re posting 18:

i did not only mean 'the others', bel. i meant your hubby as well. sorry for not being clearer about that

Stanley who?

Err, no.

Sorry.

And GB - Sorry. I'm sorry. I'll be more careful next time.

you will find the answer to your question in the good 'the restaurant at the end of the universe', chapter 24, moonhog

that *and* 42

Have to have a look when I get home...

Intrigued...

Pierce!

oops, , forgot to mention that stanley h tweedle does not fit into this equation

but the explains where all of the planet golgafrinchams telephone sanitizors, hairdressers and the like went

I had the HHGG in mind when I posted that, but then when Moonhogg asked I thought my memory isn't what it used to be and searched for it in the book. Couldn't find it , so went for Stanley Tweedle instead, from the LEXX, who, as far as I recalled, was a telephonist of the second order - only that I now found he was a security guard.

brilliant so you did not only confusulate me but everybody else including yourself? way to go, bel

What's a never-ending bike?

RF

* Realises this was probably asked in post 2.

It's a tridem - that never ends.

and right then and there the thread stopped dead in mid air

But you know how it is, Pierce: after all is said and done...

yes, dear: b'elana still is #1

Wrong grammar there, Pierce, you mean still made (post) #1.

nope. i meant what i said, dear

Wow, I go away for a few days, and when I come back, B'El is riding a bike in a tight skirt.
(My bike never wears skirt of any sort; which part does the garment cover?)
Something about riding a bike in space, too. (Didn't E.T. do that? Oh, wrong movie... Now I am confused.)

Glad your sons provided you with a happy Mother's Day. B'El. You deserved it.

Thanks, Pierce and hstwrd.

Actually, mother's day is no big deal in my family, so it made a nice change that my son remembered it.

my mother loathes mothers day

prolly stems back from when a great-grandmother kicked some local nazis down her stairs

they came to offer her a 'mutterverdienstkreuz' (medal of honour for giving birth to more than four children) but she shouted at them: "I'm no prize sow! "

(which was actually pretty couragious of her. you could get killed for less but they were prolly afraid of becoming the laughing stock of her city )

What a gracious lady!
