For some daft reason I never twigged with Level 42 though... Wood for trees perhaps :-)

So, i posted a reply on the HST (Hunter S. Thompson) thread, it was
my 142nd (of course this one spoils that),

We were protesting the on-campus recruiting, and they took a
picture of my t-shirt. So, they cut off my head. ..... but,
you can "just" make out the edge of my dancing dolphins towel at

What's with the girl?

And I recently submitted my little writing piece to 42fans@gmail.com. Guess how long it was.

G'wan, just guess.

Two in the last couple of days:

On a quadratic equation, I got 42 and 2. I plugged them both back in. Guess which was the one that didn't work?

I've been taking racket 42 in gym lately. God, how I hate badmiton.

I did edit it down to that, which kinda ruins the randomness, but eh well.



Coincidentally, I love badminton. I do, however, hate tennis with a smouldering passion. I wonder how that works out.

No, I just suck at it. I can't serve to well, can't hit long shots to save my life, and I injure my back even more since I spend over half the period picking the stupid birdie off the ground.

before we went to do our show we stand up against the wall and "concentrate" and that wall appeared to be the "wall of fame" in that particular school, and one of the jerseys in there has the number 42...that just made my day


...and then...me and the guard watched "Meet the Fokkers" last night at that cheap theatre place...and i just smiled really big when i saw that the address of Isabel (the spanish babysitter) is 4142....

the only downside is i saw the bastard who broke my heart... [/b]

I thought this was highly coincidental. There's a contest of some kind to win a free car/trip, and we happen to be handing out entry forms at work. In the fine print it say limit 42 entries per person. I would think anything over 1 is odd, but 42? Weirded out.

Peter Griffin is 42 years old!

Last night on FamilyGuy:

"And how old do you think daddy is?"

Stewie: "forty-two..."

No, but I severely bruised my... coccyx.

Ah Hecate! I waft (in full motion) my towel in the general direction
of the moon (let;s see, it should be, no, that's a flourescent light,
that direction, no that's an opaque window) -- it's night here, so
the NEXT time I see that lunar orb, i shall waft my towel towards
your multiflourious presence.

Went to take my art history exam today, the only locker left (more
or less, there *were* those lockers that are way down the end
of the next hall). Locker 402 (hmmm, I see, that 42 is already
been seen around town with "0" -- could this be somethng that
the poparazzi might be interested in???

-- again, fab posting.

and of course



wibble.

RT!
How goes the art?

Art goes well; art history... Oh, well, it's the "language of art".

I'm trying to finish out my associates degree, so i'm taking all
of these courses see. And of course, i'm still writing for the paper
-- despite all of the hacking they do to my treasured copy. (Egad,
what do you mean i split an infinitive by acciden! I split them
with great care!!!! ;)

Right now, i'm exploring pure compositions, mainly the interplay
between the organic and the geometric. For example, how abstract
can i make a duck and still have it look duck-like. I'm sure you
see the importance of this particular topic; esp to my own art
work.

Got up here early today, since i was supposed to turn in my story
on Monday (it's now tue). but of course these theatre people have
what we call "day jobs", hence they aren't here until the night. So,
you see the prob. The thing is that i go by the newsroom, and it
seems like no one is ever there. Mostly we (ahem) artistes are here
from 8am to 10pm, 7 days a week -- or at least ways when our day
job doesn't interfere. (Would that i could get some more hourse,
right now, i'm limited to 9-1/2 hours a week (work study, as a
"gallary assistant" (read that as glorified janitor, postal card stamper,
and table cleaner)... Hmmm, i really should type all of this stuff
into my blog, yuh think.

But, on a more postive note, i'm begging (once again) to think that
i'm getting the hang of painting. Thank Zarquon's Flying Fish that
my printwork is still strong. Actually *that* is going quite well, but
it's hard to get time on the press. (The art dept suffers from its
own success we have more students now who are interested in
doing print work -- of course we have to baby sit them, and of
course some of them are *real* prima donnas. "Don't you know
that i graduated magna cum lauda at my prep school in art???"
-- 'course that don't mean shit if they don't know the basics
of print-room ettiquite ?sp? Oh, well.

Anyway, i'll try to post some more of my art work on my web site
(along with newest blogging and whine-ing's)...

http://www.angelfire.com/art2/pizo/imag ... index.html

Note one of the prints has a nice fine OIL stain on it! Often the case,
people put up their work on the drying shelves (after taking it off
of the drying line), and lo! it's not dry!!!!! The idea is that it's a
2-stage process. Oh, don't get me started.

I think that you should know that i'm feeling particularly depressed,
as Marvin would say.

Whoo hoo, only about 2 months to h2g2!

Well, got to go off and "man" the Amnesty International Table over
in the S building. (back to my Hippy roots!) now if only i could
get some lucrative commisions (sighs slightly, gets up and hobbles
over to S building -- carefully avoiding any non-existent loads of
horse hockey).

Circular edge ... it speaks to me

I just realized that the address that they were looking for in Finding Nemo was:

P. Sherman
42 Wallaby Way, Sydney


actually, there's a lot of 42 reference in Finding Nemo, but that one is the most noticeable...

im such a dork.

With an arm full of underwear,

He's very obviously not spent much time around here!

Geduld...noch sieben Stunden... (im not sure that's right, Nellodee?)

I was just watching the show "Lost" and the whole episode revolved around these curse numbers and the last number was...yes, 42. It made me kind of sad that they were cursed though...

There's been a few 42 refrences on Lost. I can't remember where they were, though.

By the way, the numbers were 4 8 15 16 23 42, if anyone wondered.

Yeah, and on the lottery show, they announced all the numbers, but said, "And the magic number is 42." Or something to make it stand out even more from the others, and be more obvious that they were making a reference.
