doubledecks

three bombs exploded in london's subway system today. then another one exploded at the back of a double decker bus. so far thirty-seven people are confirmed dead, and hundreds other injured. if you know anyone who live in london, or just a big fan of british football, right now would probably be the best time to ask if they're okay.

be careful with public transportation. the US is also a member of the G8. it would not be a surprise if we get a follow up attack. let's not have a seven-eleven, shall we?

on a side note, WOMEN: if you're aware that you just put on a lot of make up and perfume, please. TAKE THE STAIRS. everyone knows how bad the ventilation inside an elevator is. and if your perfume was able to neutralize the body odor of that unknown fat sweaty guy who was in the elevator with me earlier today, you were definitely wearing TOO MUCH perfume.

i paid $8 for a copy of the restaurant at the end of the universe. any book that starts with a two-paragraph intro that goes like this:

there is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

there is another which states that this has already happened.


and a chapter two that starts like this:

like all vogon ships it looked as if it had been not so much designed as congealed. the unpleasant yellow lumps and edifices which protruded from it at unsightly angles would have disfigured the looks of most ships, but in this case that was sadly impossible. uglier things have been spotted in the sky, but not by reliable witnesses.

in fact to see anything much uglier than a vogon ship you would have to go inside it and look at a vogon. if you are wise, however, this is precisely what you will avoid doing because the average vogon will not think twice before doing something so pointlessly hideous to you that you will wish you had never been born-or (if you are a clearer minded thinker) that the vogon had never been born.

in fact, the average vogon probably wouldn't even think once...


is bound to be an awesome book. read away.
