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

Actually, I believe astrology places Christ in the sign of Pisces, which would make his birthday between February 19th and March 19th. (Give or take a day or two depending on the year he was born...)

i don't want to quibble over such insignificant details

if you want to discuss it, take it up with mel gibson

Actually I meant astronomical data. See what happens why you don't read before you hit that button?

It was something about a star that went supernova and would have appeared (aka Star of Bethlehem) at roughly that time.. don't remember exactly.. it was long ago and only mentioned by someone in passing..

mentioned by a supernova in passing?

are you telling me you associate with s, batty?

even supers?

fascinating!

Oh absolutely! Especially s...

Yay!! The weather is lovely, everything is green and the air smells of the honeysuckle and wisteria that grow wild here...

of course onions also grow wild but they're under ground so you can't smell them..

i don't smell very good at the moment...

wait. that didn't come out right

let me rephrase: i've got a cold

I talked to my mom down in NC earlier this week...she's just mad that the yellow pollen is out in full force right now

aww.. poor Capn.

Tac! long time no type.

Fortunately I don't suffer from allergies so the pollen doesn't affect me unless it's REALLY bad.

This year I'm experimenting to see if my brown thumb has turned green. Ordinarily I can kill plastic plants but I have 3 tomato plants, a variety of herbs and a gypsy carnival rosebush that seem to think otherwise. If my luck holds I might try veggies next season.

*pens a quick note of sympathy to the vegetable world*



What?

I write to vegetables all of the time!

*bonks Michele on the head with an old plastic ficus she killed last year*

Oh ye of little faith!

Don't "bonk" me! It's the veggies that are quaking in their boots!

who are you calling a veggie?

My tomato plants have flowers on them. Yay!!! I'm going to have stuff I actually grew!

::grows beard::

Yeah, but does it have flowers on it?

after a good roll in the hay it might

Not for me - thanks... I have hayfever!

*orders a haystack (of the non-allergenic variety) for the veranda*

Anyone for seeing if we can grow flowers in the Capn's beard?
