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

I do not look like Dudley Moore. Particularly not since he died.

But ts this Trout guy, right, and he's persecuted me ever since, well, quite time ago, just because there was this picture on the internet, and he thought I looked a bit Dud-ish. And yes, OK, a bit on the short side, possibly.

It's gone now. Hah

Only there's another one. I didn't know it was there till today, when I said to this guy who was my friend till earlier this evening; I said:

"So, who do I look more like, then, Robert de Niro or Dudey Moore?"

and he said :

"Dudley Moore, obviously. And as for the picture that your salmonid nemesis thought was Dud-like, well, he should have seen THIS one..."

No-o-o-o-o-o-o

I'm just so relieved that none of you will ever find it. Particularly not that fish-git.

So you are not Peter Cook either...

Ever is a short word. Not as short as Dud, granted...but, well. Never say never. Oh, I've said it twice. Dammit. Excuse me while I aetherise.

Oddly enough, I used to work for a guy called Peter Cook.

But don't read anything into it!!!

I don't think Dudley Moore looked like a seal. But DeNiro in Awakenings did sort of look sealish.

I first saw DeNiro in The Deerhunter, and he was amazing then. Didn't know he was humorous until Analyse This came out. it was almost "English" style comedy

Nah.

I thought he was at his best in Raging Seal.

(though I also admit to a soft-spot for "Meet the Phocoids")

I always wanted Dudley to remake the old Matt Helm movies.

Hey, Hyp

What I didn't tell you is that in the same place where there's that incriminating picture of me looking a bit like...well, never mind...

Anyhow, in the same place, right, there's two downloadable videos featuring me, on screen continuously, for a combine total of THREE HOURS.

How's that for rapture? Eat your heart out, de Niro

Three Hours! Saalam, Oh Great One.

Will he roll over again soon mummy?

Trout Montague looks forward to the sequel to Taxi Driver. It is called Taxi Dermy. Robert De Niro stars as a mentally unstable taxi-driver who returns to Newfoundland to stuff a seal good and proper.

Oh come on. That is the Dud among Phocoids. And you are so obviously standing on something.

Definitely a step ladder hidden in that photo.

That's some step-ladder.

I received some instruction today, part of which was on the "treatment of bleeding seals" and "whether you would bother".

I've looked at that picture, and I think someone has probably retouched it.

I don't own a tie in that shade of blue.
