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

We've been getting a lot of September 11 stuff here too. I have steadfastly avoided watching the majority of it. The exception was a program which went into detail about why the WTC towers collapsed (from an engineering point-of-view).

That's the same program I've been watching! I've avoided watching most footage of the incident since the day it happened, but at this point, the documentaries plastered all over the airwaves today have filled in the gaps I wanted to know.

It's still very difficult to grasp this.

*suddenly *

I'm going to *try* this one more time.

*thunk*

... of course, it would help if I turned off the television in the bedroom and stopped watching mentally stimulating stuff about the WTC.

It seems you helped me to get sleepy by *not* stimulating me mentally, ER. One post from you is the equivalent of a sleeping pill.



ER Goodnight, I think.

Goodnight AW

I think she finally fell asleep.....


I hope she woke up in time to go to w**k this morning!

I suppose you're headed to the beach this morning/night, ER....





Hey, that means while he's gone the rest of us can do all kinds of things in his fan club that he'd never allow otherwise!



*begins tidying up before hanging some frilly pink curtains in the thread*

It's 3 a.m. and Evil Roy has left the building....







and gone to the beach.

See you in a week or two.

::positions armed guards to stop the girly-fying of the forum::



Okay, turn out those lights, make sure the gas is off, lock all the doors and windows and turn off that computer......

*prepares tranquilizer dart for armed guard*

*takes aim*

*shoots*


Got him! He should be dropping like a rock any seco....



*armed guard hits the floor*

Ok, someone wanna help me pull him out of the way? He'll be out for at least a week, don't wanna have to step over him every time we go in and out of the thread do we?

I said turn that computer off!!!!!

Oh, the futile efforts.....


Aren't they cute when they try to be so macho?

I've learned to say you're cute ... in a manly sort of way to keep them from getting annoyed at being called cute ...

::helps drag armed guard into the cupboard::

Now let's spruce this place up a little!

::starts measuring for curtains::

So what do you think would look best in here?

French Provincial furniture, or Victorian?

Definitely Victorian! You can jam a lot of frufru into a Victorian motif ...

Quite true....


Now, what color should we paint the walls? I was thinking a nice lavender to go with the frilly pink curtains...

Lavender on the top with a nice floral print wallpaper halfway up, I think ...

::brings in the lamps with the tassel lampshades::

Oh, nice touch!

I have lots of ruffled doilies we can put on these lovely old victorian tables, I think they'll be just the thing!

*stumbles into thread and looks around with suprise at the victorian decorating, fears she may have travelled back in time*

Oh no, not at all!

We've just decided that while ER's gone for the next week or 2, we should spruce the place up a bit - it needs a woman's touch, don't you think?

::puts lavender sachets in all the drawers::

Oooooh, nice touch!

*sprays rose scented perfume in the closets*
