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

Today being september the 11th i felt i should do a guide entery, though not to remember or glorify Americans.
Admittedly the people who died in the towers were civillians and therefore i do feel sorry for the families. But to use it as an excuse to assemble an army and march across every nation that doesnt 'buy American' (Afganistan for instance) is absolutely appauling.
The second gulf war was an excuse by one dictator to seeze lands from another.
What Bush failed to realise is that the Iraq people are feircely idependent and many American troops have been KIA. Thats why they now want to pull out for a UN force to take there place and die instead.
Dont get me wrong, the americans as a people are great... until they have to make difficult desicions like who should lead the most powerful nation on the planet.
As to the war on terror the Isrealli's have been terrorising the palestinnians for ages (even going so far as to invade there lands and claim them as there own) yet Bush et al support them, why?
As regards to British troops i have a cousin in Iraq as i speak. The war is wrong and i think he is a fool for fighting there.

Anyway enough moaning about america before they all start complaining.
My second thermoplyae article begins on monday. I'm in the process of gathering research. I plan to do an extremely detailed guide entery which will probibly take the best part of two months to complete. Weapons, armour, formations, terrain. Everything will be detailed. I may even try using guide ML to make it pretty.
I have heard rumours about hootoo down-sizing which seems a shame since ive only just joined, but theres nothing i can do about it.
Since becoming a jedi i have wandered around a bit, trained with another jedi (who strangly enough is American) and had a chat with a sith. good things come to those who wait.
I also bought my rocky horror tickets on monday (hello to the people who are going!). Eight tickets for a thursday night performance. Brilliant! student night!
For those of you that know what it is i'm off to games day on the 14th and i'm still unsure as whether or not to enter the painting competition. My dwarf crossbow could be finished in time but the lure of my ultramarine terminator is strong. Then again, i could always go manchester and start affresh. So many decisions.

Have a read of my Journal, I did a bit of a rant too.
