"

If you don't know what I'm talking about, that was not a non seq. But I've forgotten how it relates to what was said before. Probably something to do with making your own logo and ironing it on to your teeshirt.
