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

Sorry for the brick through window, tried knocking but you didn't hear me.

I have noticed, that I do not have you in my friends listtherefore I ask your permission to do so. I don't just do it as that would not be good manners

Of course. The more friends, the merrier.

I'll go and see if I can get that doorbell fixed. Don't worry about the window, it was getting stuffy in here anyway.

Cheers!

Still working on how to abbreviate my screen name. CRE or Cai would work, although "Elk" might probably be more befitting to a fool.

I tend to be a perfoolionist: I take my daftness very serious.

Firstly! Thank you.
2nd-ly Caiman Raptor Elk! (notice the capitals )works ok for me
ferdly! "perfoolionist: I take my daftness very serious"
I live by that standard have you ever had a spare week to read my P/S ?

You're welcome.

Thanks for not abbreviating me.

As a matter of fact I did have a look at your personal space (more than once), though not the whole week. Some bits kept running away from the screen. I think I know where the "Chaos" bit comes in. The "Animal" must be a Yorkshire black sheep, I guess.

Which part of Yorksire do you come from? (walked across over Wainwright's coast-to-coast years ago (twice))

"Animal" came via Muppet's, apart from my long hair at that timebut because of my curvature of the spine - I have "normal arms/legs but short trunk so whereas "humans" hands reach to about their pocketsMINE reach to my kneecapshence" I got the nickname at where I worked because I could mimic Animal's voice off

I'm in Pontefract near Leeds

disrespectful to abbreviate friends namesunless IE: Al is preferred to Alan etc

The "Chaos" came as many years ago, a friend and me "designed" a stage actfor comedy magic etc - Dr Meyhem and Professor Chaos - Butas we were planning it out - he got married and end of!!!

That is funny. My body structure is quite opposite. I have a relatively long back (although I can fortunately still reach into my pockets). My trouble starts when I have to sit in the back of a car. Usually the roof is in the way.

As you can read on my P/S my screen name is the result of my hobby of making anagrams, so in a way, it is possible to derive my real name from it. I love word play.

I also have another old time nickname which is "Koning Jus" which translates as "King Orange juice" hailing back from the time I was on a diet that included not drinking alcohol like the rest of the students. I drank at the same rate the others drank and could tell the brand of by taste.

I live in the lovely but unpronounceable city of 's-Hertogenbosch (something like Sairt-owe-chen-boss (CH as in loch). It means "The duke's forest") in The Netherlands.

"it is possible to derive my real name from it" That means having to think!and that's why! I never get headaches

I look at "life" this way = I put my real name into google and in 3.2 secs (or thereabouts) 2,400,000 links came up BUT! There's only 1 me! Animal/Prof Chaosand there's NO CHANCE of me being cloned

's-Hertogenbosch - I will settle for a "Dutch" friend(if you were born there of course)

It wasn't the thinking that got me headaches, the migraine did that, thus the addiction.

Just found out something interesting. I put my real name and my screen name into google consecutively and both yielded about the same number of hits. And most of my real name hits weren't me.

"Dutch" is OK for me since I moved around within the Netherlands quite a lot (parents from the West, born in the North, moved to South, then East, currently South of the centre...)

With NO disrespect for that part of europe, I don't really know who to call what (if you follow me ?) Holland/Netherlands and maybe other definitions ? of people from around that area.

I'm only a whisky or vodka drinkerit's an antiseptic you knowso I drink for medical reasons only

F1926355?thread=4064614

just one of a few about "me" as such and who I am

Lucky it wasn't a humpback whale.

I too have a "stay positive" approach to life. (and I did have long hair for some time)

Definition wise: The Netherlands is the whole of the 13-province country, (North- and South-)Holland are only two of those, who used to steal the show (and other stuff) during the golden age of colonialism and slave trading and are thus still dominating the international PR campaign. As such, I do not live in Holland, but in North Brabant (where most of the tech happens).

As I say to many - I'm proud to be a Yorkshireman 1st - Therefore I'm not English/British and I'm not a European.

I hate how "my" country had the last "empire" and treated it's "subjects"
