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

My parents are from Jersey
From which part are you?

I'm not from Jersey but would like to welcome you to Aitchtu Jeetu anyway. I hope you enjoy your stay. A couple of tips: 1, clicking on the "Who's Online at the moment," at the foot of the welcome page will give you a list of your favourite people - if your favourite people are looking at Aitchtu Jeetu at the same time as you. 2, don't drink the water.

Had to read the Aitchtu Jeetu a few times before I knew what in the world you were talking about
I read a long thread about How to pronounce WWW a while ago, so I should have recognized it...

Thanks for the helpful hints... I'm especially glad about the second one. I'll just have something not quite but almost entirely unlike tea, instead.

I take it from your page that you're from England...
Lovely country! I was just there 3 weeks ago. I was going to skip the plane home, and stay there, but then Logic came to mind, and it told me that I had no money, nor a place to stay. Stupid Logic...


Hmm... How does one get to be an ACE, anyway? Seems like the letters A, C, and E, when put together and included betwixt parentheses, form a pretty prestigious title abbreviation. I mean, Assistant Community Editor. Wow. It almost inspires awe. But not quite

How to become an ACE.
First you need lots and lots of qualifications and to be really, really clever. Then you need a huge bank balance and to be president of some very important company like Microsoft or Piggly Wiggly.

Or you contact Peta (on the welcome page) and she just says "Yeah, you can turn on a computer you can be an ACE."

Each approach is just as valid

I think I can do that... Thanks

-QotPW

You're welcome. By the way if you want one of these type : - ) but without the spaces.

Thanks
I know that, but I usually do "" that one in the games that I play, so it's force of habit... err.... I mean

-QotPW

The games you play... intriguing! Specially when you have to have a grin!

You sound like a character from a Terry Pratchett book...
Never read the whole book, though. I started to read it, and then got the trilogy

Thetrilogy. Yes I've heard of that. Yes I've heard of that. Yes I've heard of that. Was it painful?

I take it you read Terry Pratchett books, too?
Quite painful, though...

*hums tunelessly, stubs ground with toe and makes no eye contact whatsoever.*
Nope. I haven't read any... but I thought that one day I might...

Uh huh... They have places for people like you

I thnk I live in one. Or do you mean libraries?

you're a sly one, aren't ya?

I am
