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

I won't abuse you. You and the Gook make together Tom and Tim. Ever heard of them?

no. who are they?

Oh!
::Nostalgic atmosphere::
When I was a child, there was a cartoon series, which name I don't remember, and its stars were 2 puppies named Tom and Tim, and their uncle, Tuviah, the flying Helicopter-dog. I loved it! On the end of EVERY chapter he'd fly around and put them into bed, tuck them, and say something like:"Goodnight, Tom and TIm! Goodnight you little rascles!" And they'd sink into their pillows, shut their little eyes slowly, and fall asleep...

They sound a little bit too sweet to be our Tom and Tim

Hi Elly

Hi Dan! Did you get my email?
They do seem too sweet for Tim- now I'm gonna see about Tom.
::Dashes off to UH's space::

A helicopter dog putting two kids to bed- didn't that give you crazy nightmares?

Thanks for the mail, Elly, your reply should be with you now!

(and Inky, that cartoon sounds positively normal alongside 'The Magic Roundabout', 'The Clangers' or 'Chorlton & the Wheelies')

Point taken

Not 2 kids, hun, 2 puppies, who look suspiciously like him, though he's merely their uncle...

Hi hun!
Just telling my sister about you on ICQ...

oo
I still havent downloded that agine..infact I havent even got MSN back!!
but there is always the night shift tonight
thee nice people let me use their phone line you see

That's so kind of them...

whats even better is they give me coffy
(trus me I need it) quite borin really I sit there and wach some kid sleep so they can sleep themselves

That's REALLY kind!
I haven't drank in ages...

I live off the stuff

and it was better whaen I was doin it volenteraly..but now I need the money so I have to ask for it..some how it dosent seem right..oh well lifes like that

el!
you have msn too, bob? does it suck over there as much as it sucks over here?

oh, yes- it sucks equally all over the Globe!

Can't be as bad as ICQ, surely? Opening itself every time one goes online, taking ages to load up, plastering introductory screens all over the place, then *ribbit* it's a 'URL Message' (read 'spam') and you can't delete unless you send it to everyone you've ever met...?

Sorry, rant over!

you can stop ICQ doin that..and iff it bothers you that much set yourself to invisable so then no one can see you at frst adn you can decided whether to go on or not
I liked ICQ while I had it..I just havent got it againeyet..and MSN isnt that bad..at least they are willing to acept your own smily desines, most of them dont
