The Largest Mammal on Land: Truly a majestic creature.

My_design says...

So awesome.
Firstly that someone did this.
Secondly that other people had the same Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy thoughts that I did.
One of my favorite parts of the book.

KAI story on Colbert

Marston Smith and his electric cello @ Encinitas Street Fair

oritteropo says...

What I found interesting is that he made some of the noises from Hitch Hiker's guide theme (first TV series, not the original radio show or the remakes) that I had assumed came from a synth, but now assume came from one of those

EVE Online: The Butterfly Effect

Mazex says...

I don't think the fact that the learning curve in Eve is harder than Wow's explains why it has more subscribers, I mean, I doubt many of the WoW players have even tried Eve. I think it's mainly because of the massive amount of money that Blizzard put behind Wow. The people who made Eve; CCP, have one product, and that's Eve, and they publish it themselves now. That's explains why Wow has more subscribers.

Personally I try most MMO's and whilst I'm interested in spaceships, whacking things as a mythical creature is more appealing for some reason. Maybe's its because I read Tolkien's books before I read the Hitch hiker's guide to the galaxy.

People of the world come together to say "Poop"

kulpims says...

it's like douglas adams, hitch-hikers guide to the galaxy, only there were 100.000 people, I think, that said "vap" or something, at the same time. can't remember what - oh, wait, was it the robots from Krikkit and their ships coming out of hyperspace?

What's the whole story on the fire?

In reply to your comment:
his cabal got whacked a few years back when a fire destroyed some homes did it not???

Have always wondered what the next day would be like if everyone on the planet had a simultaneous Hoffman experience...i.e. dosed but not knowing when or how long exactly.....Ever read Riverworld??
Hooray for Bucky Fuller, whom Alpert quotes here, the most sane models for civilization ever ignored and suppressed, and for te forn quote remembered from Leasry, that pshycho...."Trust Your Nervous System"

kinda like the cover of the Hitch hiker's Guide...."Don't Panic!"

Portuguese Hitchhiking Ghost (nsfw?)

bnsa says...

MLX, I'm HERE!!!

Ghost? Nah... but a wonderful Viral video! Uses a lot of common themes (lost, dark night, ghost hitch hiker who happens to be a woman who also happens to wear white) She is either trying to get home, relay a message, or just likes to go for rides.

Also, the "one person survived" and "police are baffled" gives credibility (along with any given date - in this case 1983), A+ for special fx of the ghostie affecting the camera. (IRL ghosts cause a white magnetic line that goes from top down when recording.

Not to mention they suck batteries dry almost instantly!) The cut scene from one video to another is the blur and another A+ for the dripping fluid scene at the end. Being Halloween, its a nice scare and feels real enough to be spooky!

Underground nuke explosion

swampgirl says...

Oh, Snake that was horrible!

I prefer this:

"Now it is such a bizarrely improbably coincidence that anything so mindbogglingly useful [the Babel fish] could have evolved by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see it as a final and clinching proof of the non-existence of God.
The argument goes something like this: "I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."
"But," says Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED."
"Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic."
-- Douglas Adams, The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy (book one of the Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy series), p. 50

I guess you'd have to have read Hitch Hiker's Guide to appreciate what a Babel fish is.... ;-)
