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

now that i've finished at school
as little as is possible

LOL!!!!

Sounds familiar...

¦M¦

you see what my life was like when I went to scholl was, buisy, unreliable, misrible, a compleate cop for a real education. so i quit early, I think I've mentioned this before but after I was liberated, I felt alot happer and there seemed to be let arguments and I could atualy get some work done, you know I atualy did some almightly maths while I was free.and because of the law I never have to go back EVER! Thanks but no thanks!

-- DoctorMO --

Oh, now I'm jealous... though I guess I wouldn't really have liked being taken out of school...

¦M¦

I wasn't taken I just left one day and said that I wasn't going back, I don't know if the school was worryed but I felt happy after. one thing about schools 'the don't do there job, and that is to educate the growing young people of the present were instead what you get is a factory for people who will be workers, never to know such things as Clasical music, paintings or history, Pholsophy somthing they will never grasp and the art of thinking will be forever lost, why do you think we get Thugs who go around and act before they think, because they can't think, they can't think 'Oh maby doing this would be a bad idea, somone would get hurt''




how are you?

--DoctorMO --

*mutters* I like philosophy...

I'm fine, if a bit sleepy... it's four in the morning and I'm only up now because I'm *cough* err... ahem... downloading something. *glances over shoulder*
But the smoke alarm is annoying me - the battery's running low and it's beeping every so often... oh well. Someone'll put a new one in tomorrow.

¦M¦

Thats important, you no what help when you have a fire, If you live next door the fire sevice.



-- doctorMO --

Well, someone must have put one in, cos it's not beeping any more. Either that or they took it out...

¦M¦

hmmmm, you know I've just read THE book again because I had a few weeks to kill with nothing to do?

-- DocotrMO --

THE book?

¦M¦

well er... its realy 4 books in one, but it's called THE book, think about were you are and then you should know if not then what are you doing on H2G2

4 books??
There are five books in the Hitchhiker Trilogy!!

And I've never heard them referred to as THE book...

¦M¦

five? whats the fith? because I've only read...

The hitch Hykers Guide to the Galixy
The Restraunt at the End of the Universe
Life the Universe and Everything
So long and Thanks for all the fish.

I've never heard of a fith book, although I did hear about "the long dark tea time of the soal" but I didn't think that was apart of the ones with Arther and Ford in.

The fifth is Mostly Harmless.
The Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul is the second and last book about the private detective Dirk Gently. The first book is called Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.

¦M¦

That's OK. I didn't know about it til my eyes jogged in my school library last year... I'd noticed the spine...
Apparantly it was first published in 92.

-- DoctorMO --
