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

If a banyan tree had 1000 years in which to grow, would it eventually cover a whole continent?

if i say yes will i start a new cult?

A new cult
Now that's a good idea.
I propose we keep it simple and call it O.

there is already a new continent: ecalpemos A576326

Dropped handlebars, and "go-faster" stripes - well I need something to move me on from either of my two speeds... dead slow and stop.

Anyway, I couldn't reach the ape hangers, they're not designed for arthritic shoulders

Ecalpemos is just across the bay from Erewhon.

sounds like a good place to pick up some fajitas

and some quesadillas. with margaritas

no to mention tequilas

i love tequilas

dangerous stuff, though: the alcohol affects your liver, the salt gives you high blood pressure and the lemon cauterizes your teeth

yeah, isn't it wonderful? there's not one redeeming thing about tequila.

Isn't tequila made from some cactus that's endangered?

i think a couple of years ago, tequila was quite pricy because there was a fungus that did a number on the cactus crop. I believe its ok now.

Is the cactus called aguave or aguare?

agave, i believe

agave it is.

and let's not forget the worm

Tequila
A drink so foul you have to zap your taste buds with salt and lime.

pah, nothing that a gallon of decent vodka won't cure

Oh, I just had this discussion today, Vodka vs Tequila!
It was decided both were equally vile. As was Rum .
