Why ThursdayAgain?
Ford Prefect: How would you react if I told you that I’m not from Guildford after all, but from a small planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse?
Arthur Dent: I don’t know. Why? Do you think it’s the sort of thing you’re likely to say?
Ford Prefect: Drink up. The world’s about to end.
Arthur Dent: This must be Thursday. I never could get the hang of Thursdays.
Why Rhino House?
“The boys were all feeling rough
Dear God we’d all had enough……
And the dressing room was filthy & cold
With orange wallpaper, 40 years old.
It stank like a Rhino House.”
Who is the jester figure?
His name is Hugo, & no, I don’t know why he looks miserable.
What is a charivari & why is ThursdayAgain almost one?
charivari n.
1. a discordant mock serenade (often to newlyweds), made with instruments & mock-instruments such as pans, kettles, etc. Usually delivered in the form of a parade.
2. a confused noise; din
[from French, from Late Latin caribaria headache, from Greek karēbaria, from karē head + barus heavy].
As a blog, ThursdayAgain has the advantage of only being a very small din, is only mildly confused (or concussed, if you prefer) & can be enjoyed indoors – hence “almost”.
Should I take advice from the Agony Aunts or plan based on the ThursdayAgain horoscopes?
NO!
Do try & keep up……
How cool is this?
Very, very cool, since you asked. 😄
hi. I nominate you for Liebster Award. http://kalabalu.wordpress.com/2013/01/26/salti-di-gioia-da-condividere/-
The only drawback of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is that people look funny at you if you read it on the train. Perhaps it also had a little bit to do with the fact that I was laughing out loud…
But at least the large “DON’T PANIC” on the cover helps everyone to relax a little….
True… So actually I should do it more often. I’m really doing them a favour…
👍
Hugo, please upgrade to I can like twice, at least!
I now have a new word in my vocabulary – charivari. I like it.
