Overtime and a wedding 445 miles north will keep me away from h2g2 for the weekend. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. See ya in a few days.

PIRATE EMERGENCY!
Posted Jun 9, 2001
Anyone who has links to sites which tell me more about YOHO AHOY, please email to me IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!!
I was just poking around in the main BBC site and found some vague references to this new PIRATE SHOW (why am I obsessively drawn to children's pirate shows and toys? go figure) and I must know all about it.
PLEASE! HeLP! Need fix! More cartoon pirates! (Apparently one of them is named POOP and there's another named GROG who has hooks for both hands?!??!?! Gott in himmel, it sounds so grotesquely charming!!!! Please get those Teleguts off the air and put MILLIONS OF TEENY CLAY PIRATES on the air instead!)
YOHO AVAST!!!!

Insubstantial and Expired Quote
Posted Jun 2, 2001
from Don Quixote de la Mancha by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, trans. T. Smollett:
"Happy age, and happy days were those, to which the ancients gave the name of golden; not, that gold, which in these our iron-times, is so much esteemed, was to be acquired without trouble, in that fortunate period; but, because people then, were ignorant of those two words MINE and THINE; in that sacred age, all things were in common; no man was necessitated, in search of his daily food, to undergo any other trouble than that of reaching out his hand, and receiving it from the sturdy oak, that liberally invited him to pull his sweet and salutary fruit..."
Another damn Anarcho-Primitivist!

"Swearing is an art form. You can express yourself much more directly, much more exactly, much more succinctly with properly used cuss words."
