There was a point to this story, but it has temporarily escaped the chronicler's mind.

quatchi		2013-02-17 09:27:58 PM

Super Mega Pod sounds like a villain in a Micheal Bay movie.

Howard always thought there was something weird about the new guy who couldn't speak in rhyme, and who thought "Flipper" was a cool name.

LightGiver		2013-02-17 10:50:22 PM

All you really need to know for the moment is that the universe is a lot more complicated than you might think, even if you start from a position of thinking it's pretty damn complicated in the first place.

Krymson Tyde		2013-02-17 10:54:11 PM

If things Douglas Adams predicted start coming true, it's time to start drinking, because we are BONED and we are boned SOON.

Pratchett is better. Caroll was better. The English language is full of writers with a sense for the absurd. Adams is a peer: the Nobility of frivolity, capital N. But not the best.

I like Pratchett and Adams equally.

The Sandwich Maker, Dirk Gently, as good as anything that Pratchett has written. Pratchett has written more. Pratchett has also been losing it. Which has been sad.
Caroll? Nothing wrong with oldie-timie. but meh

Just wrap your towel around your head, because if you can't see the End of the World, it can't see you. So you're good.

Losing Adams so young and with Pratchett losing his faculties so young PROVES the universe HATES funny. And if there are two funnier people, I've never read them.

Really, the Dirk Gently books are much funnier than the overhyped Hitchhiker ones.

To expound, I don't think I have ever laughed as hard as Adams describing Heathrow airport.

Because sometimes, it's true.

There's been many great philosophers. None have yet risen to supplant Diogenes, for example. He's clearly the best hobo OF ALL TIME.

Losing your job and assets is a good way to wind up not paying those bills.
