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

 I'm going to leave h2g2 alone fo the next four days... If you see me here then you can yell at me for breaking my "fast". Oh wel... here goes... wish me... I'm gon-

But you were still here four hours after this post! Does that mean the fast is over so soon?

-Jimi X

Nope, haven't actually started yet. It starts tomorrow.

So you're getting your fix now like any good junkie would?

*giggles* I can't actually seem to pull myself away from the computer, it's really annoying. I'm starving but I can't get away long enough to get some thing to eat.

EAT something!! And while you're up, another pint would be devine....

Right... I won't even try to understand that.

Oh, by the way, it's YOUR fault our (Jo & me) poems were "brilliant" and "delightful to read" and it's YOUR fault we got A's.

(thank-you)

Lisa

How about that! I guess I does know something about poems!!

From now on I'll come to you for advice on English homework !!

*giggle*

But I'm not English!

So what. Okay now I'm doing a thing about the ancient greeks... Colin's page might help... I gotta write about going back in a time machine to a time in the past and i picked greeks.

They're treating us like infants!!!!

Speaking as an ancient greek....

Please note that all of our temples weren't really white. We used paints and pigments, banners and wood, it's just that they all decayed over the centuries, leaving plain white stone!

It gets tiresome to have people believe the only colour in our city-states was white!


BTW: All true!

Riiiight. Are you feeling all right?!

I had a dream last night about the people whose nicknames get to be in bold italics. Very strange, Ithink.. can't remember...

Couldn't feel better...

Just a dash of hemlock and alls right with the world again!!

Riiiight...





Are you sure you're alright? Not.. dead?

Far from it....
I'm a stoic today!

Talking to you or Colin helps to stretch my vocabulary. I alwayshave a dictionary nearby

Lisa

Which one?

I prefer Webster's Ninth New Collegiate, however, I've heard good things about the 10th edition!

An Oxford Minidictionary which is falling apart. No correction, *has* fallen apart. Or there's that very old one... or the very new one..

We have a lot of dictionaries.

I looked up the word "dictionary" in a dictionary once. Here, let me quote:

"n. a book that lists and explains the words of a language or the topics of a subject."

If it was a dictionary *I* had written I would have put "You stupid idiot" as the definition.

And the word thesaurus is in the thesaurus. "Book of synonyms."

Sorry to bore you, you've probably dozed off by now.

Lisa

No, not at all...well actually I did knock off early last night!

Those definitions remind me of something....




Oh yes! The instructions on a box of toothpicks!
