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

With modems aglow,

And eye rims the colour of spinach

Once, watching "Granada" on Cable,

I noticed a reference to Babel

This is fishy I thought

Flicking to Eurosport

(Hello, just butting in...that's what happens when you end up on the front page )

And remaining emotion'ly stable.

This forum is on the front page,


(woo-hoo! Break out the champagne!)

Let's see how clean y'all can keep this one:

There once was a man from Nantucket

Whose wife had a fur-lined bucket

her husband was pissed

She'd broken his wrist

(nope - not touching that one! Thanks for the front-page coverage, Yoz!)

When she'd aimed for his leg and he'd ducked it

(What's up Peet? What did you have on YOUR mind I wonder?)

OK another one...

There once was a writer named Douglas

who said all of his writing was drug-less

The words kept cracking

Because he was lacking

the chemicals to off-set his smugness (sorry!)

(or how about)

Any tea - you see, he was mugless.

Wilst hitch-hiking out on the road,
