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

Gah, sunny all morning then as soon as the washing machine nears the completion of its cycle, it clouds over.

Could have been worse, you might have gone to the trouble of putting all the washing out on the line, (half) an hour earlier - have made all the effort, but it's not had time to dry much at all

Looking for:

A humanist philosopher called sounds-like-Masler, who thought that the protection afforded by a roof over your head and food were all you needed to live. Osteo and I agreed, that he'd made the assumption of reasonable health, without which it is increasingly hard to provide those two essentials.

Who he?

True.

Not heard of this philosopher I'm afraid.

Clearly, Imnexdor is back ... hope ah er um, y'know ...

Maybe what he meant was a philosophical comment by someone who's not known as a philosopher. My usual stance, normally a reliable one, is to assume that I'm the only person who doesn't know or hasn't heard of (whatever) but this time it's let me down. No matter, I'll ask next week - we're going to be having some great conversations.

So far, I've suggested he meet my tenant, as she's intelligent, probably brunette and French; thereby ticking some boxes. His wife may not be enamoured of my attempts to change the world, but she's got nothing to worry about

That's a buggins innit ... I blame the cyber cake which must have had the wrong mix of magic ingredients (but you don't have to agree)

Yeah verily, probably not for long but I can turn my head to the right, at last

Good, that's progress

Have you heard about this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-11223457 ?

The twits...

G'night!

Twits is too kind. I heard it on PM, I think, or possibly the 6 o'clock news. Totally agree, an utterly ill-judged, ill-timed and intentionally offensive thing to do. Also cowardly: why don't the entire congregation charter a plane for themselves and their bulk supply of Korans, and take themselves off to Tehran for their bonfire bash?

There's something about religion, brainwashing and mental health ...

Oh and btw, I've popped something into the post for you. If it gets delivered tomorrow, it's /categorically/ not for opening tomorrow (by which, of course, I mean 'later today') ... I do hope that this is clearly understood

G'nite!

Ta..

Here I am, displacing instead of tackling the morning bout of bend-stretch-hold again ... ttfn, for (sigh) nearly an hour or so ((@o@))

Same here, except read 'evening bout of scale-arpeggio'...etc.

(kk slides a 'd' into the wine glass) ...

Three sets done today, even the evening lot ... what a lil goody two shoes am I

G'night!

...oh ta...



now really, before I earn my hangover...

Pace yourself, munchkin, timing is everything innit ...

G'nite!







(mutters) arpeggios, I know what an arpeggio is, my friend Psi told me that the Unstable Table features arpeggios

Yes that's right!

Ooh, for me? Ta, but you have some too, there's too much for one

All this reminds me of something I've been meaning to ask for er ah um (not unlike the other question I asked you, as this one is of the same vintage):

How much keyboard work you do these days? And, possibly, so which instrument(s) were you doing your arpeggios on? (As ever, you don't need to answer this here, or at all.)

Are you having a good day?

Yes, ta.

The answer is guitar. I haven't done any keyboard for ages, I'll have to get back to it....
