Homeschoolers?

[Booklover]

Aren't we on that magical page? Page 42!

The problem (or lack of such) with homeschooling is that you can't not concentrate in Galactic History as Zaphod Beeblebrox won't be in the cybercubicle beside you if you aren't at school.

[Verdauga]

Oh, so now you figure it out?

[shisteer of nothing much]

Fine, Eb. You can tell them if you make it really dramatic. (in story format)

Can you try breaking that down so we can actually understand it, please? (and maybe use less double negatives)

That's good. Our church starts at 9:30, but we're usually slightly/not so slightly late. *shrugs* The lot of one in a big family with young children, I guess.

*chuckles* I think it might also be something to do with homeschooling. We're not used to getting out of our pajamas til lunchtime so it's a bit of a novelty being organised by nine thirty.

I literally chuckled out loud when I read this.

Oooooooooooooooh!

*waits for Eb to tell story*

[Kade Rivok]

*Also waits.*

42 is the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life the Universe and Everything. Galactic History is a class where you learn about the history of the galaxy. Zaphod Beeblebrox is the President of the Galaxy, so in other words a figurehead. Famous for doing stupid things. Ford Prefect (his cousin) was distracted by what Zaphod was doing in the cybercubicle next to him, so he wasn't concentrating when they learnt about the Krikkit Wars.

I knew that 42 was the answer to The Question (that's probably quite a significant spoiler, by the way) but I had no idea who those people are. Thank you for clearing things up. (though there are other ways of getting distracted besides having the prime minister of space sitting next to you)

[Ebantu the Kararehe]

Okay, she answered the phone and the person on the other end said "Hi, can I speak to your husband please?"!

[Kade Rivok]

HAH

Did she transfer the call to Verdauga?

[Verdauga]

I DID get an odd phone call the other day....

[shisteer of nothing much]

No, it went something like this:

Teer: "Hello, blah blah blah, removed for privacy, speaking."

Customer: "Hi, can I talk to your husband, please?"

Teer: "Umm, no, not that I know of. Should I get my dad, the locksmith, for you?"

Customer: "Oh, sorry. Yeah, I'll talk to your dad, please."

Teer: "Okay, I'll just get him."

[Kade Rivok]

You have an odd name.

[Verdauga]

Yeah, I think the "removed for privacy" should be in brackets.

[Kade Rivok]

Why would she put her name in brackets?
