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

Luckily, you don't have to worry about those rednecks, Frood You just have to worry about Hypatia's ghastly hot teddy bears with bombs and toxic sludge in the drinks.

Well, now that I've given you the opportunity to insult me yet again, I feel that my job here is done. I have to work on some very tedious reports. So while you are having an actual day off and dreaming up more pathetic, inaccurate comments about my lineage I shall drag myself to my office and try to wade through a mountain of paperwork.

I shall take the with me to protect me in the event the Ohio People's Sheep Brigade decides to storm the 735's.

You should both consider yourselves lucky not to have a Charlie McCarthy in your states political rosters. The shame is almost unbearable

*offers Hyp a aswell.*

They're good for chasing off varmints.

oh and have a too. They're good for the skin.

Yeah, you got the short end of that thing there, Spy...

I wasn't so much insulting your family as I was insulting Harry Truman.
By the way, do you know how many elections have won by Ohioans in landslides? Seven. Truman squeaked by. Harry Truman smells like

I hear he had very good skin, though

Strange as it may sound, we all owe Mrs. Truman a certain amount of respect. It was her own recipe that brought our beloved fudge brownie into the spotlight.

Think of the impact that those delicious morsels have had on our culture, delighting children and hippies alike and bridging economic and cultural gaps like nothing else

They are pretty delicious...

And old Harry was a fan of the Dodge automobile, prefering to drive himself rather than rely upon chauffeurs.

And if memory serves his wife ran the whitehouse kitchens and meatloaf was a regular part of the menu as well as other simple fare that we all enjoy on a daily basis.

*whistles and looks very polite and diffident in an English way*

Try a 'special' brownie, that put a grin on that proper English face

I think I'd kill myself if I enjoyed meatloaf on a daily basis.

Kat, don't listen to these folks. If you want to do something with yourself here, I think you should just politely, and English-ly say 'Harry Truman sucks'.

hmm, can I say, from an Australian standpoint, that Macarther never did return. nasty american politicians.

MacArthur, you mean?
Well, he was a meanie. I don't mind saying he sucks too. Almost as much as Truman. And Missouri. And Hypatia's family. And libraries.

See? I know how to stay 'on message'

I don't know who I mean, just he had a snappy uniform, a clean tie and no idea where he was at the time. like most politicians doing important things really...

and I like libraries.

Well, that could be anyone at any time anywhere, my little hobbit friend.

You like libraries, eh?
I'm going to get some cement boots and put them next to the waterfall grotto...

Look, no pikcing on me. I ain't been well lately.

In fact I may be contagious...

*sneezes over monitor*

Much as I hate to admit it, and I do, H may be right.
I'll send over my s. They have lollipops and everything

Of course I'm right. Everyone but you easily recognizes all of my sterling qualities - including my rightness. And the superior nature of libraries.

Frood, it is hanging around with smelly Ohioan sheep that has brought on your illness. It nearly killed Don Knotts. I take regular allergy shots which enables me to chat with Jodan without being....ahem....bugged.

A plague o'er both your houses.

I was hoping you'd be working for a little while longer so I could distract you with my cold hard facts about the greatness of Ohio Presidents and middling, suckish nature of the Missourian President.

Y'know Wilson kept sheep on the White House lawn. That may be his redeeming quality.

I am working. I am currently waiting for my financial stuff to print off.
