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

Thanks!
Yeah, Peta said she would add me to the list!

And I still havent gotten around to updating my "Pulldown List"!

NM

Tut tut!

I hear Faith is as evil as ever!

Yep! And she don't get any nicer!

NM

What time is it where you are by the way? (It's 11:39p.m. here)

6:15........should be about a 5 hour difference. It makes "Firetalk" and real time chats a royal pain!!!

NM

It's now 1:10 a.m. here and I'm very tired, but I'm e-mailing my friend while I can, once I've done that I'm off to sleep. I'm surprised that Shim hasn't called me off yet....

A few of us in "e-circles" attempt to get together now and then for live voice chat. It's a blast trying to find a time when folks from England, Australia, Holland, Utah(US) and Monsy and I (Alabama, US) are actually awake and coherent at the same time!!!LOL The time zones extend across a full 24 hour scale!

Needless to say, it don't happen too often!

NM

I invaded h2g2 today. Literally! Shim actually took me into TDV and gave me a mini tour! I fiddled on Peta's keyboard as well, not that it matters!

Congrats!!!! I wish I could check the place out...alas, it's a very long and expensive journey from here!

NM

Do you ever come to England? I think they should film an episode of Buffy in England!

I've never been outside the US.

Monsy and I were hopeing to make the H2G2 anniversary, but it's not looking promising!

Buffy in Britain.......great platform for Giles!

NM

And Spike! I think people tend to forget he's English too!

I've never been outside the UK so I guess we're almost the same. You should talk to Jeni X, she's got some craze about Americans.

She's http://www.h2g2.com/U108443 by the way. And why do you always sign your name as NM?

I've also never been out of the UK

Spike just rocks.

We said that! Sorry.

The UK is much like the US....there are a lot of places you can go, and never leave it!

Trust me, over here there is no doubt in anyones' mind that Spike is from some part of the UK(usually folk automatically say"England" or "Britain").

Errrmm..."NM". You can see my "Form Letter" on my homepage!

NM

It's funny as it took me a long time to realise that Spike actually talks with the exact same accent as me! Now you have some kind of idea how I sound. Giles speaks in a very posh way, something I'd never do unless I was in a weird mood. Who do you think you sound like?

Cool!!! I love Spikes' accent!

Me? Well...it's hard to say. My accent changes from moment to moment. It depends on energy level, alcohol ingestion and surroundings!!LOL

Growing up in the southern US, that da*n drawl tends to sneak up now and then. For the most part, though, it's a blend of a light southern and a far western accent.

Who I sound like?......I have no idea!

NM

Actually Spike is slightly posher than me, but I do speak a lot like him.

I don't know what a western US accent sounds like. I can barely tell the difference between someone Scottish and someone Welsh. My accent tends to change depending on my surroundings, and if I'm with a group of people I automatically start to adapt my accent to sound a lot like theirs.

Surely there's someone famous you can compare yourself to?

Oh, and just getting the latest Buffy circular through it says that Oz returns to get Willow back but she's got to sort her sexuality out first before she can do anything.
