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

Please do bewary of bacon-wrapped intrigues. They may be tasty, but they is wriggly and greasy little blighters.

I'm on a diet, anyway

Then they are safe ... for now. But in the middle of a night, when will-power is weak ...

And you read too much 2legs.

So, how is stuff is the household of the beloved Paper Clan? As summer hopefully cools off a smidge ...

We usually don't get summer until midSeptember--and even then, 80 is unheard of Average for right now is mid60s, and we've been running high 50s for what seems like forever, since it's been overcast 95% of the time. What really sucks is that I'll be somewhere nice and dark with lots of sky tomorrow night, but won't see a single meteor, likely

I would have thought you'd have warmer weather than that. Much of our season has been in the high 80's, with humidity it often feels in the low 100's. Thank the heavens for central air conditioning to come home to.

Meteors? I haven't seen any in decades.

Well, the ocean *is* about 4 blocks away, as the crow flies.

Yeah, but just how many crows are silly enough to fly over an ocean? Oh yeah, they might be 'Murican ones. No telling.

As the gull flies, then

Ah, but most gulls that I know by name begin around Cape Spear, Newfoundland (Google, eastern most point in North America)

Got me a cap, genuine plastic pooh on it, says I survived the place.

And not a single one answers to the name of Jonathan. What-ever was Mr Bach on about?

Dust off the two-piece, I have tossed your name into the bikini contest of h2g2.

I suppose I should wander somewhere other than my MP page, then... Link, please? (I know I saw the announcement that the contest was starting up again while I was backlogging, but have a little pity)

Apparently links are not links but links to other links. One has to infer and interpret ...

Here is the main ... A87719980

Here is where I deposited your-self ... F22117843?thread=8285261

After having thought here was a good place ... A87721798

It all gets very confusing and head-swimmy

BB let me know I was nominated, and pointed me to the right place(s)

I think that last 'competition' has swam by ...

So just nudging open a doorway again.

I really need to oil those hinges--that was really screechy.

I'm the techy sort, I really should get a fresh pocket-spray of the WD40 ...
